On 30th September
2014, I got a lift with my mum from my home of Pembrokeshire, to meet up with
my brother in Swansea, south Wales. We had a nice lunch together, before moving
on to the train station. Having a coffee at the station, the three of us stayed
together for as long as possible, before I needed to board my train. It had
cost very little extra to buy a First Class ticket from Swansea to London, so
as this then included all food and drink and guaranteed me a comfortable seat,
I had gone ahead and indulged in the First Class ticket. I met my husband in
London and he showed me to our hotel for the night.
On 1st October 2014,
my husband officially joined the Australian Army, having transferred from the
British Army, and that afternoon we were taken by minibuses – along with
several other families in the same situation – to the airport for our flight to
Hong Kong.
On 5th October 2014,
after a 2-night stopover in Hong Kong, we finally arrived in Townsville,
Queensland, Australia, for a different kind of adventure: EMIGRATION.
I had never been to Australia
before, and emigration brings about many mixed feelings, but I was excited
about my new home. Since coming here I have been enjoying it more and more, a
trend that I hope continues as long as possible!
