Sorry for the long break from posting and honestly I have no excuse so let's not talk about it ok? Ok moving on.
One of the interesting things about working FIFO is how my coworkers live all over the country. And remember that Australia is the same size as the lower 48. A fair number live in Perth like me, but I know people who live in Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, Orange, and Newcastle. Hell we even have a guy who lives in the UK or at least goes back there all the time or something. It is just a bit weird to work closely with someone and then realize that when they are off they are several thousand miles and two timezones away. It would be like people from LA, NYC, Atalnta, Miami, and Dallas all going to work together in the middle of Montana.
And to my car focused readers fear not I will take pics of the beast this week and get that up. Man I love that thing.
The experiences of a recent Virginia Tech grad living in Australia. Mostly a way to keep in touch with friends and family in the states. Oh and post pictures of kangaroos too.

I live here all of the time 50% of the time
So i apologise for the formatting. This is posted from my phone. But anyway the picture in this post is my room on site. There is a mini fridge and small TV at the end of the bed you can't see, and my locker is also out of frame but is identical to the one you can see. It is maybe 5'x10' with an attached bathroom that is slightly smaller then that. It is tiny and about a 1k walk from the center of camp, but for 50% of the year it's home.
