We met with Sami yesterday (pics are to come) and on the way back I saw those mates on Transperth.
Whilst most were glued to either their cell or the rare paper-book these two chatted along, like... in real life!
The moment the first went off, though... cell was out, guy glued to it.
Other...
I still have not payed the cabin.
No one asked me to, just like last time.
We did not pay for the keys, and yes, we have two, not one.
The manager said, "I know you bring them back." He took the job over 7 weeks ago, we must have a "file".
Ingo does all the repairs, we keep the place clean.
Because... we want to enjoy, right?
And I bet you all would do the same and not think about it, either.
It's what we do, right?
We won't run off and we will pay.
There is no further deposit because they told us they know we won't leave a mess.
"The good German" after all?
No.
But... all we are allowed to is visits.
Ingo is too old. Australia wants young, healthy, people. Oh, skilled ones, too.
You're not used to especially the latter being German (insert irony here). Germany welcomes anybody.
Let's see what or if we can do anything about it with me not having hit the 50 yet (but then ... what have I to offer, job-wise....).
Are you happy with where you live and if so, why?

Generally I'm happy with where I live.
Just not when I get splashed by a driver going through a lot of cold water on the roadside. That's when I use some choice bad words.
Sorry, but you made me laugh with this (sadly I know what you mean, though).
I love where I live and while I have enjoyed travelling to other parts of the world I can't imagine emigrating to another country unless something really terrible happened (like happens for refugees). I did live in Papua New Guinea for a while but I always knew it was temporary.
It is good that Ingo is so practical. Even if things needed fixing in a cabin we stayed in we would not be able to fix - we have to pay people to do all of our repairs.
Papua New Guinea sounds very interesting, did you blog about it?
Yes, with my two left hands (German saying?) I am glad to have Ingo!
I would like to emigrate to Canada these days. I used to be very happy here and I suppose considering many places in the world the US is still a good place to be. But our government is so messed up. Our president is such a fool and I think a dangerous one. Not to mention being a clueless idiot. He has taken us down a very deep rabbit hole where the US is no longer respected as an ally and friend. It makes me very sad indeed.
I travel quite a bit, but I love where I live (well except for our current president, but thank goodness for term limits).
As you know I'm very happy where I am now, even though I loved Portugal, but here I have more space and when we came it was to give the children a better future :)
PNG was many years ago, before internet and almost before personal computers though I did have a very early model. So obviously no blogging and I didn't take up photography until digital cameras.
Hmmmm let me see, do I love where I live 😉 you are lucky to be married to a handyman Iris.. P is handy with some things, not so much with others 😀
