Discovery in Everyday Life

I found something new every day, everywhere.  The first thing which surprised me was the bus.  There is no announcement on the bus, so I got so worried when I caught a bus to home for the first time. Even now, I have to look out through the window of the bus when I go to the places where I've never been.  The road is also surprising for me.  Compared with the road in Japan, that in Australia has less crossings.  It is inconvenient.  I sometimes see the people getting across the road without crossing, which is terrible.

The most surprising and unpleasant thing is the price of everything, especially food.  Eating at canteen or restaurant, I can't avoid spending a lot of money.  Therefore, I've made my lunch by myself to save money.  I love sandwiches with these.

I could make discoveries also in my house.  They are two more members of my host family.  My host mother is feeding them in backyard.  She calls them girls, so they are female. They 

sometimes run away from the yard and get into our house, so they bother her.

 

He is a neighbor living in a forest at the back of my house.  He is a wild peacock.  While I was having my breakfast, he came and peaked the window.  My host mother said to me that he comes home about once a week to receive breakfast from her.  I was very surprised, but now am also looking forward to seeing him when he gets more beautiful feathers in spring.
