A few highlights will add more soon.

A lots happened for me in the last couple of weeks in Melbourne I'm now into my third week and learning so much about my self as well as having a really great time... 

Heres a view highlights: 

st Kilda for a walk arriving on the beach with a beautiful sunset and some cute penguins 

Victoria street markets, which was great fun lots of fruit and veg, lots of other things to.. 


This is Sale. I was offered me a lovely place to stay while I found a job.  I helped around the house and helped look after her son. I saw some cool birds and animals and saw the Victorian countryside. 

Met my new Italian Friends 
Stefania and Giofrancio (hope this is spelt right) 


During those weeks I took trips into Melbourne for a interview and to explore the city some more. In that week I met a lovely family whom were looking for a nanny and they loved me so much that they gave me the job. 

I moved on the Friday into balwyn North house sitting until they get back from there summer holidays.

I spent a view days hanging on with my Italian friends enjoying Melbourne together. 




Spent Christmas Day together

Faith... To my friends and Family home just to say I'm joyful

I've had a few moments of self doubt lately I suppose it's partly because cercumstance it's nice to know Not only do my parents, friends and family back home believe in me but the creator of the universe believes in me too. Need to pinch myself a second did I just say that. I suppose it's largely to do with the fact that because to many people in my life try to box me in and Suss me out when really unless you've known me for a long long time I don't think you really know what I'm capable of doing. Aka getting out here for one thing.. How often do we feel like being curled up into a big bubble that we can't let anyone really know who we are because if we do it's the end of life we know it. Enough of that ramble time to get down to what I really wanted to say.. 

I been pondering for a while what the heck am I doing here then the switch flipped actually considering how long I've been here and what challenges I had to face like I wanted to travel oz so why am I moaning so much about having to move again this time I'm excited I didn't really feel like coming to cairns in the first place where I really wanted to go since day one was Melbourne and now I am. But what clicked was actually I can do anything i don't need people to push me on anymore so many times in my life have I lived around a large amount of people telling me I can't, I will never amount to anything, etc.. But actually I can, a lot of jobs ask for a i can do.. Attitude well I've got that now... But can do comes through not my own strength but God so I feel that I'm traveling on my own because I need to keep this can do attitude so once told me I believe in you and so does Jesus well matter of a fact the idea that God believes me kicks but.. Even better that you lot at home believe in me... Okay I've been tired a lot lately and missing home but I love the idea that actually that in those times I've felt Gods love surrounding me. Truth is I'm fighting my battle with God and What comes to mind that maybe I'm forgetting to put on my armor and stop listening to lies and live in the truth I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength. I'm saying my prayers and I'm believe that whatever lies ahead it's for the good.. 





There's a song called I'm walking away from the troubles in my life I think possible Simon Webb from blue sung it I can't remember or maybe Craig David not a clue... But I'm living in the now and not looking a hindsight as my mum said to me the other day.. Hindsight is a wonderful thing. 

So here's me believing in God, myself and what truths there are and I'm traveling not on my own but in the foot steps of my God!!!! 

Miss you All... Love you All..

What am I living for...

EIt's been two and half months now since I've left England. I constantly wonder what if I wasn't here a lot at the moment. I suppose I'm not sure but I'm here so I'll just try to live in the moments of everyday. I've not had much chance to explore but I really need to save up and I hope I can very soon. First thing to do would have to be the Great Barrier Reef hands down. Maybe taking a leep of faith and bungee jumping. Time will tell... I'm looking forward to the adventures to come but for now I'm in Innisfail up north of Queensland near Carins all is good it's a quiet town not much to do I'm staying in a hostel with 14 people two girls and myself the rest are boys, There a great group pretty lively. Mostly since I've been here I've worked at a coffee shop in the town as well as cleaning the hostel. Though last week I worked sorting bananas on a farm which I really enjoyed however I'm not needed this week so I won't be working there. However they may decide they need me again, it does make saving up money difficult. I've had a chance to go to the local catholic church last weekend which was a experience itself I'm not sure I like a service following liturgy however I found the preach great talking about Kingdom principles. I had a lovely walk around the town a couple of weeks ago it was very stuffy and hot but it was nice to see some of the town. 

I download the new Soul Survivor album yesterday which Im really enjoying listening to it's got some fab songs with great lyrics that have really reminded me of where my strength needs to come from. Despite the battles I have with my mind at the moments some where in there I believe that things happen for a reason to change us and enhance our knowledge in knowing our strengths and weakness. I know that I can't rely on my own strength half the time. I feel that wherever I am I have something to hold onto the I'm trying not to have regrets and just leap as far as I can. 

I'm missing home so much at the moment but I think that's because it's getting so close to Christmas time that I feel far away from home and what's to come. 

Anyways that's all for now 

Ill blog soon... 

Love Rosie xx
