My Adventure

My Adventure 
Coming to Australia 
I was born in 1971 my place of birth is Vietnam.I was separated from my family because I was hit by a piece of metal.Doctors and nurses took me to Australia to get me fixed up.When I was better Australian family adopted me and then I became their son.The first place I lived was Torrens, which is one of the suburbs in Canberra. 

My schooling 
We lived there for four years and moved on to a different place.Then we moved to Red Hill and stayed there for six years.Red hill was the best school I went to.When I finished year six my parents put me into ST Edmond College.I stayed there only half way in year seven because I didn’t enjoy school.  Unfortunately I didn’t get along with my parents and they said we are going to take on the farming course in Greenfell.

The farm 
When I got there I was missing home all ready.I only stayed there for one month.  This course will take boys and girls to train them to become good farmers in the future which is good for them.The manager took me to Orange to find me accommodation for me.I met this really nice gentleman his name is Bill he had to talk to me for a while and got me in a refuge.This refuge was a nice place for me to stay for a while.I end up staying at the refuge for six months and had a good time there.  They had to talk to me and said I had to move onI ended up moving to Melbourne and living with a family.I was there for a while with them. 

Back in Canberra 
Two years later I ended up moving back to my hometown, which is Canberra.When I got back I decide to work for Tempo cleaning company.I started cleaning for them for three years and then I became a supervisor.A lot of my friend’s thought that was a good idea because the cleaners wouldn’t do their job. 

My Work  
I decided have a meeting with all the cleaners in the staff room and try and sort some problems out with them. After four hours everything was fixed up then and everyone was happy they all went back to work. At the end of the year I decide to chuck the job in and start again somewhere else.While I was working at Westfield I met a nice girl there. I decided to take her out for dinner and we had a great time together. Two weeks later we started going out together and we ended up travelling around Australia. 

Travelling
My partner and I started to pack up the car and said we will go and say Good-bye to all our friends.       At the end of the week we started our journey to Orange I was looking forward to our holiday my girlfriend said the same too.When we got there we stayed there for two days and moved on to the next town which was Cowra.  It was a small country town we kept on driving to the next place.We went up the top of Australia and down the bottom of the south coast region.  After we traveled everywhere we decide to stay at Shepparton for three months and started doing fruit picking on an apple farm we had a great time there.

My partner and I made a lot of friends they were all Koreans.  They were the type people you could hang out with because they had a good sense of humour and very polite to every one that was a good attitude.  In the mean time we started picking apples on the farm.  We were making a lot of money every week that was good for us because we needed to save up as much as possible so we can continue our journey down the coast. 

At the end of the fruit-picking season we had plenty of money so we left Shepparton and moved on to Bega and decide to settle down there.     My partner went for a job at the bakery shop.  She got a phone call from the manager and he said you can start work the next day.  I went for a cleaning job in Bega they gave me a call and said I can start work that night I have been with the company for the last three years and I am happy about.
