Settling in

We are doing pretty good in the just two weeks we've been here. We have found a nice place to live, a stone cottage in Woolloomooloo with 2 bedrooms, a really nice kitchen and a sunny patio.
It's good to have two bedrooms so friends can stay with us when they come and visit. A surprising number of visitors has already announced their imminent arrival and we are looking forward to having you here and sharing the good life in Syndey with you for a bit!

Meanwhile we've sent out our resumes to various places and gotten some good responses on them. Lena has done a try-out at an Italian restaurant and I've done a job interview that looks promising so might be starting work here as soon as next week.
Our location in the city is nice and central, almost everything is in walking distance. Good since cycling is more of an adventure here than in Amsterdam, though they are busy creating cycle paths; there is a big movement in Australia to become greener and more sustainable, lots of good initiatives.
Today we'll be off to the farmers market to get some great fresh produce. Food is a very important part of aussie life and we're happily joining the locals!
