Moving...Again!


It’s hard to believe but we have been here in Sydney for five months now. And wouldn't you know it, one month before our lease was up we got word from our landlord that he was planning to raise our rent an extra $150...PER WEEK. Obviously, we were not happy to hear such news. However, we found a great two bedroom apartment in a suburb just over the bridge from the central business district. We jumped on it right away and gave our two weeks notice to our landlord. This all happened just about two weeks ago, which means come this Saturday we are moving. For those of you who are interested, our new address is 2/65 Upper Pitt Street, Kirribilli, NSW 2061.

We posted a picture of our new neighborhood above. It’s an aerial view looking south-west. Kirribilli is in the foreground. It’s a great little village community with a Brooklyn feel to it. It’s also where a lot of our friends live - in fact, 8 of them live on our street! So as we are dreading the actual act of moving again, we are definitely excited to move into our new place. And to be sure we don't get a surprise from our new landlord in another 6 months time, we decided signed a 12 month lease.

And don't forget, we still have an extra bedroom so hopefully we'll see some of you over here soon.
