So I'm sitting in the airport waiting to head home to Perth - I can't believe a month has passed. So much has happened and at the same time it seems such a short time. I've spent a month getting to know Melbourne - the people, the place, the lifestyle, the food.
One thing I can say is it's very different Perth and I can see why people from Perth may love it more - there's definitely a lot more things to do here. But I'm a small city girl I love my laid-back lifestyle, empty streets, small crowds. Having said that the food in Melbourne is pretty epic. So anyways as this has basically been a trial run for moving here I have to say the one thing that has helped me come to terms with moving away from Perth is the people. I have to say everybody here has really been welcoming and made me feel at home here in Melbourne. I love the sense of community I feel at church.
I know I'm going to miss Perth like crazy, especially my friends and family, but maybe I should look at the move as a new chapter that God is opening for me. There are still so many unknowns on the horizon and God may still yet have a better plan for me but I know that if it's moving to Melbourne then that's something I know with God's guiding hand I can handle and adapt to.
