A day in Alice Springs




Alice Springs is an amazing place. We didn't always think that, at first we wanted to leave right away ... and then we switched hostels. Staying at Annie's Place changed our opinion of the place completely. We decided to stay there because we were working there, and working the night shift, it is much safer to go to your dorm rather than to walk 10 minutes down the road to another hostel. The first lads we meet are Brian and Connor. As you can imagine, living in the desert where it is 40 degrees everyday, you end up spending a lot of time drinking ... and swimming in the pool.

Moving into Annie's Place

 We arrive in Alice Springs with no agenda other than to find a little bit of work to keep us on the road. I heard a rumour that Annies was hiring, so I walked on in there and asked for a job. No more stress, I start in two days. Working all over the hostel, being an Annies bitch. : )

In the meantime we chill out, enjoying our last few days with Nico and Clement. We decide to spend some time at the reptile centre. Very cool.

After the boys leave, we decide to live at Annie's Place, the walk back and forth is too much at night, a little too dangerous. So we work, live and play at Annie's now, the people are amazing and have taken us in. I love my Annie's family. The first couple of nights was trouble, but after a couple of warnings we decided to tone it down a little... but not much. : )



Getting to know our new roomies.

It's a very nice place to live, we can't wait to get to know this place and the people.
