he toughest thing about moving to a new city is having to start over and build new friendships. Especially when most people around my age are settled and finished uni they seem to have quite stable and tight knit friendship circles that there can be little room or need to expand on. Uni is probably a better time to make new friends in my opinion but hell I’ll keep at it! I don’t think people really get how isolating it can be moving to a new place. I still miss my friends and family back home a lot even though I’ve been away from Adelaide for two and half years now. The friends I made in Canberra were great too so miss them as well. It does take me a while to find my feet –at least a year I would say.
None the less - my wonderfully funny and good friend back home from uni days introduced me to a friend here in Melbourne recently. It’s really awkward at first to make friends with strangers but eating out and sharing a passion for food is always a great bonding experience!
Had a great night out on what I won’t refer to as a double date but kinda was (eeew!). Great time at Melbourne Hwaro Korean BBQ (read Hwaro restaurant review here) was awesome! Definitely worth taking your family and friends to experience. The couple we dined with are real foodies and know their restaurants well. They always pick great places and know what to order off the often perplexing menu and choice available!
Such a gorgeous couple – really genuinely nice people! They even invited us back to their place and we seriously went to woollies and bought vanilla ice cream and then they proceeded to whip up some homemade butterscotch sauce (with actual scotch). There were 4 really happy campers that night! So yum!
