Everything what i need is a new Start and when I kicked out of my comfort zone I got this chance. I needed a time out! a new start! something different. Sometimes life is a bitch, but the universe has always a better plan for you. My friend Paulo from Brazil just wrote me he is going to work in Australia for a few years and asked me if i wanna join. There was only one right way to walk. Escape! I've made the decision to do a year of work and travel in Australia. Hoping to recharge my batteries for life and make some new experiences. Now it's about making my life completely new. The plan is to arrive in Australia in mid-December. What will I experience? Will it be as I imagine? What if I get homesick? What if I can not find a job? Can i forget what i want to forget? Can i find the right way for the Future? All alone on the other side of the world ... 21.10.2017
There are so many little things to think about... a valid passport, international driver's license, health insurance, visa, flight booking, suitcase packing (and taking the right things with you) and, and, and ... The visa should be applied first. I'm really lucky again. Five minutes after the application came the confirmation. "Work and Holiday Visa" issued! 04.11.2017
On December 10, 2017 at 21:00 o'clock with Emirate's to Dubai and two days later on my way to Sydney! The adventure of my life can begin. Until then, there are still many things need to be done... Most important things are worked out, job, car, health insurance and things (which you do not need to live but owns ...). The things that I own, but can not use on such a trip, are stored safely in a self-storage. (DVDs, bike, furniture and everything else ...) I can leave my car at Simon's House. Who knows when I will come back and need the car? One of the most important things is the foreign health insurance. I am with Allianz and have paid about 500€ for a year. 18.11.2017
Slowly the day of departure is approaching. Yesterday the guys from the airfield organized a little farewell barbecue for me. Many Thanks. I appreciate that a lot . But at the same time you realize that you can not take all your friends, stuff and family with you. This journey is my, I'm alone. At the moment the hardest thought. "Many people enter your life, but few leave a trace in your heart." If you make such a life change from one day to the next, like me, you realize who your true friends are.. And make a courage. Thank you all for that! That makes the farewell a little easier. 25.11.2017
The last day of work is done. Six years airfield Uetersen. Crazy how time flies. I will always remember the time. With all ups and downs, it was a special time. I learned a lot. Many thanks to all who have always supported me! 01.12.2017
Today I canceled the car Registration. Everything is done. Now all I have to do is pack my suitcase and I'm ready to go! The excitement is rising. I can not wait to get on the plane. Will everything work out as I imagine? The weather forecast look so good, 28C° and sunny! 07.12.2017
10.12.2017 Day of departure. Of course, I didn't slept. The last things are packed. Ready to go. Simon and Coco are so friendly and took me to the airport. Before, we went to the Down under Restaurant to get me in the Australia mood. My parents also come to say goodbye and then I had to go to the security area. Hamburg says goodbye to me from it's best side ... snow! (once every 5000 years snow in Hamburg and of course, when I fly into the summer.) The plane needed to be de icing before we could Take off. With one hour delay i am finale airborne. After 10 seconds, Hamburg disappears into the dark snow clouds, I leaned back and closed my eyes.
The journey starts! Bye bye Hamburg. 10.12.2017
Escape tonight... to a dark grey sky, just close your eyes and wave goodbye. though reality sometimes may seem, imaginary.
