Oooowl (I use that to say hello !)
I packed my first crate 2 monts ago
And there we are today with what seems to be a very under control moving.
That's not the case.
I don't know if it's the thirties crisis but the year 2017 has been particularly painful for me.
It was not so easy to figure out, especially around the end but it was because I had already taken the decision to change everything in 2018 !
Indeed, I took some quiet radical decisions
Which I probably will not regret but that are not necessary easy to take.
First big decision, I cut my hair.
And second big decision, I left Brussels and my appartment because third big decision
I have moved
to Australia !
Yeah I know, it's not very obvious like that.
Omg ! An Australian Fridge !
Look ! An Australian door !
An Australian magnet
The place seems quiet but walls are as thin as paper.
Therefore I'll find another place to tell you more about my big changes in 2018.
In the next sequence, filmed 3 weeks later during 20 minutes, the microphone was not properly plugged. I let you see and hear how bad the sound was but I shot the whole sequence again 3 or 4 weeks later.
We totally agree that the sound was completely awful !
Before to go I was wondering what was the exact difference between living abroad and travelling for a long time.
How long should one stays at the same place to get the right to say « I'm living here » (without talking about administrative points).
Well my cutie patooties, I think that I found a part of the answer (that's pretty obvious actually) :
The most important aspects when one travels are the discovery and the scenery. People are travelling to live a kind of break away from their daily lives.
Some explore a lot and some other let the epicurean monster who's living inside them take the control for a couple of weeks.
And more besides grant themselves (omg this sentence)
And more besides grant themselves…
And more besides grant themselves the luxury to do absolutely nothing.
When you live abroad, your priorities are else.
It's not about live something different and then go back home anymore.
It's about bringing out everything to make your new place feel like home.
And it's that, precisely, that prevented me to put new videos online these last weeks..
These 7 or 8 last weeks…. Sorry.
She abandoned her channel for 2 months and she found the perfect excuse for that.
Yes.
In reality, I was a way too busy settling in and developing new habits to build my new life here.
Even though I'm not going to stay here for 6 years (actually we don't know yet), I live here.
Please note that I'm currently in Kuala Lumpur, but talking about Sydney. I think that you got that point so let's assume that you're clever enough and go on.
In fact, imagine that it looks me almost 2 weeks to understand and even believe that Sydney does really exist.
For me it was a city from books, movies and stories. At the beginning I had the feeling that I was on another planet where all humans were deported after a huge apocalypse!
People were driving on the left, ate poached eggs for breakfast, it was sunny all the time, Short, only things that I was not used to !
What was the keystone of the construction of my new life here really was meeting new friends.
And even if many of them left already, I'm really going to continue along this path because relationships are what anchors the most.
I just need to buy a gym membership, and everything will be right.
Or not.
In a bit more than ten days, I'll be back in Sydney and I swear that I can't wait.
I'm actually thinking about it every day !
Some people told me about the different adaptation stages when it comes to live abroad
But I'm really lost ! I have the feeling that I'm living 10 distinct steps at the same time.
Like I already lived my honeymoon, I already found some weaknesses in the city, but I still love Sydney anyway.
Of course some points are running wrong like the fact that it's so difficult to find pralines for example.
To summarize why I didn't post any videos here for more than 2 months :
With my English lessons, my social life and my practical life, I merely have seen a kangaroo so let's not talk about koalas.
I'm even not that certain that they really exist !
But with all of this you still don't know why I left !
Why ?
This year I decided that I didn't fuck*** care about what most of the people do.
That I didn't fuck*** care about what is more safe to do.
That I didn't funk*** care about what I should do.
And above all that I didn't fuck*** care about what it is possible to do.
Because if possible exists then impossible exists as well and I don't agree with that.
Do I look to old to think like a child ???
Sorryyyy.
So I decided that I was going to make a step backward (a 17 000km step)
To pull out from my polluted by conformist ideas mind what I really want to do of my life (Or at least for the 3 next years)
I'm going to make you a confession again but 2017 was really not a good year for me.
Even if I started new great projects,
even if I reached goals like writing my first book for instance,
I feel like it was one year too many in a too long cycle.
Here in Sydney I'm then trying to improve my English level.
And it will probable interest you but I'd like to use this opportunity to « plant a little seed » into the photography and why not advertising world in Sydney.
It's not going to be easy, I'll need courage.
If you have some for me, give it to me through comment section because L will really need it.
And if I'm finally able to drive a fuck*** youtube routine inside my under construction life here, I'll show you !
I think you'll enjoy it.
By the way little boudinous, It's crazy but we're more than 2000 here so keep being so enthusiastic, It pleases me so much !
Feel always free to share a video even if it's in a private conversation, etc
And if you have some little or big questions to ask, ask them because I'm going to set up a FAQ video soon.
I leave you with some images shot here and there in Sydney
And then I'll explain why I cut my hair in a more precise way if you're interested
n the meantime, leave a thumb up and a comment, subscribe, share, poo on each other, Iove ya, bye bye boudinous
If you're still there, I have a little message for you
When one has hair as long as I had
It is difficult actually to not think about donate them.
Even if you weigh the pros and cons.
Even seeing the pros win, it was not easy
But the reason that made me take the step out was the perspective to give them
And to participate to the wellness of woman who would have previously lost her hair due to a chemo
And who would have to wear a wig, made partly with my hair thus.
Yeah because a lot of hair are needed to make a wig actually.
It's a very simple process : You just have to order your envelope on Think Pink Coupe d'Eclat
Then to put your hair inside and to send them.
Merely.
Hair have to be clean, to be minimum 25 centimeters long and without any cosmetic product on them.
Think Pink is what works in Belgium but I'll put links for Switzerland, France, Canada, UK, US and Australia into the description section.
I encourage boys and girls that are thinking about cutting and donating their hair to do it
Because it's important, because It's a noble cause, because it's a positive cause
That we should all give because overall in life to give is the best thing to do.
It's true that the hair I cut could have brung me a lot of money but… honestly…
