Back in Sydney

We came back from Surf Camp yesterday.  It was a very nice and funny experience, but after 5 days intensive surfing you’re quite exhausted. To learn how to surf was one of the things I had on my to-do-list when I went to Australia. Now that mission is complete.

On our last lesson we had a competition, we were in teams where everyone came from the same country. Everyone in the team had to paddle out into the water and manage to stand up on a wave. The team that finished first won. And guess who the winners were? Team Sweden of course!

I went out yesterday night with some girls I met at Surf Camp. We went to Scubar. The nightlife in Sydney is different from the nightlife in Sweden, it’s so much more people and noise everywhere. I like it. Australian beer is pretty good too.

Today I haven’t done much actually. I felt like I needed a rest. I’ve been walking around in the city, looking in shops and sitting at an internet café. It’s raining, so you don’t feel like going to the beach or something. I’ve gotten new roommates again, this time from Germany and Belgium. You meet lots of people all the time when you’re a backpacker.

I’ve just cooked food all by myself! Usually I never cook anything and if I do I cook noodles. I cooked Spaghetti Bolognese, it tasted good, but you should have seen me in the kitchen. When I should open the pasta package I used too much power, so the pasta ended up all over the kitchen. Am I too strong or just clumsy? You decide.

My plan right now is to stay in Sydney for a few more days. I’ve got a few things I want to do before I leave this city. Then we’ll see where I end up, I’ve not decided that yet.
