Default Im here! on the gold coast!

Just a quick hello. landed yesterday at 6.30 am. did heaps of things, staying with my friends, got phone etc.

Wireless is almost non existent here, for a computer freak like me its driving me nuts! so had to go to my ex-university and borrow my friends password!

started looking for jobs in tourism management, seems to be a lot out there, but need to network a fair bit!

OZ is still OZ, nothing much has changed, just more high rises- im enjoying wearing a skirt!

was hard to leave family behind, but have to continue with the decision i made a few months ago. now is the time to go forward and not wonder if i have made the right choice, too much emotions involved here!

will meet the expats on Sat nite here on the Gold Coast!

Is there no wireless? Do they use the vodafone 3G cards for mobile connection at least?
