Hello. I’m Phoebe, I live in Boston, Massachusetts in the USA and will be traveling to Melbourne, Australia in late August 2010. This blog will (hopefully) be an easy way for me to chronicle my journey, to keep my family and friends in the U.S. updated, and to meet some new friends out there in cyberspace!

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

Hey Phoebe. I’m also highly considering moving to Australia for a lot of reasons. Well I really don’t want to rant a lot about myself but would like to touch base to see what you’ve found out and what your plans are even though I plan on moving there before your arrival. I’m from Texas, although I’m a hugh redsox fan (prob bc we suck and i hate the yankees) and also bc one of my best friends plays in the bosox minor leagues. Give me a shout by email and we can exchange ideas.

I blogged every day I was away on holidays in Oregon in July last year and it was a great discipline to help me think about what I’d been doing, as well as a rod to my back to help actually get out and do stuff. I hope you have a great time while you’re here in Melbourne and I look forward to reading your blog as well!
Did you notice I didn’t say “G’day” once that whole… oh crap.

I’m so very excited for you!…I’ve also moving to Australia next February for Teacher’s College and am considering settling in Melbourne following school. Wow, it’ll be crazy fun seeing you go through the motions.
Best of luck and enjoy!…
