Australia so far

My first two days in Australia have been excellent. My apartment is small but very comfortable and quaint. I have one room mate so far, her name is Trina and she is from Denmark. I have been hanging out with her mostly and she has been helping me out showing me where everything is. The school is a very short walking distance from my apartment. The grocery store is a good 20 minute walk away, however they have people that will take you there for free. I have not been to the beach yet but plan to very soon. I went to the liquor store yesterday to buy some beer, and I asked a local which one was the best. He pointed one out that was expensive, but he was right its was bloody damn good. So far I am just hanging out trying to meet people, because I don't have anything to do till Monday. Cheers!
