Greetings from Down Under!

4 October 2011
After a year of anticipation, we finally landed in Melbourne last week. Sadly the weather for our first week was just miserable - so wet and cold that I almost wanted to be back in the UK! Luckily we've met some fellow students who are lovely and for now the weather seems to be warming up.

I've scheduled plenty of posts and have limited internet connection here, so am hoping to carry on blogging as normal.

Whilst I'm here, I'm also planning on doing some photo diaries, but for now here are some photos from my first 10 days here:


Have you ever been to Australia? Any tips for a first time visitor?
