Sydney!
23 de março de 2023, Austrália ⋅ 🌧 22 °C
Welcome back on my blog!

After 3 month at home I had to travel again and here we go. That time I chooses Sydney as my first destination. I never been before in Australia and I am really excited for my time here.

I arrived yesterday quite late at the airport but I already had the chance to meet a friend again from Bali.

Today I was walking around for hours in the city center. I needed a SIM card, I did some sightseeing and I met another friend. I know here also from Bali btw.

So far I feel really good to be back on the road and like I said I am excited for time here.Leia mais

Katoomba/ blue mountains
28 de março de 2023, Austrália ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C
Three days ago I took the train and a bus to Katoomba. I was excited for some good views and some hikes but the first 2 days the weather was just bad.

Yesterday afternoon then finally some good weather and I had the chance to explore the mountains a bit. Really really beautiful place I highly recommend.

But before the weather becoming good I lost a bit of hope and I booked a flight to the Gold Coast. I am not mad about that decision and happy about a new place.

Now I will take the train back to Sydney airport.Leia mais

Gold Coast
31 de março de 2023, Austrália ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
Gold Coast feels like a city in the USA, big buildings everywhere and so much stuff for tourism.
I had a really good time here and I met some nice people. The hostel was good and I a lot of fun. Much to do is here not, it’s just walking around, chillin at the beach, staying in the hostel or go for something good to eat. Yesterday I met Sebastian for Germany he is a friend from my dad, it was nice to talk with him after the time he had in New Zealand.

I think 3 nights it’s totally enough, so I am on my way now to Brisbane. I heard a lot of good things about the city and the English boys are also there. I am excited to see them again, the last time was on Bali in September (I guess).

I am still confused with the beer here but it tastes good to be fair.Leia mais

North Starbroke Island
2 de abril de 2023, Austrália ⋅ 🌬 23 °C
Trip with the boys and India to the north starbroke island.

It’s a really beautiful place, I saw the first time kangaroos and dolphins. That right now is my „I am in Australia moment“.
The beaches are really nice, the ocean looks great and the weather is perfect.

We had to take a ferry from Cleveland (Queensland) to the island. The ferry is really modern and the restaurant was good.
It’s nice to be with the boys again for some days before I move more north in some days.Leia mais

Brisbane
4 de abril de 2023, Austrália ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
Leaving time in Brisbane.

Four great days in Brisbane with the boys (and India).
The best days I had so far back on the road, the first night was a bit party time but the other days way more chilled.
One day we went to a animal sanctuary but it was like a zoo, so no photos about it because I don’t support zoos! Yesterday we played tennis and the day before we been to the island.
Is always a pleasure to see the boys for some days and I am sure I will see them again.

The city is not as big like Sydney but it’s a better city for me then Sydney.
So many good looking old buildings that’s what a good city need!

Today my trip in the north continues - next stop Sunshine Coast!Leia mais

Normally I try to post something after every stop but that time it’s not that easy because there was not much going on. I mean I still had a great time and met nice people but not much photo places.
Yesterday me and Matt been walking around for a while and on our way back to hostel someone picked us up and we not even hitchhiked. But because of that I want to hitchhike again, so I decided to leave Agnes water earlier then I expected and try my luck on the road.Leia mais

Magnetic Island/ Airlie Beach
14 de abril de 2023, Austrália ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C
Magnetic island is a really nice place!

But let’s start from the beginning. After the last time I been to Airlie beach, a place where a lot of backpacker go. Normally you go there for a skydive or a boat tour. I booked both not and left after one night, I was just in ja mood to hitchhike. So I arrived easy the next day in Townsville, that is the place where I had the ferry to magnetic island. I was really excited to see some koalas in the wild but I was not lucky enough..
It’s a nice island with a lot of small hikes and good beaches. I walked nearly the hole time around to different viewpoints. When I was chillin I played chess on my phone and relaxed in the room.

It’s really hot up here and it’s getting just hotter in the north. I am not the biggest fan when it’s hot like that, but today it does not matter. I am leaving the island right now then I try to get a bus to a good place outside the city and I will hitchhike again. I am excited where I end up this time.Leia mais

Mission Beach
17 de abril de 2023, Austrália ⋅ 🌧 26 °C
Quick stop before cairns! I was hitchhiking again and I tried to get to cairns, but this day was a bit more difficult then other days. I got 4 cars but the first 2 just for really a short time. Then I landed in the middle of nowhere and I just had one more hour sun. It’s really hard to get picked up when it’s dark. Finally someone came and told me he is going to mission beach, so I decided that I go there too for two nights. I met some nice people here and the weather was great for some walking and swimming. The most time I spent with Sam.

The weather today is really shit it’s raining the hole time. Not the best weather for hitchhiking so I will take the greyhound bus to Cairns.Leia mais

Cairns/ Port Douglas
23 de abril de 2023, Austrália ⋅ 🌧 27 °C
Again some more days of traveling. The north is really warm or rainy and humid.
Cairns is a nice city and Port Douglas is also interesting for some days.
Hitchhiking is still really easy, I got a lift today back to Cairns.
The last days been really good, I met so many people and I had a good time.
Not much to say this time, I walk a lot, sweat even more and enjoy just living.
A bit sad that I can’t go more north, there is no hostel and hotel is to expensive for me.
Maybe I will come back another time with a car.

So I am at the airport now, until next time.Leia mais

Camping / Loadstone
30 de abril de 2023, Austrália ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
One day camping with the gang from the hostel.
So you can see I am back with the boys and back in Brisbane. Next week I will look for jobs here in the city or somewhere else.

We went with a big group camping and is was really nice and chill. Weather was perfect, no signal, some good conversations and a quite cold night.
I forgot my sleeping bag but I was clever and stole Niall his blanket when he was sleeping.

It’s nice to socialize more with the people here, makes it even better to stay and work here. We will see how that works out.

On our way back we broke one of our wheels but the boys fixed it quick and we went back to Brisbane.Leia mais
