About amyruth85:

I'm 22 years old and about to set off on an adventure of a lifetime. I'm leaving my job as a PR Officer in Maidstone, England to travel the world for 8 months. I'll be visiting South America - Brazil, Peru, Bolivia and Chile, New Zealand, Australia and Thailand. I've never done anything like this before and I'm so excited about all the places I'm going to see and all the people I'm going to meet!

Hobbies:

I've recently got into Yoga and hope to carry this on when I travel. I love spending time with friends and catching up over lunch or a drink in the pub. I enjoy music and reading - and soon travelling!

Favourite places:

I've not travelled much but I love London and Paris - I get a real buzz when I'm there. Cornwall is great - we used to go there on family holidays when I was younger. I've also had some great times in Greece with friends.

Going out with a bang!

Posted by amyruth85 | 4th January 2009

Damo, Angie and I met up with the boys again in Newcastle - about 2 hours North of Sydney. We went for a nice meal to celebrate Christmas and our reunion, though struggled to find much else to do as everything closes on a Sunday.

However no time to mope around - next (and final) stop Sydney!!! Lee, Alan, Phil and I had booked ourselves into a 4 star hotel for a few nights in the suburb of Paramatta, and planned to get the train in for New Year. I didn't expect we would see the harbour until then - but to my surprise and delight our Greyhound bus actually crossed the Harbour Bridge on our way into the city! I'll never forget my first glimpse of the Opera House and the beautiful harbour - it was a glorious sunny day too - just perfect! They say the first sighting gives you tingles - and it's true! In my case the second and third time does too...
