With two weeks notice in April, my university gives me notice that I leave for Australia. Destination Brisbane, where will you be doing an internship for five months at the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Queensland. Fortunately
Emirates tariffs do not vary depending on the period of advance you book the flight. With a certain nostalgia in the heart left Italy to go literally across the world.
After six-hour flight to Dubai where I could not sleep a wink because of the neighbor as well as snoring smelled like a polecat, I expect 16-hour direct flight. I have a few hours of time to explore the Dubai airport and get to know a Yankee who was returning home to marry an Indian girl and was going to see the graduation of his son in Atlanta. Of course my English is just disgusting .. despite this I was able to interact and understand something from these guys in transit to the land of millionaires.
Once on board the time never go .. especially if you do not know what the hell you have to look for hours! After half an hour of sleep .. I woke up and wondered .. And now I'm doing other 15.30 hours? With the feeling of panic (I want to get off, I want to get off, I want to get off!) I decided to stretch a bit 'legs walking around the plane .. bad idea .. I hit the arm of an Aussie trying to drink a coffee .. While I try to apologize, kindly sent me the guy to fuck off ..
Trapped by an Aussie in the window seat sleeper, I saw myself 4 / 5 movies and ate like a pig .. But how often bring food to pass on intercontinental flights? More if I did not understand what was passed breakfast, lunch or dinner.
It took 3 days to reach their destination, including 22 hours of flight, airports and zone differences.
The first thing I saw in Australia was the sun ... But how? The sun is also in Italy .. Yes but it was a different color .. was there to tell me "Honey, you are officially down under."
Thanks GOD!
My friend Laura had arrived in Australia a few weeks before me and was kind enough to host me at his house for a week, in the meantime I would look for accommodation near where I was supposed to go to work and saw that Laura wanted a house in the center, we tried to split a double.
fuooooco Week! Hovels at exorbitant prices .. But where have happened?
At the end we opt for the only solution available .. WEST END, apartment shared with an Italian boy .. Yay .. But I was not coming here to learn English? However
support of a friend the first week was really important .. so I'm happy with my choice.
Monday, May 10th begins my experience with the Chamber of Commerce. Relaxed atmosphere, who would have thought ..
happy with the choice I made, I begin to enter the mechanism .. if not that .. a storm rages on the Board of Directors .. President, Secretary-General and Trade officer resigned damage .. And now?
E 'was interesting to follow the change of management, although a bit' unsettling ..
I'm glad to have met the great Francesco Maria and bubbly. Thanks also to Mary
love with laughter and nights spent together! The adventure continues
new management, new friends ..
Ada Travel is a dreamer like me .. nice to have someone nearby to talk to their interests.
