As much as I like living in Australia, there are some things I'm starting to miss about home. Dana, a friend from home who has been backpacking down under for about 10 months now, is currently staying with me in Melbourne. Last night, we were reminiscing about the things we missed most:
1) Chick-Fil-A.
2) A trip to the local Mexican hot spot for chips, salsa, and margaritas (Melbourne has like 3 Mexican restaurants, and they do not use spices).
3) Iced tea, southern style.
4) Driving to the store at 2am in the morning, because you know it will be open and stocked with whatever your heart desires at that time of morning.
5) Not hearing "Ta", short for "Thanks" here. Why "Thanks" needs to be shortened, I will never understand.
6) Central heating and air conditioning.
Melbourne, Mate!
