The Obligatory Perth Stint

Several months months since my last post and it's been an interesting journey. I wrapped up the season in Jindabyne early to head home.

Being back in Perth is a wierd experience. Living in Fremantle makes things a little different and the vast majority of people are have moved on to some extent. Wives, children, fiances, demanding jobs and a variety of other responsibilites mean than only a handful of my friends are available to catch up. Possibly for the best: reasons not to drink so much are welcome. All in all it was a very healthy experience with a good diet, plenty of time in the gym and a fair bit of constructive behavior.

I got myself a nice new skateboard (after my mother inadvertantly gave one of my second cousins my old deck) and put a bit of effort into getting some skills with mixed results and a couple of nice little falls. I might try to stick to snowboarding but I will be getting on the skateboard again in the future.

After a little bit of apprehension about getting work in Sweden the news finally came in that I am going back. Very excited. Flights are all booked and I start work in the second week of December.
