one trip, a few words and I'm ready to discover what's in store for my life... My name is Karina and I am making the BIG life changing move overseas to the UK. It’s time for me to make the move and discover what could be awaiting me.

The race that stops the nation

(source: urbanrestuarant.com)




The first Tuesday in November brings out the race of all races - the Melbourne Cup. Each year the ladies dress in their finest while the men gamble away all their money, but you see this is an Australian institution.


It feels almost unpatriotic not being able to join in the festivities but when the race is on at 4am London time, I know I would rather be sleeping, then watching a 15 minute race that I never win on.
