That wasn’t the plane I wanted to stay in Sydney for more three months and then the last month in Australia spend it in Melbourne and travelling around but it wasn’t possible the things become complicate in Sydney for the job so I had to leave if I wanted to make money, I booked the flight to Melbourne even if I know it that they could force me to do the quarantine in a Hotel at my own expenses but I thought that with the border pass everything was fine which it wasn’t because I was coming from a Civid hotspot, Sydney was declared like that in December when I arrived because they found few cases in the Northern Beaches so they force me to do the Hotel quarantine once I get in Melbourne.

But when I went to work I realised that there were few new Covid cases in the city but I didn’t really panicked because I thought that we will be in lockdown only for 5 days as it happened in February, when I arrived I work I checked my phone and at 6 pm the State of South Australia already closed the border with Victoria but I worked like usual well knowing that might be the last night but for a short lockdown. Anyway with the gym I was more tired then usual so I didn’t even wanted to think about escaping northings like that so I just thought to do the lockdown and that’s it. When I come after work on Wednesday I couldn’t sleep at all I started to panicked and just checking the news since it comes up that Thursday 27th of May at mid night we were going in a lockdown of seven days which for me was a lot I didn’t expected. Anyway Thursday I went to work till mid night but I wasn’t in the mood at all actually I was really sad an depressed and I left even before I couldn’t work at all.

WEEK from 31.05 to 06.06 ( Fourth lockown )

Monday I woke up I eat something and then I went out for a walk at the Southbank promenade, but today I started to panicked a lot because the Covid cases are increasing and I didn’t wanted to lose an other week of work because it means less money and I wanted to have same holidays for my birthday that is in a month. So I decided to go to Sydney which they really didn’t closed the borders but is like February I need an exemption so the only solution is if I’m coming from Tasmania ad example and I’m transiting in the Melb airport but in the declaration form if u lie you have to pay a high fine, anyway I bought the flight from Hobart to Melb and from Melb to Sydney but I was very afraid. After the walk I called my mum and once I arrived at home I pack everything for the day after, then I went to sleep but I couldn’t at all I was to anxious for the day after. At the end I was to afraid so I decided to not do it even if they were extend the lockdown for an other week. Tuesday I was more depressed then the da after I went to the Victoria Markets then I did a bit of groceries and I cooked the dinner and watch tv series all night basically. Wednesday when I wok up the day was really sunny and nice so I decide to take a walk around till the Alexandra Garden and further to the Botanical Garden till evening then relax and sleep, eve if I was sure that the lockdown is extend I was trying to keep calm even if I was definitely desperate and I was thinking all day a way to escape but I couldn’t find anything useful. Thursday the lockdown was extended for an other week, and that freaks me out a lot actually but was a sunny day and we could go further then 5 km from the home so I went with the tram to Elwood Beach which it was amazing and I chilled at the Point Ormod Lookout and in the main time a man answer to my post on Facebook because when I was panicking I asked if someone was planning to leave Melbourne and this man has a transport pets business which I can go with his company next Wednesday to Sydney which it would be perfect for me. So then I come back home and finally I was happy and I relaxed all night watching tv series. Friday I was a bit tired and annoyed because I didn’t really have friends that I can spend time with them so I was feeling a bit lonely and Nazaret was with her boyfriend so I just stayed a home organising the weekend in an Airbnb in the city by myself just to chill and relax in a better place then the Hostel. Saturday same I just stayed in the hostel arranging photos, writing, cooking and watching tv series. Finally Sunday I woke up happy because I decided to rent a nice apartment in the city for two night only for my self which I could relax and enjoy a nice atmosphere instead of staying in the hostel with crazy people only, so I did the check in at 2 pm then I went to buy a bit of alcohol and food and then I went home relaxing I ordered a lot of pizzas and it was really nice totally enjoyed my own company in the apartment at the 51th floor at CBD Sky-high 462 Elizabeth Street.

Monday was so good wake up in my own apartment with an amazing view relaxing and all day I just took photos listen to music and then in the evening I did a really nice dinner I ordered a lot of sushi and enjoyed the evening by myself, then Tuesday unfortunately was already the time to check out in the morning and I left to go back to the Hostel pack everything to leave Wednesday morning. Because the lockdown was extended again and again so I decided to find a solution to leave which I was very lucky because I post an announce on Facebook an luckily a random man answer me and he told me that he could help me because he has a company of Pet transportation around Australia and every Wednesday they do Melbourne to Sydney which for me was basically perfect because I try to do the lockdown for the first time in my life it was horrible I was too anxious so I desperately try to escape and I was afraid and everything it was definitely too much. I was so blessed that I found this man willing to help me to escape and making a fake border permit to cross the border and go to Sydney.

