We are Family


Today: 28 January 2008
Departure Time: 11 pm
Destination: Brisbane


Today is the day of departure. crazy things needed to be done. collecting paycheques, buying baby milk, getting our last fill of mom's ketam curry......We've been wearing the same clothes for 3 days! Eeewww...smelly.

The excitement is bone chilling but the sadness is melancholy. here's a pic of our extended family on Ariff's side.

Presenting - The Uncultured Nomads



A New beginning: Part 1

Destination: Brisbane
Time to destination: 12 days to go

Nervous factor - 60%
Packing factor - 75%

There is only less than 2 weeks before my little nuclear family make the big move to the great Outback. In 12 days, me, my husband, Ariff and my daughter, Aerin (19 months) will be left maidless and parentless as we make the small steps for a better life. Lets just hope they sell belacan there! My budu is so coming with me - those poor Immigration folks. I hope they don't faint at the smell of budu.
