Wellington then Europe

It's been a while since I've written anything on here, but that's because it's been a while since I've been anywhere apart from Sydney or the Central Coast... I've had a really interesting year and a half since I left Colombia: I've been finishing off my social work degree, which has included two really worthwhile 4 month placements, the first at a mental health unit in Campbelltown, and the second with Nura Gili, the Indigenous programs centre at the University of New South Wales. I also spent about 4 months doing refugee casework with Amnesty International, which was really challenging and taught me a lot, so things certainly haven't been boring, even though I've been in the same city for over a year. Tomorrow I'm going to travel again, and it's a good feeling. I'm going to Wellington (in New South Wales, not New Zealand), where I'll spend a week working on a community project as part of my final placement for my social work degree, then the very next day I'm heading to Europe for a bit of a break and to go to a wedding (a friend's, not my own) ... Anyway, instead of writing emails I'm just gonna make the odd blog posting, so anything interesting that I do that I think's family friendly enough to be put online will be recorded here...
