About Me

I'm 26 years old and living in Edinburgh for the last 10 months. Working in Livingston as a social worker (For anyone who knows Scotland, theyre all cringing just now!)You'd know this because I am now so white you can practically see through my skin!I went to the park with my pals on Sunday because it was 10 degrees and not raining... And I actually thought "god isn't this bliss!!")I miss the sun.I use silly phrases like "just now", "Nae Bother pal" "that's me done." and ask questions like "are you busy the now?" and respond to such questions with silly words like "Aye" However, this does afford me grand adventures like- In the last 10 months I have been to England, Scotland (including wee trips to Glasgow, Lochness, Isle of Skye, Aberdeen, Shetland Islands, St. Andrews, The Isle of Mull), Ireland, France, Italy, Belgium, Prague and Switzerland. Next week I'm going away for the weekend to the beautiul island of Skye and in 17 days time Im going to Turkey for two weeks, then in July I'll be in Greece, and Spain in September.... So I think the cold is worth it, right??? Plus I'll be home to Sydney for a wee visit in October to soak up some more sun anyway...
