Last post from the city (so to speak!) I stayed for a month and a half. You may
The time to sum up this one chapter is closing and that characterizes my long, wide and unpredictable journey through this magnificent land. However
as having more the appearance of a conclusion rather than an introduction, I can not do much more than the end of this post to find out how I do I rate this experience, but if you want to know more about what happened to me in these last 2 weeks, go to the next line!
A bit 'further down .. More ...
Here! (Liking me away !!!:- D)
back to my adventures (but better indicate the term that is suitable and misadventures) if you noticed that picture of the previous post I appear physically different from normal (I mean the beard) or you read the post by Vito, you're not wrong.
beginning of this adventure in Margaret River we crossed my mind to make us grow the beard for a month. For the series: we did not have a right to do the f ** k or !!!;-)
Mostly we also involved in this thing Andy and Wilhem. These results
:
And here is a typical Otto Von Bent Prussian duke on his right !!!=) 
more than my beard or that of Wil, admire her sandwich! !:-P As for the job I stress once again that we were very lucky (at least for the first part!) because besides the fact that we were chosen to continue the destruction of vineyards in Australia or others were no longer called for work or have worked day Alternatively, the work of recent weeks has been paid by the hour rather than per tree pruned because the pruning is finished. In fact the latest jobs we have done have been, among other things, fix or remove the wires that hold the related branches of plants (indicated by the English terms "wire-dropping" and "lifting"). Job to be part of a tremendous boredom, turned out to be an easy yet more disarming. In practice, we came to walk paid!:-D
So calm days interspersed or the fact that the three Asian girls who worked with us always called me to disconnect the wires are more difficult to do (that is why I was nicknamed Superman!:-P ) or some of my "lesson" from Italian to "Boar" (nickname of the girl from Taiwan who received lessons on my part).
Do not worry about the real possibility that you could learn Italian from me, the lessons were based on "italian bad words" that I consider myself an expert ... Eccheccazzo !!!=)
Before I referred to the fortune that has marked at least the first few weeks because, in the latter, there is far failed for various reasons, including:
1) Queen's Bithday, ie a day off in honor of Queen Elizabeth in England is usually celebrated on the 26th April, in the rest of Australia on 2 June and of course in Western Australia celebrated the last Monday in September:-S
My reflection is this: leaving aside the fact that here are celebrating a birthday that takes money without a cabbage (here you can see my sympathy to the royal house of Ingilterra!) not only from the Commonwealth but also a poor loser like me since I have not been able to work that day, I was wondering what is the point of celebrating the birthday in 3 different dates: 3 times or was born here, or everyone does a little 'what they like! I hope and I think that it is (positive or negative, this is the way to the Australian!) Because, among other things, are afraid of change from the time of winter / summer (while you have the reverse is true) because I heard rumors that every state and change the time on different days. I hope you do not miss any bus or plane for that reason because I could be seriously affected by this thing !!!:- X!
$% 2) The lack of professionalism and seriousness of those who work in society "Area" which is one of many national companies (but I refer only to that of Western Australia) who runs the farm work and more generally in agriculture, because in addition to making predictions "optimistic" on whether to work in the area ( but there may be) invents anything to fuck the money (excuse me but pass me the time!).
Among other things that I'm not here to list (and I say to you that are many!), To remember the $ 21 paid for a high-visibility vests (those orange how to use the highway to change tires) and the Safety glasses with the promise, however, the return of 50% of the sum after work. Now in addition to that $ 21 is overstatement of stuff for "Chinese" value, yes or no, $ 10 (I was off!) the thing that irritated me the most was that in the end discover that 50% did not ' I have even seen the girl with the telescope because the office has cheerfully announced that the rule of repayment had been changed.
All this controversy not because without that $ 10 I can not survive, but to question why he changed the choice of repayment, the girl told me that "the use of the vest and glasses is personal because the first is to contact with the skin of its users and the latter may facilitate the transmission of (get ready to laugh or bang your head, you do!) Conjunctivitis! "O-. Solve the problem by washing the vest of any trace of "my smell" on her head while the second or is it a problem that I did not know the existence (from now on will not try anymore glasses in stores!) Or I it seems a stretch to steal money.
Now who tells me that in Australia or in any other country other than Italy, this shit does not happen, as well as pull his **** kicked in, I urge you to live a little 'outside our borders first ** Wed to throw on our country because ultimately it's fashionable, even if things happen in Italy do not facilitate other than a bad habit .. This is not to make speeches nationalistic but just shows that the whole world is going on this country and in Australia and more!
back to the things that have happened to me, fortunately, our supervisor has left us in case the bus (reeds if only for a week) that led us to work every morning.
Fortunately, among other things, the bus has allowed us to make a "moving" less stressful by surfpoint resort to a hostel near the city.
We were able to fill !!!:- S 
A salute to the hostel but especially that crazy Marshall (do not feel the lack of any of your snoring His farts =) Yes we left this wonderful hostel where I left good memories.
The reasons are many: firstly, the price for some odd reason has been increased by the "friendly" (like a finger in the c ** or sand - and excuse me if it turns out to be just fine!) Manager named Matt.
