Last day in Australia

Posted by Ali Sanaei under Australia, Friends, Personal

Today is my last day in Melbourne, Australia. I am in Swinburne uni library right now studying Marketing Planning which I have its exam in three hours. The exam will finish at 4pm and I will rush straight to the airport to fly to Tehran at 7pm. I’m going to be in Tehran for a week and then will go back to London.

While living here, ten months, I got the chance to visit Sydney few times, Perth, Tasmania (Hobart, Bruny Island, Port Arthur, Norfilk, etc), Geelong and Great Ocean Road. I also wanted to go to Queensland and see the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park as it has apparently the largest and best coral reef in the world, but didn’t.

One of the aspects of the image I had before coming to Australia was that I’m going to see kangaroos, wombats, koalas and other local animals in the city roads and every where, which was wrong. If you want to see those animals and you live in Melboure, Sydney, etc, you have to go to the zoo! But when we went to Tasmania few weeks ago, I finally touched the image I had of here over there. Really great nature and outlooks, lots of wild animals in the cities’ surounding roads, beautiful sheeps, kangs, wombats and all I thought of here. I actually ran over a Kangaroo myself while driving in Hobart one night! If someone comes to Australia and doesn’t go to Tassie, they effectively haven’t seen Australia!

Lots of good things happend here for me; baby, new friends and colleagues, different experiences, good job, lots of fun, extremely busy life, etc and etc. I’m taking back mostly good memories of Australia and am hoping to visit her again some time in the near future.
