I feel sick, it constantly on the toilet and everything hurts. Welcome to paradise! On Friday I met with Rob and Annette still my Couchsurfing's successor, a nice young English couple. I drank two or three of coffee, toast and ate four made my way to 13:20 clock aufn Benny M. my new host. Four hours and 70km later I should have arrived. The first feeling of happiness I had when I had the certainty that I'm going by train in the right direction. For in Mt.Druitt nothing is signposted, but thanks to Internet, I knew I must be on platform 2. And luckily I caught the right, also unmarked, train. After 70 minutes by train and change once I reached my terminus. Mascot. Up to the couch I said there were 8.6 km GoogleEarth and I shared before with Benny (before we changed only one each message a day, not even 24 hours before, off) that I will be 17 against clock with him. Now it was 15:15 clock. I had two options. The free (!, As the terminal stations such as Mascot have no other better port connectivity) to take a bus or walk to good luck. Would I take the bus, I would have to still find the bus stop to the couch, so too would have been no guarantee. I decided therefore for running (even if bus was, of course the more convenient option). Knew I had to go east. And so I just went to the East, of course with two backpacks. It was beautiful summer weather (sounds stupid, but that it is winter). And in the beginning was also fun to walk. Where it's always more fun when you have the assurance that you walk in the right direction, otherwise you always have in mind that the whole way for nothing and must be back later to walk again. Be that as it ... I walked and walked ... the minutes went well. It went uphill and downhill. At one point I was tired, especially since I do not even know if I am right now, and I betrayed signs the approximate direction. At the right time was, what is not unusual in the suburbs around a shopping cart. So I grabbed his backpack and tied off in the car and went for a walk then: D. After maybe 15 minutes but I switched back to the familiar and anstrengereren pace, since I was in the busy area. Eventually I dragged myself just go ahead only, has sought a foot before the other set - but always with the certainty that I end up of the day, anyway, somewhere - or come. Almost on time at 17:17 clock, I stood before Benny's house. Residential block. Good time management. So I pressed his number, but no one I opened the door. No one at home. The message by Couch Surfing was also only this: Hey Benny, I can come tomorrow for you and kip on your sofa? his dignity as against 17 clock. And he answered, "Yes, it is clear until then.
drenched in sweat as I was now used the darkness and the cold. Maybe after 25 minutes of waiting made me a house residents at least wait on the landing. 20 pages of John Grisham was later a couch surfer from Benny and I came to his apartment. Finally here. I hurt anything. The other couch surfers say Beau and reminds me somehow of Beauchamp from the club at that time ... do not know why. Beau is a true golden boy with the appearance of the Backstreet Boys from the nineties, is also from Florida and dressing up in my six hours of attendance twice the teeth, using dental floss at all. Nevertheless, I come with him out wonderful: D. Benny was a little late and the expected small hippie-gnome only the right half. Yes it is small, but totally treatable. Although he lives only of natural products, the entire refrigerator is full of vegetables, who eats no meat and drink no alcohol, his apartment looks like the 5-flat, but despite his 40 Lenzen I come with him wonderfully clear. First of all he took from my broken camera, took it apart, but they could not fix. Benny has esteemed ten laptops of IBM, about ten years old ....
Anyway. On Friday morning I did not feel sooo soo good and the 2h-skiing (Absolute freedom: D) with backpack and waiting at the doorstep my situation has not improved. Especially my stomach and my digestive problems were preparing rhythm. As Benny's girlfriend took a shower last night, I stood in the kitchen and kept the pressure hardly outstanding. I knew I needed a quick toilet. Unfortunately, there is only one in the small apartment where four people are currently living so. And as I already forged emergency plans, went to the bathroom door and I sprinted to Benny's girlfriend, the fragrant and singing with a roten Handtuch bekleidet aus dem Bad kam, vorbei, schloss die Tuer und es folgte ein Akt der Erleichterung, den wir nur aus Filmen wie Dumm und Duemmer kennen....oder auch nicht.
Schlafen tue ich auf einer Couch, werde also dem Namen voll gerecht. Als ich gegen Mitternacht mich zu Bette begab, suchte ich alle zehn Minuten den Baderaum auf und mein Koerper gluehte, dennoch fror ich. Meine Beine und Ruecken taten mehr weh als zu Bundzeiten. Leider wurde ich nicht erst heute "krank", dann koennte ich sagen, dass es am Oeko-Futter liegt. Aber ein echter Uckermaerker kennt keinen Schmerz und heute geht es mir auch schon besser, auch wenn ich viel Fluessigkeit verloren habe.
Was habe ich heute, am Samstag gemacht? 10 Uhr aufgestanden, Like all in the house. And because I sleep in the living room, I am awakened course automatically. For breakfast there was a coffee with plenty of sugar, until I explained it was not Benny real sugar, but sugar-free sweetness and the package costs 14 dollars. Well ... your fault but still tastes like sugar. Benny and his girlfriend went to work, Beau and outside the home, but came straight back. I first went to Marouba Beach, which is, in my opinion the best of Bondi, Cronulla and Coggee. Beautiful sand beach, beautiful promenade, massive waves (estimated 3-4 meters). Perhaps my good feeling has to do with it on Saturday morning with massive banging Sonner people went to the beach. And then I went looking for something Meaty. Beau advised mir den Bus zu nehmen, wolle ich unbedingt einen Coles oder Woolworths finden, da hier in Strandnaehe es sowas nicht gibt. Auf meine Frage, wie lange denn ein Fussmarsch waere, antwortete er 20 Minuten...Oh man. Also ging ich auch exakt 20 Minuten, kaufte acht Broetchen, 2kg Fleisch, Kaese, 1kg Zwiebeln und 1kg Joghurt ein. Gesamt fuer 28,20 Dollar. Und was hilft gegen Bauchschmerzen? Richtig - ein fettiger Burger. Made by Rick und kostet das Stueck etwa 1,30 Dollar. Runtergespuelt wurde es mit Leitungswasser. Dieses kann man naemlich in Sydney trinken, aber Oeko Benny filtert es trotzdem nochmal, da noch paar Chemikalien sonst vorhanden waeren.
Nun ist es 15 Uhr, ich werd noch etwas das Essen verdauen, n paar Bananen und Joghurt futtern, wohl nochmal zum Strand gehen und ab 18 Uhr zum BBQ gehen, Beau lud mich zu irgendwas ein. Naja mal sehen. Morgen, sollte ich nicht tot aufwachen (haha), wird wohl gejoggt, da es hier ne wunderbare Location zum Joggen gibt. Strand, Wald, Bergauf und Bergab. Bilder gibt es die Tage auch mal.
