I can hardly believe the Sheffield trip has finally arrived! It has been a frantic few weeks for me and most other people, writing essays, doing exams, filling out forms, organising my family is ok when I am away. I have travelled a fair bit but I have never been away from my children for so long (it will be 3 weeks and 4 days). My youngest two are 5 and 7 and although they are used to me being away, they are both pretty upset this time, and so am I We leave today and to be honest I have not been excited at all until now. I am excited about going to Dubai and being hot after being so cold in Bendigo for so long. I am sick of this cold weather already and we are only a week into winter! I am sick of this cold weather already and we are only a week into winter!

 I am looking forward to getting to Sheffield Uni and meeting new people, adapting myself to the English culture and the cars driving on the wrong side of the road. I think that is my biggest fear, that I will forget and get run over!

Yesterday morning, Chris, Trevor and I were interviewed on ABC radio by Jonathon Riddnell.Jonathon was interested in our trip and asked later if we would keep in touch with them, pre-recording interviews for the ABC to air in the mornings. Other students might get a chance to be interviewed by him too?

My mother immigrated to Australia from Birmingham as a ten pound pom in the 60's. I went there when I was 7 but have never been back. So I am now ready to leave, to return to my ancestral beginnings and hopefully get a great understanding of her and where she came from, as well as gaining knowledge of a city that is clawing it's way back from a devastating past. On with the adventure.

  1. Thanks for sharing your experience with us. When the weather and the surrounding changes it always effects on the health of the person as he is not use to that climate change. It is a good way to learn https://bootcampmilitaryfitnessinstitute.com/2019/02/19/5-lessons-you-could-probably-learn-from-military-college-students/. Mothers are always cared about us, no matter how much we'll grow we'll still be the child for her.
