CHANGE my WAY & happy EASTER

It is official: I'll go to Cairns!!
I think that the city of Melbourne has gave me neither a taste of the real Australia and for this reason I'll take another direction.
I need to change my lifestyle, I'm sure that Australia is full of opportunities and I cannot stop myself here in the city! Melbourne is big and crazy and I like it, probably I'll come back.
Now I need something different, that's it.
From Melbourne I bring with me my faults, my silences, my tears, but also my joys, my laughs and the great time spent with great friends.

"Bye bye Melbourne, I'll come back later! "

So my next destination will be Cairns!! :DD I'm ready like the first time from Milan to Melbourne ahahah is a new restart in all the ways. Melbourne was my trial, Cairns will be my revenge!
New places, new friends, new jobs (pretty sure farms, never thought about it when I was in Italy).

For this trip I bought a big backpack like a real backpacker around the world ahahah and now I'm waiting for Thursday 5th April.

Yesterday was Easter and I spent it with friends. It was very strange because was the first time that I celebrated Easter not in family. Or better: not with my OWN family but with another kind of family:):)  A family made by emotional bond, not by blood. A temporary family because nothing is sure here and have fun in those moments is the better way to take care of your heart.

This is another kind of family :) :)

Marta e Barbara; Charles, Rocìo, Trini e Christian the crippled chilian guy, Nelson, Matias, the varesotti crew: Andrea, Giulia e Luigi; Nana from Japan, Marcello, Carmine ed Elena; Britta, Michael the chinese guy, Prateek, Aun; the Bari's guys: Francesco ed Enzo. Thanks to everyone who made my first Melbourne experience greatful and unforgettable.

Gosh, is only one month and half that I'm here, it seems passed so much time.
And I haven't seen anything yet!! xD xD

We lost a JOB in a hopeful place

Weekly post!
Bad news -.- I am fired from DOC pizza e mozzarella. I'm again without a job.
It's not a big deal, I think that everythings happen for a reason. In this period I felt vey very confused so this is like a sign. I've been here in Melbourne one month and half, but everything is like blocked.

When I was in Italy I didn't thought that everything in here should be ok, I was prepared to fall down, but also to restart from my ashes.
And maybe my next step will be not in Melbourne.
I think to move me away from the city (as I said two post ago), probably Queensland (cause autumn and winter are coming and the north is warmer than south), probably farms.
Who know? Maybe I'll come back in Melbourne in its summer and looking for internships or attend the motion graphics course by Jumbla Academy. I will never stop myself to say that everything change here. We must have flexibles minds and take the best from people we meet and spend time with.

I had my check out from the hostel on friday 23rd because the Grand Prix. I slept at friends house for 2 night and then I came back here (now I'm in the hostel). It was pretty strange left the hostel because in here I shared so much experience with other guys and backpackers, so I felt a little bit sad. Hostel's life could be funny, but when you see everyone leaving it, a lot of column around you fall down and you must restart again.

In all this chaos there was a joy: on friday evening I went to an argentinian party for a friend's birthday (Matias, 29years old). It was very funny, I love latin music and latin party ahahah

Please be patience with me, next week I'll try to be not so sad and not to repeat my feelings about bonds with other guys here ahahah

Stay tuned:):) this adventure is only at the beginning

We found a JOB in a hopeful place

HALO! :):)

What happened this week?

I was very very worried about job and how to find it, were three weeks that I’m looking around CBD and suburbs (Fitzroy, Carlton, South Melbourne, Brunswick and others) but no one answer.

I thought also to move me around (Geelong for example), but finally on Monday I received a call from DOC Pizza e Mozzarella, in Carlton. They asked me if I was available for a trial on Tuesday evening and obviously I said “YES, PLEASE GIVE ME A JOB!!”  xD

So I went to Carlton and I had my second trial after two weeks. It wasn’t so bad :)

They called me the day after and they gave me another chance on Thursday, Friday and Saturday at lunch.

I think I’m in the team because the manager sends me my work’s hours for this week.

I’m so proud of myself ahahah

On Friday I went to St Kilda beach as well. The sunset was very beautiful.

(I know that last week I already posted a sunset photo, but no one is the same as others, believe me)

I don’t know what will happen in next days, weeks or months, but when you see those colours nothing matters. Here doesn’t exist any plan, you just have to live day by day.

