+ AUSTRALIA

THE JOURNEY


THE PEOPLE


THE LOVELY


I really should have explained all of this to you earlier, but now is better than later and here is the big news:

We're moving to Australia!  (This is where I insert far too many exclamation marks and a happy dance.)

 It's strange and exciting and confusing all at the same time, but it is God's will and we are (yes, really are) moving countries for the fourth time.  Already confused?  Well, my traveling life began in Canada, and we somehow managed to live in the US for around 10 years, and then we flew over to England and now my dad has been offered a job in Australia.  So, we're flying to Australia next Tuesday(!) and will live there for however long God calls us to be there. 

One more thing:  Are you living in Australia?  If so, please contact me me and let me know where you are and just maybe we'll happen to live near each other; wouldn't it be lovely to meet up? 

Let the adventure begin!
xx, Acacia

      Thankfully, I have stuck with my Canadian accent! Many people in Britain think I'm American, though; they have a hard time telling the difference between Candian/American accents. ;P You've got me thinking though...maybe I should record myself/do a little vlog for y'all!

    1. Aw, thanks so much, Grace! Yes, it most certainly IS a dramatic change; I basically don't have much of an idea of what to expect except beaches and warm weather and Australian accents and kangaroos. ;P I'll miss dear & sweet little England but I'm pretty ready for this new journey. love you, too! xx, acacia

      Good day everyone, My name is Henry Adams, I'm 32yrs old, I live with the most devastating illness for the past 5years
      no, I was married and because of my illstate, my wife left me but luckingly she didnt contacted it. What am I talking about, HIV/AIDS,
      she always insisted that we should use condom because she was affraid to get it, she later left me a month after our wedding.
      I lived like a helpless animal for 6 months, I went to hospital but there was no cure for me just good healthcare. I almost lost my job
      because of my ilness. A day came when i search in the internet and met Dr odetokun, an African doctor that cures hiv/aids, I told him about my
      illstate and how deppinated i was to be cured. He assured me not to worry about it and prescribed the cure for me and how i would take it. It was
      just like yesterday . I want to thank Dr Odetokun for saving my life and my career. Here is his email(Drodetokun@gmail.com) and you can also contact him
      on his mobile number(+2348134594549) Thanks....
