Last two weeks in Australia were great and on the other side quite sad. Just after finishing working at Reactive I went for a trip to the red center. It was just amazing place that you would hardly see somewhere else on the planet.
Alice Springs was really tiny town with lot of Aboriginals. I found out that taking photos of the Australian origins is not good idea and I wouldn·t recommend it to anyone.
The climate is really cruel; humidity is around 10%. We spend the first three days cruising near to the Ayers Rock and Alice Springs. Claiming the rock was really hard and I nearly couldn·t make it. The tour was really good organized and I couldn·t complain except the early mornings.
The second part of the trip was driving all the way to Darwin passing some amazing places such as natural thermal pools. I met couple of new friends among the girly German backpackers. The weather was slowly changing every day. When we came to Darwin the humidity was 90% and we were swatting like kangaroos.
This trip was really cool, but probably "once in the life time".
Leaving Australia feels really sad because I got couple of good friends over here. When I will get bored of Europe I will come back and maybe finally teach me to surf.
