Gladstone, Wooop!

So, we have had quite a productive week! And a quite surprising one towards the end I must say....
For a while there I thought we´d have to spend the upcoming three months on a small farm in-the-middle-of-nowhere (but very beautiful) milking cows everyday. And now we´ve just landed in Gladstone, a small industrial City up along the east coast, near the Tropical Capricorn, to settle down and live here the next couple of months!
.
Quite sick of just everything on wednesday (hardly any farm jobs to apply for, hardy no answers nor emails, and Tilly started to panic - "we never gonna find a job, EVER!" graceful and so very patient as she are) we decided to travel 3 hours, south west of Brisbane to visit a farm who could provide us with work and also eliglibe work to apply for our secondyear visa. Done, drove south thursday spent a free night along the road and got to Maroon Valley and said hello to about 150 milk cows friday morning. To be honest, would glady hade done the job itself, kinda lika cows. Now it just so happened another offer turned up from clear blur sky. Henrik googled some pump companies and sent off a few words to them during last week. One off them phoned friday morning, three calls later, yesterday night Henrik was offerd a job for six months earning shitloads/hour in the little town of Gladstone. So here we are!
Thing is, this is what we´ve been talking bout al along. To find a little city and settle down, easy living and diving during weekends. If we are even more lucky H´s new company or the work Tilly hopes to find gives us sponsorship for the next few years downunder. If not, we have been living the drem on the eastcoast for half a year.
Drove all the way up from Brisbane, started 7am this morning, and now have two days to explore this little city we gonna call a home before H start his job on tuseday. Exciting times!
