Hi Fiona! I’ll be on this tour too :) I’m Tricia, I’m 20, and I’m from the US, but I’ve been living and studying in Australia for the past 4 months. This tour is my last bit of traveling abroad before I return home to Boston for the holidays, I’m so excited!!!! Where in Australia are you from?

Hey Tricia! I’m from Perth, Western Australia. Where abouts in Australia are you living? And what are you studying? I’m just finishing up my degree in Psych/Youth Work so this trip is my reward to myself for finally getting through!! Wow, I bet you’re excited to go home for the holidays too! Where abouts is Boston in the US? I know of it, Boston that is, but I suck at geography so don’t really know where it is in relation to everything else.. Good luck with your studies and exams if you have them :) Fiona

I’m living in Brisbane, studying Environmental Science at the University of Queensland. This sounds like a great reward :) I am very excited to go home after 6 months away, but I’m going to miss the warm weather so much! Haha Boston is the capital of the state of Massachusetts, on the Northeast coast of the US (about a 4 hour drive from NYC, if that helps you picture it). I’ve had such an amazing time in Australia I’m so sad to leave, although I can’t wait to get to NZ!!!!! Thanks so much for the well wishes… Excited to meet you! Hopefully some other people on our tour introduce themselves on here too!