Then I went to the spa as well to relax a bit and for the dinner I order it in the room from the Nobu Restaurant which it was very delicious even if it was a simple dinner. Totally liked the experience and very relaxing.Tuesday I woke up I get ready and I went to the Conservatory to do the breakfast absolutely amazing place with a buffet breakfast everything delicious and then at 11 am I did the check out and I back to the Hostel relax a bit and sleep basically and in the evening I went out for a dinner with Carolina my roommate at Movida Restaurant and then we come back to the hostel, call my friend Francesca stay a bit around the hostel with her and then going to sleep early. Wednesday I celebrate my second birthday in the opposite side of the world discovering that I was born in winter so I decided to do a day try in the snow at the Mt. Buller few hours from Melbourne. I woke up at 4:30 am getting ready to go to the mountain catching the bus at 5:30 in the CBD doing few stop around and then arriving at Mt Buller at 11 am it was really nice but the village was very small as well very freezing so I couldn’t do much I just walk a bit around took few photos I did the lunch at The Birdcage and then I did again few walks around but definitely it was too cold, very freezing and at 4 pm I had to go back to the bus which I arrived in Melbourne around 8 pm. It was a very great day and amazing atmosphere happy to have seen as well the mountain in Victoria but it was also a bit stressful because I found out that there are new Covid cases in the city so I got afraid for an other lockdown. In fact Thursday morning everywhere was written that an other lock down was happening ASAP so I went to the club I took my stuff then I went to the bank and I didi all the last things and then when at 5 pm the snap lockdown of 5 days was announced and my boss texted me as well I took and Uber immediately to the airport, it was pretty late actually and the orders were closing t mid night, when I arrived at the airport there were no more flights available unfortunately I tried to find something but was very hard the only flight that I found was the one to Hobart very expensive but well it was the only chance to leave the city. So at 8:30 pm with Qantas I flew to Hobart which I landed at 9:45 pm, my second time in Cassie in the 2021.

BACK TO MELBOURNE AFTER THE FIFTH LOCKDOWN

Since I moved to Melbourne at the begging of January I really had an hard time, because on February happened the first lockdown that I left the city the at the end of May happened the second lockdown and and than in July just after my birthday happened again an other lockdown. So it was a really hard time the first six months in Melbourne I thought that I could work a lot a save same money but unfortunately didn’t happened because of all those lockdowns, anyway any regrets because I can say that I’ve visited all Australia now basically.

WEEK from 28.07 to 01.08

Wednesday morning I did the last walk around Brisbane before saying good bye to Laura and leaving the city around 2 pm to go to Gold Coast airport to come back to Melbourne I flew with Virgin airways I depart at 5:55 pm and I landed at 8:20 pm and then I took theses to The Village Hostel which I did the check in and I ordered the pizzas for dinner with my room mate and then I went to sleep. Thursday I slept almost all day because I was very tired and then I went to work in the evening which it was pretty hard as usual going back after two weeks and the club was pretty empty. Then Friday I went to the gym and the work for Saturday and Sunday unfortunately I didn’t get the shift because the club is half capacity of patrons due to the restrictions post lockdown, so Saturday I went to Play Lounge with my Spanish friend and then then I come back to the hostel I had a diner with my Argentinian room mat and one of her friend and then I called a bit my mum and Sunday I just chilled at home writing and arranging photos.

WEEK from 02.08 to 08.08 ( Sixth lockdown )

The following days I’ve been working even if there were few restrictions, Monday Tuesday Wednesday it wasn’t too great but still I’m grateful that I’ve been working but then when I woke up on Thursday totally in hangover from the day before I realised that the government just set a lockdown the Sixth one in Victoria and the Sixth than I’m doing since I’m in Australia, I just come back to Melbourne last week and here we are an other lockdown unbeivable the hunger inside of me was too much the frustration because I really wanted earn some money but looks impossible with those lockdowns so I was feeling very bad, I thought that was the time to go back to Italy I was really thinking about it but then I though that I should try one more time before leaving. So Thursday I was very depressed, Friday as well I did nothing just stayed by myself and they to think about all the things that I have to do I was very depressed but what I could do ? nothing it was too much psychologically. Saturday I felt a bit better even if I absolutely didn’t know what to do but I decided to stay in Australia I stayed with my roomate Carolina all day, we had a dinner together and then in the evening we stayed downstairs in the reception in the company of the other people in the hostel and then we went to sleep around 4 am because for me was really hard get out of the work routine. Sunday Carolina cooked for me the lunch and then we spend all noon together talking and all the evening eating and around the hostel. So the first three days of the lockdown was really hard I had to decided what to do first if I wanna leave and go back to Italy or stay in Australia, after decide if I should stay in Melbourne or escape to Adelaide. Even if it was really hard I decided to stay one more week in Melbourne in

BACK IN MELBOURNE

( Chanel shop Christmas decoration, Melbourne )

After three months in Adelaide and two weeks of holidays in Darwin I’ve decided to try to come back to Melbourne, even if at that time a bit complicated due to the COVID situation, the city reopened everything there is no more lockdown but a lot of things changed and without a COVID passport vaccination you couldn’t enter in any venues, shop, bars, restaurants, clubs for everything needs the COVID vaccine passport which I don’t have it. I decided to risk to take the plane and go back, do again the interview at my work place hoping that I could go back and planning a plan B-C-D in case I couldn’t go back to work in the same club. I didn’t wanna go to Adelaide again, I just left and was hard the last month I’ve been really depressed and sad so I thought that go back in Melbourne and focus on money could be the best solution for myself and my metal ealth. But it wasn’t. I changed and I didn’t wanna money at that time I wanted enjoy life find friends go out, maybe find a love and start a new life dreaming about Los Angeles. So I decided to leave Australia I did my time there it was enough I make money that’s was the plan but no I need to move on and keep living and experiment.
