Our job search is still on. Nothing has really come up yet.
I have to say it is not easy to find a job if you are:
A)
On a working holiday visa (can only work up to
six month for each company)
B)
Non-Australian national
I have applied for so many positions that thought were easy
enough to be at least considered for but the response is always the same – we
found a candidate with a more suitable profile..... meaning the candidate is a
resident and not a “tourist”??
Anyway, I am not bothered by those kinds of selections for
now. Hopefully something will come along one day. In the meantime we took a
short trip to Williamstown and another trip to Mt Dandenong to enjoy distant
views of Melbourne.
Williamstown is a small South-Western part of Melbourne that
has its own little coastline with a sandy beach. The day was grey but quite
warm and no wind as opposed to Dublin when it is pretty much impossible to go
to the beach on a normal day! I would say if the day was sunny the views of
Melbourne CBD would have been much more enjoyable.
Mt Dandenong is the highest hill in close to the city. It
rises 633 meters above sea level. The road to the mountain was beautiful as we
passed through the National Park’s twisted roads. I felt as if we were suddenly
in a jungle. Unfortunately, we did not spot any wildlife.
We went for a short walk in the mountain to enjoy some more
of the views of the city. The day again was pretty grey and visibility was not
great. Either way, it was a nice walk in the nature.
The weather around here seems to be getting cooler. It is
now in the range of 20s. Forecast shows a couple of days with 26-28 degrees
but that probably won’t last long.
