Day 1: Saturday 24 March (7am, Sydney)
Have been unable to control my excitement for the past two weeks, but today is the day the adventure begins! Five weeks in Ayr in far north Queensland and I’m a little nervous - probably just enough that you might call it ‘healthy nervousness’ – probably ...
Four weeks ago I submitted an application (horribly awkward listing strengths and achievements - definitely not my strong point!) and, well, something must have appealed to the ABV people as they interviewed me a week later, laughed at my interview style, gave me the job and two weeks later, I’m about to jump on a plane!
I’ve got all sorts of ideas floating through my head, about what Townsville airport is going to look like, how friendly Eddie and John will be in person, how different the cultures of the people I’ll be meeting might be, just what the humidity is going to do to my hair – it’s chaos in my head, but fuelled by the promise of adventure as I leave behind the comforts and routines of home! Time to go see what it’s really like!
