3.5 years in Aus & now I must go

Avatar

My time in Sydney is almost done.  I have just 10 days left until I fly out of Australia.  It has been a unforgettable experience living here, I have made soooo many friends that I know I will see again (Some friends I have never met face to face) one day…. hopefully next year visiting me in Vancouver!

I am super sad to be leaving… especially since I wont get to be at the Shred down unda.  But as the next chapter begins I already know its going to be a good one.  Thanks to two amazing friends I have a sweet little pad to move into in West Van and I am so excited to explore the area I can not wait.  Rider and JustGiver have helped make Sydney feel like a home for the last 3 and a half years and now have set me up in a new home.  They are 2 amazing inspirational people that I am so glad I can call friends.

Well enough cheese, a big shout out to all those I got the pleasure of meeting here in Syd its been a blast.  If you come to Van look me up, and to all those in the Vancouver area I am in some serious need of a Kokanee and some poutine so let me know who is making the best pub food in Van!

Brad, it’s been an absolute pleasure. So stoked we were able to cross paths through Boardworld and no doubt develop a very strong friendship. It’s been unreal hanging out with you, going on photo shoots, and getting to know Nancy and the two doggies. Michelle and I can’t wait to catch with you guys when you get here. Also Blackcomb is now staying open till May 31st, so I’m sure we’ll be able to get a few days in! I’ll have a case of cold Kokanees waiting for you! You’re right, when one chapter ends, another one begins - let’s just hope Mizu Kuma feels the same way!  grrr

Thanks all,

I know I will be back at some point.  I am super stoked to take my photography to the next level and the Vancouver area is just what I need.

Mizu you have no idea how excited I am to be able to work full time!  haha

Finney I plan on hitting Blackcomb a few times before they close… lets make some plans!

And I should be on here way more in the future as Canada has better dial up then the Australian broadband lol

Looking forward to starting the new chapter!
