Leaving for Tumbarumba

Im leaving for Tumbarumba, New South Wales tomorrow because I’m starting my tree planting job on Monday. I was supposed to go with a friend of mine from Redcliffe, but he decided today that we wasn’t coming anymore. However, Brent is running out of work as a carpenter and a backpacker I met in Cairns is looking for work so I’ll see if I can maybe get them jobs tree planting with me. маленький член фото порнуха фотки

Apparently Tumbarumba is pretty hard to get too… from anywhere. The little town of Tumbarumba is located near a national park a couple of hours away from two other little towns (Albury and Wagga Wagga) and a little further from Canberra. I was on the phone for a while today calling the visitor information centers in Tumbarumba, Albury and Wagga Wagga trying to figure out how to get there. The one guy in Wagga Wagga didn’t even know where Tumbarumba was and it’s only an hour away and the one lady from Albury didn’t have a clue how to get there without a car when it’s only an hour and a half away. And to top it all off, the guy from the Tumbarumba visitor information center didn’t even know where the bus station was in his own town of 1500 popultaion.

I finally contacted some half competent people from the train station in Wagga Wagga and figured everything out. I’m going to fly with Qantas tomorrow morning from Brisbane to Sydney then Sydney to Wagga Wagga. I’m going to have to find somewhere to sleep in Wagga Wagga for the night then catch a bus (which I’m not even sure exists) to Tumbaumba Friday afternoon.

In Tumbarumba, all the tree planters stay in cabins in a caravan park. The cabins have three bunk beds each and there is a common kitchen as well as common bathrooms. The cost is something like $15/night. I’m actually pretty excited to start work (ask me on Tuesday and I’ll probably be over it). I haven’t worked since January and haven’t tree planted since the summer of 2007. I’m pretty sure the land here will be a little better than in Timmins, where I used to plant, but it’s most likely going to be colder and they are definitely going to be longer weeks as we plant 12 days in a row instead of only five.

This contract in Tumbarumba is only for a month, but I’m hoping to be able to plant for other contracts afterwards. It would be ideal for me to plant for 3-5 months. This way I could make enough money to travel for another six months or so plus be able to qualify for a second working holiday visa.

We were checking our resting heart rate in the living room for fun tonight and apparently I’m super unfit. So I’m a little scared to see how I cope (physically and mentally) working 12 days in a row since I’ve been sleeping in for the last five months.
