]]> Comment on 10 Things to do in New York City for Free by Angie http://www.travelettes.net/10-things-to-do-in-new-york-city-for-free/comment-page-1/#comment-4434 Angie Wed, 16 May 2012 12:51:03 +0000 http://www.travelettes.net/?p=20848#comment-4434 Ever since the day I watched Breakfast at Tiffanies I have desperately wanted to explore New York. This blog is by far the best travel blog I have read. Not only is this blog a pleasure to read, but it has information that is actually relevant to young globe trotters like myself, who have too much adventure in their blood, and not enough money in their bank accounts. The photographs really inspired me and it's a relief to find a blog where the bloggers are creating content and not just reposting other peoples. I just decided my next holiday destination is New York! Ever since the day I watched Breakfast at Tiffanies I have desperately wanted to explore New York.

You go to cheap country as that is what your money gets you. Travelling 12 hours in stuck like sardin, while others enjoy first class with lot of room and remember those who work long got the money to do what ever they like for rest of their lives. Value of your house and saving when you are 50, in most western countries gives you rest of your life in india or asia in particularly. So you decide escape work and routine? Maybe responsibilities also. I have been spending last year in London, studying. Life have been so easy. No stress, just go when feel strangled, see London in some other part of beautiful city. For me travelling is escape from responsibilities. Study abroad is one of those, you dont get pressure around you to graduate fast and get job. Buy house and have loan until you reach that magical 50 or lick someones ass to get high paid job. Imagine that now a days even lottery winners arent richest people on earth. Money change, media effect and people around you. Best part was going home and see others having nice car and house. Living in good standard rather than sleep ith 10 other people in same room feeling akward whole the time. Thats what young and not working can afford, or like basic job that pays you like peanuts in sociaty eyes, but that money is 100 times more in asia. Well its up to graps what you wanna do? Couple of years may or may not be lost in your own life, but when opportunities come you make desiccion and you are responssible for it. Nobody knows how world is gonna be tomorow. Remember to enjoy life as it comes. This is place you are now. Enjoy dont always think worst things. You got food and are able to leave anytime so enjoy enjoy enjoy!!!!

I have to book my sessions 6 months in advance at the moment ( i have about 35-40 hours in the chair under my belt). A busy tattoo artist is often a good artist.

]]> Comment on Aussies speak Australian, NOT English by bianca http://www.travelettes.net/aussies-speak-australian-not-english/comment-page-1/#comment-4421 bianca Tue, 15 May 2012 00:10:08 +0000 http://www.travelettes.net/?p=8955#comment-4421 The one thing that can be said for the Australian take on English is that we shorten every word possible (or at least in Perth where I come from). I'm sure other English speaking countries shorten certain words to, but I would be surprised if they went to the same extent as us Australians. Train Station = Traino Barbecue = Barbie Goalkeeper = Goalie Fremantle (my hometown) = Freo Football = Footy Afternoon = Arvo Australia = Aus/Oz Mosquito = Mozzie Present = Prezzie Moment = Mo (also used for moustache) Umpire = Ump/Umpi It's ridik!

Train Station = Traino

Fremantle (my hometown) = Freo
Football = Footy

Mosquito = Mozzie
Present = Prezzie
Moment = Mo (also used for moustache)
