Settling in process continues

Over the last few months we've been finding it really hard at times settling in to Aust, learning and re learning things, getting to know new people while we're feeling like we're not really ourselves.

We are sharing a kitchen/ living space/front door with 2 other couples, so its been interesting to have to get to know them and remember all the things about how to use an Aussie kitchen. Huge oven, microwave, hot water tap, carpet, different cleaning methods/habits- so many 'new' things!

And we are both in new roles which continues to be a steep learning curve. Feeling like we need more rest, time at home, but home isn't really home yet.

Soeun's health hasn't been good the whole time he has been here, first a cold, then he was ok for about 1.5 weeks, then he was really dizzy and tired for another 1.5 weeks. He feel ok at the moment but has missed a few weeks of study time. Also he has been to the doctor a few times and still waiting for more test results.
