Peter’s off to Australia!

My cousin Peter left for Aus­tralia yes­ter­day, and he just landed there today. He was inspired by my trip to Europe (search my blog for posts about it!), and he decided to go off on his own adven­ture. I’m really excited for him and I’d love to be able to do what he’s doing right now! Although he won’t be going for school, he is going to work in Aus­tralia via the SWAP pro­gram (swap.ca). They get you setup with a visa, a place to stay for two weeks, some peo­ple to meet up with, and a few other things to get you on the right foot. He also went with another friend of mine, Safari, they should have a great time. I’m really excited for him, and I can not wait to hear all of his ridicu­lous stories!

Say­ing our good­byes to Peter and Safari at the airport

Incase you’re inter­ested, here is the first post of his new travel blog:

26 blog posts in 13 weeks

So, I for­got to men­tion before — I will be blog­ging for my CMPT 376 class, two blogs a week is the require­ment. You might have noticed already, what with my blog posts increas­ing dra­mat­i­cally! Some stu­dents cre­ated a seper­ate blog just for this class. But I fig­ure if I do it on my own blog, it will get me into the swing of things and encour­age me to post more often!