I’ve renew my accommodation in Greenhouse Backpackers, til 23rd Friday, meanwhile I’m looking for a share house or room for rent.

News next week!

This is AUSTRALIA

One more week is passed.
Lot of cahos and new things was happened:) First of all I knew a girl who's come from Gandino.. you know, Gandino!! There are twenty minutes by car between Albino (me) and Gandino (she), but we're never met in Italy ahahah
Also thankfully to this girl I started to talk more easily with other people.. I think I needed a mate to talk and have fun with, before open myself with whoever.

Unfortunatly no news about works or jobs here in Melbourne, but I know that all will be better.
I went to Brighton beach on saturday 3rd march with lot of other guys (italians, french, argentinian and from New Zeland too) to have fun, and I think I needed it. New people, new places, laughing and speaking english. And especially stop to being lonely!

Those meetings, those bonds, those new people who come in our life are the best news of the week. The best news and the worst at the same time because are people that maybe you'll not see even more. You have just the time to know their stories, drink a beer together and the next day they disappear from your life. Forever.
This is pretty sad, but this is also Australia I think.

Great beer, great mates, have fun!!

This is my weekly post.

GREAT expectations

Ok, I'm here in Melbourne from 2 weeks and I neither have found a job. It's not a big deal, I keep think positive!
The title "great expectations" doesn't mean that I was hopeful and all my dreams break down. Talking with a chinese guy, he told me "You are italian!! You should know how to make an AMAZING coffee or a very COOL pizza or whatever"
WTF?? Hey man, I'm not superman.

Those are great expectations I mean -.-

It should makes me happy (obviously I'm proud to be italian), but it set me in a very strange position in which I must can do everything.

Honestly I spent the last two days as tourist ahahahahah visit Melbourne and its hide corner, also some church and have good time walking on riverside.

I'm thinking to change my way, orienting myself in another direction and move me away from the city. Looking for hitch hiking or car sharing and discover the truth Australia:):)

We'll see:):)

As soon as possible I start to post short videos with my own animations, stay tuned!

the AUSTRALIAN SUN doesn't FORGIVE

Hey,
this first week is passed like a breath!! I've done the RSA course (4 hours where a pretty strange girl explain us how to serve alcohol and how to denied at who is drunk); after those 4 hours we should make an exam, but everything goes right so... Hey!! Now I can serve alcohol to everyones here in Victoria!! Come on guys and have FUN!! Ahahahahah

"Pussy is the name of the drink, trust me!!"

On thursday I start to leave around my resume (in restaurants and cafè) and one italian restaurant made me do a trial next day (friday).
I wasn't sure about it because the italian manager didn't made me feel relaxed. In fact next night I get out two hours later (5:30pm - 7:30pm) ahahahahah "Maybe we call you back".

After this trial I knew that 400GRADI restaurant is one of the most busy in Melbourne's CBD  xD xD  but to break ice it's ok :):)
Who care? I'm in Melbourne and this is ok ahahah

On saturady I went to the beach (because after this short experience I need relax and sun) but I didn't care about the strong burning australian sun!!  D:
I stayed lying down from 1:30pm to 3:30pm !! D:
I covered myself with sunscreen, believe me, but it wasn't enough...

Now I am at the hostel, afraid from the sunrays and looking on google maps which suburbs I could leave my resume (maybe Fitzory and Carlton).

I think also to looking for farms or wwofing works, but I let you know ;);)
bye bye!

HERE I AM !!

Ok, here I am :):)
I'm arrived on sunday evening in Melbourne Tullamarine's airport (after 20 hours of flying!! D: ).
I took the skybus that brought me to Southern cross station and now I'm at the hostel. Yeah!!

In these first three days I opened a bank account, made the australian phone number, TFN request (to legally work in Australia) and I booked the RSA course (which allows to serve alcohol).

I have some problem with the jetlag, so I wake up at 4am (in Italy are 6pm of the day before, WTF?? ). Do we have dark circles? ahahah

But I am positive and everything goes as it should.

I am in Melbourne right now, and this is enough to make everyhing alright:):)

My next step will be looking for a job as waiter... Don't stop to follow me through my trip! 

From Melbourne with love,

Nick:)
