The blow-in…


Well, I sold my house in Brisbane and bought a house in Cairns. Yay me. I’ve worked hard to get where I am and I deserve a reward for effort. Interestingly enough the minute I had a house secured I got offered a really good job. Do you know why? Because I have bought a house I’m now not viewed solely as the city slicker blow-in who’s not going to stick around – but - I’m also not a local. I think that takes 10 years and the ability to drive over cane toads without blinking.

Ah the future looks bright…

Sorry Amarinda, but I don't think you're ever considered a 'local' until you've grown that 6th toe ;)

Congrats on both the house and the job!
