Day 3 in Sydney, Australia


Today is the trip of  Sydney Opera House. I totally walk from King Cross Station to Town Hall Station and finally arrived Circular Station near by the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge. Totally 10 km. There are many historical modern buildings and parks. Let's see:





























I'm too late to pick photos or process, forgive me.

Today's point:
1.Rock buildings, skyscrapers and historical strucures are contained Sydney.
2.One popsicle cost 120 NTDs.
3.Many people enjoy sports especially jogging. That's why there are many sunshine dudes and slim beauties in Sydney.
4.Freebus(555) service is end on 15:30.
5.The First Blood is a Tattoos shop.
6.King St. is the street which many movie scenes used.

Day2 in Sydney, Australia


Two of my Roommates will leave today(left side). The girl is from Estonia and the tall boy with glasses is major in music. We just shot with strange degree and faces. They are very kind for me, a new comer from Taiwan. Thanks for your kind and I'll miss you guys!! keep in touch.

I just take a walk around my hostel. It's fucking convenient!!!!! Let's see:


Fashion library!

Cheap super market! There are two super markets in Australia. Another one is WoolWorths. I think part of things in Coles are cheap. They both use a cool machine for check out: auto-paid machine! I didn't see it before and my checking can be finished in 5 minutes. Guys, how easy with it!!!


King Cross Train Station


Functions are more similar to the print shop. But there are more web based and automatic.

Drug store. Medicine is very full range and  cheap. So don't take too much to Australia city again!! Luckily, I didn't be asked too much in when passing custom.

British shop. I just talk a little(ok..more) with the shop assistant. She also takes a working holiday visa and is a good talker.


There are three biggest banks in OZ(Australia): ANZ, NAB and commonwealth bank. Choose one of three can promise you cannot find the service point or ATM. ANZ is the biggest one and cooperate with Mega bank in Taiwan. NAB doesn't charge you with account keeping fee. Commonwealth bank can create a retirement account when you open a salary account.


There is Vincent College in the corner of the city.



Outlet is in the opposite. It's really cheap!!!


 There are a lot of India attendant here.


I want to apply for the Woolworths Prepaid Cap. It's cooperate with Optus company. You can have 5GBs limited network flow in 45 days and 300 AUD for talk. It's an amazing option for backpackers. But you cannot share the iPhone personal hotspot with your notebook. You can only get the sim card in the woolworths market. When I ask for it, the King Cross Woolworths' told me just go to mobile phone shop and buy it. But it's sold in Woolworths market only!!!!! I just went back and forth three times this afternoon! At last the staff finally told me "They are just sold out and not inventories." Can you tell me the biggest point earlier? lady!!


The first meal cooked myself. someone said "It's seems so-so. We need to pass some Taiwan delicious food pictures to you." Well Just do it!!! Who afraid who!?!?

A new map( important tool) get from hostel. I will go visit Sydney Opera House. Don't miss the "Stephen's live blogging" tomorrow. :D

Day 1 in Sydney, Australia.


There are some free bread and cola when I wake in the flight. That's a gift from an strange aunt who is sitting next to me. We don't know each other before but just share her source with me and say bye-bye when we leave the flight. That's a packer's standard drama everyday. Hello and have a nice day. That's a good start.

When I was leaving the flight, the broadcast sounded: "Is any customer lost his dentures? Please contact with flight attendants." Then I retrieve my tooth maintainer. anyway, that's a good start.


When I leave the Sydney airport, I meet Jude in the shuttle bus. who is an passenger from England. I know her name which is same with one of my friend in Taiwan. we talk a little and I invite her to be the first signer on the trip book which is given from Patricia.


Now I am stay in Dury House hostel which is near by "Sydney Opera" but only cost for AUD $135 pear week!! The good and bad news are there are red light area everywhere. 


I just walk around and talk with a convenient shop clerk in the afternoon. the food is very expensive. A bugger cost $5 AUD, a lemon tea and 2 chocolates cost 8.5 AUD. I need to find the super market and ready some kitchenware for my stomach.


There are handsome boys and beauty girls everywhere. I think girl is more. Hollywood should find stars of the future here!


The first image of Sydney is clean street and Relaxed atmosphere. You cannot believe both Sydney and Taipei are the major city of a country. Many young people are holding drink party or dressing for carnival. The sun is still shining with the moon at 6:00 p.m.


When I'm on the way to the hostel, there is a stranger seems to attack me throwing the bottle. I turn around and gazing him, then he run away across the street and say "fuxx" to me through his figure.  I think is just a monkey business but I still told my roommate. We need to be careful. anyway, this is an good ending.



About my roommates  there are 1 couple from Romania and 1 couple from Korea. 1 girl called Dania and the other gold hair boy. we have no longer time for chat. now I am in the social hall. White people like to watch football games on TV and also fuxx off around here. haha. others prepare there dinner in the kitchen. The Aroma of the toast is compelling. Meal time is a good time for watching TV and making different friends.


I hope I can keep blogging in English day by day. It's not only shared my trip but improve my English ability. I need to increase two of my abilities: one is memory about different world names, the other is reduce the labyrinthine Views.

Tomorrow will be a busy day. I hope I can finish my TFN, mobile and bank account apply. Also walk around the Sydney Opera and finish my resume for job apply.
