Heading Home

So the time has finally arrived for me to say goodbye to Australia. I've now left Cairns and have arrived in Sydney where I am going to spend my last couple days before my flights back to Canada.

I have had an amazing time living here in Australia for the past year, and have done things I never would have seen myself doing. From sailing to diving, to simply travelling half way around the world on my own.

The truth is, I'm more than a little sad for this all to be coming to an end. I spent the last few days saying goodbye to all my friends in Cairns. I've made tons of amazing friends in the last year and I'm going to miss you guys when I head home. The door is always open though so if any of you guys ever make it to Canada or where ever else I may be don't think twice about stopping in to say hi.

I'm not really sure what I'm going to do with the rest of my time here in Sydney. And I'm finding the weather shockingly cold. It was around 19C today and I was freezing, I'm not sure how I'm going to survive when I go back to Canada. I wouldn't have thought I would have become so completely aclimatized but I guess living in the tropics for almost a year does that to you.

Matinne.
