Trouble in Sydney Lyall Russell

As a fresh journalist graduate from New Zealand, it was a given that I was excited to land my first job in Sydney, Australia. However, the move across the Tasman was not as easy as I initially thought. This story is about the challenges I faced as I tried to settle in a new city. From being trapped in an Asian beauty salon, to living with a promiscuous old man who I regularly chauffeured around in a vintage Rolls Royce, there was never a dull moment in the land Down Under.
