Some five minutes later and I've found him. We get on a car (quite +a luxury one) and he drives to Wollongong. There's another man in the car: he's +coming from the airport, too. Maybe someday I'll know who he is. + +Wollongong is just what I saw from the plane window: a big urban conglomerate. +We stop in Corrimal (a suburb), and I'm dumped in a house with a kid, telling +me Maryann will be here shortly. Maryann reveals herself to be my temporary +host, till Sunday: my homestay family is on holiday (but do they ever work?). +Tomorrow we'll get to University. No sooner: I could not survive it. + +My impression of the city landscape: chaotic. Hundreds of small to medium +shops, selling everything, claiming to be '100% australian owned' and the like. +Similar to some English country town, or the outskirts of London, but with a +stronger commercial mark. Will I get used to it? Will I not lose myself? We'll +see: I've plenty of time to make mistakes. + +The house: the kid is fatty, no sign of a man, the bathroom is quite dirty. +Then I get it: it's the kid's bathroom. Maryann has another bathroom, opening +on the kitchen. Is there a husband? + +Dinner with a friend of hers. Beverage: red wine. Asking water seemed unpolite. +Japanese rice curry: pretty good. To bed early, I'm tired. |
