For a little under a week I have been in Brisbane, I am trying to figure out where exactly I stand on the place. It is the first place I have been to that doesn’t have a beach…which caught me a bit off guard…probably could have done a bit more research. However they do have a man made lagoon… not really the same feel but a good substitute.
On a whole there isn’t a huge amount to do here, most things close at six and unless you are going drinking or fine dining it seems like the city comes to a bit of a halt. On the other hand the people here are the friendliest I have met so far. I have had a bunch of people ask me if I need to be shown around the city, they are really interested in why you are here, and just appear to want to randomly chat with anyone. The nightlife seems to have a good vibe as well.
I had a really great birthday that involved a piece of gluten free cake from the girls and then a bunch of us went out for the evening. It was probably my first time really drinking since I have been here. It was such a fun night, Kirstie and Andrew that I met in surf camp came out, Maria who I met in Sydney, Emma and Joe who I met in Byron Bay, Dean who I know through Maria, and some random guy my hostel that had no idea what he was getting himself into. It was really great to have a group of people come out after only being here for two weeks.
