Best. Two Months. EVER.
October 19, 2015by: Anonymous - MartinsvilleConstant fun. All the time. It legitimately set the awesomeness bar high for the rest of my life. I miss Australia every day; the friendly people, the unrivaled beauty, the exchange rate, all of it. I made some of the best friends I could ask for while experiencing one of the best cities in the world. I interned at a law firm (which was the chillest work environment I could have imagined), scuba dove the Great Barrier Reef, jet-boated in the harbor, and made memories I'll remember until the day I die.
