Hey!

Even though you are hoping for a fellow Aussie to go with you, how about settling for someone a little less cool? A New Zealander maybe?

Just got placed at camp duncan the other day and will be heading out from Auckland just after my 20th. Must be weird getting a reply on a post you put up nearly a month ago.

i have the same start date. i e-mailed rona and asked when it was best to get there, she said most people usually arrived a day early (so on the 26th) i'm actually flying out on the 12th may as i'm having a little holiday with my family first, but i will be catching a flight from miami to o'hare airport at some point, and then i think we have to catch a train to the closet town (to camp) and they pick you up from there.

i've been stressing out about how to actually get the to the camp, so i've e-mailed her a few times and this is the info i've gathered up! haha

Yeh I'm thinking I should email her as well. What did you say when you emailed her?

Family holiday sounds good. Are you planning on travelling after?

Where you placed at a Recruitment Fair?
