My first home：Bear’s home

Going abroad by myself for the first time

With blessings from family and friends

1 suitcase, 1 backpack, 1 courage

A former colleague asked me what I expected from going on a working holiday. I thought it must be to get to know myself better, to face people and things alone, and to feel the sky of a foreign country.

For me, who has never tried to travel alone, never had the opportunity to live in a hall, and was pampered like a princess every day, going abroad alone is not an easy task. In fact, I can’t figure out where I got the courage to do so. Just want to go😂

After a 9-hour flight, I arrived at Melbourne, my first stop in Australia and the city where I stayed the longest. And my first home, Bear’s home,which I chose a Taiwanese landlord who had immigrated to Melbourne for many years. I am very grateful to the landlord for their hospitality and introduction.

At that time, I rented a bed in a 4-person girls’ dormitory with 2 other Taiwanese girls and 1 Hong Kong girl. There were about 8 people living in the whole house, sharing 1 kitchen & 3 bathrooms. In this way, my wonderful working holiday this year has officially started.😁
