Trip to Melbourne - 2

Finished the meeting yesterday afternoon and had an early sleep last night to recover the lost energy. For having less than 4 hours sleep on the plane the night before, I honestly think my performance was better than expected - at least I still kept my eyes open and stayed awake answering questions during the meeting :)

Weather in Melbourne is lovely, sunny and not windy. Our office here has a very impressive lobby with grand space, huge palace-style columns, indoor ponds, several artistic sculptures and large paintings, as well as magnificent view to see the whole Melbourne city from the top. I can even see the sea from our office, reminding me our Toronto office where I can also see the Ontario Lake. It’s a green city surrounded by several parks and a beautiful river flows across the heart of the city.

Few of my friends who are originally from Auckland and now working in Melbourne also highly encourage me to come here. Even the taxi driver did the same persuasion thing. Maybe I shall give it a thought too apart from working in Sydney if one day I am tired of the life in Asia and not yet want to go back working in NZ.
