bell123321 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Fingers crossed about the working for accommodation at the hostel as that will be of a great help. Can you sign up to any temping agencies and maybe work for one of the weeks your in Perth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quokka2005 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 I checked pinnacle people website and they didn't have anything on website but I've found a bar agency that I'm going to try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzukiscottie Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 My middle daughter has just returned home after travelling round Europe and the U.K. In November and December. With her backpack. 2 of them. Big one on the back; wee one on the front. She loves them! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quokka2005 Posted January 7, 2016 Author Share Posted January 7, 2016 Let's not get into this before we potentially set someone off again lol :laugh: I like my suitcase when it's actually packed but my rooms just been a bit of a mess. I'll have it packed up tomorrow morning. Leaving for Perth tomorrow now instead. Was going to go to Albany but people have said there's probably not much point without a car to get around. Plus I can't afford to waste the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Eurgh. I still haven't finished yet Did you unpack it all? I'd just take out the basics and leave the rest in there if you can. And try to just wash and wear a couple of outfits tops/bottoms and save breaking into the other stuff unless you really have to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quokka2005 Posted January 7, 2016 Author Share Posted January 7, 2016 Tbh I did leave quite a bit still in there, like some of the stuff I shouldn't have brought at all. It was just everyday stuff like jeans and that but I still feel like I've got loads to pack. Definitely not unpacking in the van. I'll probably end up just wearing the same couple of things. Definitely won't need jeans!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quokka2005 Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 That's me booked my bus back to Perth for tomorrow. I tried to do it online and it wasn't coming up with a journey so I started panicking. Turns out I'd clicked Perth city instead of Perth East haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quokka2005 Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 Always straight to the questions.. Haha no! It was a 6 week contract. I already said that, I just hoped that I could extend by another week but she had another girl coming that she knows through a friend. I think she's actually came over from Melbourne and is a English backpacker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parley Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I thought you wanted to au pair work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quokka2005 Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 What's that got to do with my current job? I did consider it but it's not very well paid, I wouldn't have saved up for the east coast for it but I might do it later in the year if there's a area I want to stick around in for a few months. I'm thinking of maybe doing some babysitting in Perth if I can't find some casual agency shifts in a bar or restaurant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quokka2005 Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 Bus is booked. Booked the hostel for 3 days to see what I'm doing. Sorted! Be interesting to see if I like Perth as much as the first time but i don't see why not! It'll feel really busy though after being here, it'll be like Sydney again lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JockinTas Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 One of my cousins has a daughter who is arriving in Sydney next week on a WHV. She's hoping to do admin work for a couple of months after having a bit of a holiday. She will be staying with one of my friends for a few days. The last time I saw her she was a newborn baby :smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyHeart Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Yep a police check and a WCC both quick and easy to obtain but $$ about $75 WCC and can't remember police check but might be $50, good idea to get one actually I would think?