My dislike stems from the fact that more than me that some people are on the bales in advance (and he was one of those!) Sought money dell'accomodation a way as if afraid that any day now run away without paying .
However I think the feeling was mutual because one evening, has "sgam" in front of the PC while we were "taking borrow "internet. But I must admit that there has been very in touch to turn around and put in the next day, a bell'avviso in which it was written that they risked being expelled from the hostel if there had been other incidents like this: too late since we left you back =) Even us put a camera (who previously monitored the kitchen) to make sure of it! Then
among other reasons that pushed us to leave, it was overwhelming that many of the occupants one by one they left the hostel.
Wilhelm was the first to leave because he was seeking a more lucrative: in fact I remember One evening when he said he was looking for a job as it was heavy, dangerous or unpleasant for his health, did make a quick buck!:-D
Apparently after being two weeks in a farm pigs, just the place where he has come to visit (I'm not here to enumerate what he could do as well as what type of odor was forced to breathe!) has moved north to go to a mango farm. I do not know which of the two is the worst since the collection of mango makes the likelihood of diseases such as influenza take due to a substance which the plant ha! I hope for him to have some aspirin below!
One of the many photos taken the night before his starting Heaven, undecided about his future given that the gains here were not satisfactory, he decided to return to Melbourne where he lived his first period in Australia seeking better fortune.
Ben and Kate (a very nice English couple) have left them too because of the price, but they are still in Margaret River. Andy
however has not moved very far since it is now in a farm where for 10 hours per week as a painter (which is his real job is that here in Australia is also well paid!) Is free meals, and if it opportunity also carries out other odd jobs since he, more than money, is interested in reaching the limit of 88 days working farm to ask for the second working holiday visa.
Fortunately, the last day we were at the hostel, we organized a nice BBQ farewell.
Life in the new hostel is not that exciting because we have not done a lot of knowledge from a guy named Fahim and our flatmate from Bangladesh for Vito turns out to be Chinese, Congolese, Filipino, Eskimo, etc.. etc. since no one ever remembers where he is a cute surfer and South Australia which is the cook in Karlgoorlie where there is one of the largest gold mines in Australia and that only 75,000 bucks (bucks) per year is also entitled to a week off every 2 with paid travel to any location in WA that he uses to go surfing. And here is a beautiful: STI COCKS !!!:- D
Objectively, I believe that being surfpoint the resort, which I consider the best hostel in which it has been so far in Australia, joined the company that was created, led to an "everyday" things that we had (without any effort whatsoever) are used. Then another note that was not in favor of the latter hostel, is that now we have entered into optical travel and for this reason we have not been very keen to make new friends. In fact, these last 2 weeks work we have passed in a totally quiet. However, I must break a lance in favor of why THIS is not so bad, but ... Judge for yourself:
Fortunately, the last weekend of September came to visit us Raffaella, I knew on the forum and working on Northcliffe a remote village about 200km from here at a farm of cows (and cows!:-D) precisely because it has a branch of science degree in animal husbandry (I can not remember the exact address I hope it goes well written like :-) and so is his own real job and her friend Michael, also known on the forum, who works at a hotel in Pemberton, which is always in this area.
Just arrived, after a quick ride on some beaches in the area, the program included the usual (but always welcome!) Ride from the cellars of MR for free tasting of wines, in addition to cheese, chocolate and cereals and cookies (and third time I do and I have the distinct feeling that people who work in those places start to remember me:-S)
Luckily no consequence for the return as the "Great "Raffi guide united all'affidabilissima ford" distemper "(because of the color ;-) I did spend a quiet and peaceful journey!
Note the parking lot!: P-Ps a salute to the mother of Raffi I know that sometimes reads my blog ;-)
the evening we ended up with a nice dinner and a trip to the local pub to close properly the day that was characterized by a slight "vein" alcoholic ;-)
The day after another round at the many beaches in the area all natural and not documented by photos !; D-
Finally we finished the weekend with another lunch to greet worthily the 2 guests who have made km with all these ford "stable" (because of the unusual smell in the machine =) .. Heroic to visit us!
course before you leave this place where I spent no less than 7 weeks, we had to organize another great BBQ this time in the prefabricated house with all the comfort (and I'm not kidding!) Andy.
As a friend of mine would say it was a real bbq "HEAVY" both in terms of food swallowed (imagine that after a while Vito 'has stopped eating because they do not take it anymore: stuff that will remain in the annals :-D)
beer is drained by Andy ...
Here was "sad" because of my departure!:-D And now the long-awaited conclusions .. (if you do not want to bore you, stop here! ;-)
Certainly in this remote corner of Australia left a piece of me for what I experienced, but certainly that sense of melancholy that you can have at this moment is exceeded by the fact that I have seen places, and lived experiences why not, meet people who have given me so many ways and I think I have made it even stronger than it is temperamentally.
course on this trip I will get to live similar experiences and to meet other wonderful people that will succeed and I will quickly forget the adventure of Margaret River, but it does not matter because I believe that each of these is like a brick of a big house that I can compare my life ( but more generally to the life of each of us) so I can not but be pleased with the way they are now taking up the "work ".;-)
you again from Melbourne .. (forse!
:-) Too easy mate =)
