      First day

      April 16, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C

      2 years later, I finally arrived in Australia. Couldn't believe how smooth the journey and entry were - no questions on visa, vaccine, covid test, dpd/g2g etc, just looked at my passport and waved me in! All that worry for nothing!
      Got a cab straight to Kate's place grabbing MCD en route. Friendly taxi driver from Pakistan told me to check Scarborough beach and that he thinks aussies are aggressive 😂. Got to kates met Brigsy and Abdul but I was knackered so went straight to sleep. Up at 7.30, met the rest of the housemates and Kates Jack. They have all now gone camping for a few days.
      Went to Mall and sorted sim card, hair cut, warm clothes, phone charger, creams & gels. 40% off h&m and 30% off phone charger and battery pack, very pleased!
      Went to Trigg/Scarborough beach, loved it. Can't quite explain how great it felt to be in such a vast space, after so long on small islands. The vastness of the beach - sand as far as the eye could see (at least 10km) huge waves splashing 100m across the beach. Felt v familiar, must be from a movie when I was younger. A bit chilly but the cold is bearable and welcomed after the sometimes unbearable Thai heat. Though I did need my hoodie! Drove down to North fremantle, stopped off at aldi/woolworths and got chorizo, cheese & pickle to watch the sunset. Had to leave as soon as it set as could no longer stand the cold 😂. Drove home listening to 'My dad wrote a porno' which is hilarious. Just Abdul in tonight, nice guy from Ireland. Currently doing Ramadan. Popped to supermarket and did food shop, had a PERFECT sausage mash gravy & greens for tea. It will work out expensive to cook like this every day so I'm going to have to start cooking in bulk and freezing. Went for evening walk down the road now nice and relaxed, I'm bed by 10.30.
      Still need to sort TFN, Medicare, job. But it is Easter Bank Holiday so has to wait until Tuesday.
      Easter tomorrow and full moon, I feel a strong energy and power from the universe, holding me in the right place. I feel strong and disciplined when thinking of drink or smoke - not craved once dispite it being around the house. I will spend Easter in healthy meditation in the botanical gardens park.
      Its been a while but I am ready. Watch Me rise 😊

      Just remembered the view of Orion out aeroplane window - huge and bright, square with the wing which I was sat above. I was level with him - breathtaking.

      Not seen any strange animals yet, apparently not a great deal in Perth. Trees are different and beautiful, people have all been lovely.

      Saw moon on way home from sunset - huge. Give Power 🌕
