I've been pushing myself into the Australia experience, finding jobs, trying to get on with people etc. Every time I think of Taiwan though, I think with longing, thinking only how much better stuff was there. Food is cheaper and tastier, there's more to do, I could practice chinese, explore, and I had a few good friends.
As I've stayed in Australia, this feeling has only grown. Just now, I thought of just going back to Taiwan and had a terrible urge to just go back. I've thought about this before, and I just said I'll head over east, see how things go there, and if I still don't like it I can still go back to Taiwan. It's not like it's going to disappear, I can always go back there (unless war breaks out or something). However, I also think if I'm longing to go back this much I should just go.
I've applied to a few jobs and WWOOFing places in Melbourne, and I still need to visit my friend Jack in Tasmania though. I think I'm going to keep going, do some fun stuff now I've got a decent pot of savings. That'll be better - I haven't done much holidaying or touring in Australia yet, and I might find that more fun than trying to deal with the working culture here. I certainly don't regret everything I've done in Aus so far though.
