Goodbye Australia, Hello United Kingdom!

Greetings from the motherland! Lots of stuff has happened since I left Australia so this post will be a little more summary-esque than deep and meaningful, but considering I've moved to the otherside of the world, that's probably a good thing, so lets get into it.

Location: Coburg, Australia

Staying with: Chris, Jeremy, Ben & Kiera

What I did: Epic going away, super hangover and just hanging out with friends.

Reflection: Was lovely to hang out with close friends before leaving the country for the year!

Location: Melbourne -> Dubai -> Manchester

Staying with: Emirates Airlines

What I did: * Watched 4 movies (My Best Friend's Wedding, Beauty and the Beast, Paul & Hercules) C4 episodes of TV (Glee, How I Met Your Mother, We Can Be Heroes & IT Crowd)

* Flew over 15 countries in 25 hours

* Met four interesting people who I sat near (Mara from Melbourne, Craig from Cambridge, Lynlee a Mezzo-Soprano opera singer slash music teacher at Eltham High School and Fatima a Zairian woman who lives in Manchester who was returning from her pilgramage to Mecca)

* Drank 4 bottles of San Pellegrino

Reflection: I could barely remember my life before getting on the plane as we descended into Manchester

Location: Glasgow, Scotland

People Met: Chris O'Brien, Adam Scott, Andrew Leitch

What I did: *Met Dave at the airport and we drove to Glasgow

* Visited Hadrian's Wall (Wall from thousands of years ago that used to extend across the England/Scotland border)

* Failed to understand most Scottish accents or pronounce place names

* Jet Lag

* Discovered that I forgot to get my PIN set up for my visa.

* Crashed with Chris & Andrew

Location: York, England

People Met: Lyndsey & Ian Megarry, Ryan Forster, Nathan Waddell

What I did: *Played an extensive game of Snog, Marry, Avoid on the way back down from Scotland.

* Visited the gorgeous city of York.

* Discovered the major similarities in housing in the UK.

* Went to the Jorvik Viking Museum (Hilarious feat. Lame)

* Drove to Nottingham

Thats pretty much it for now! I'm in Nottingham for a few days now and then off to London on Wednesday finally arriving in Tallinn on Friday, so stay tuned for pictures and further reflection later!
