Dear Perth
As I sit here in the small country town that we’ve moved half way across the country too, I wanted to say goodbye and let you know the things that I’ll miss most about you:
I’ll miss your bright blue skies and warm weather, particularly during the summertime. There is something so special about wandering around King’s Park on a hot, summer’s night watching the city lights below.
I’ll miss your beautiful, fiery red sunsets. I’ve travelled to many different cities far and wide, and no where else have I come across such vivid splashes of colour across the sky.
I’ll miss your laid back vibe and friendly atmosphere. I was never a big fan of big cities and Perth is a wonderful combination of big and small city life.
I’ll miss your delicious food and plethora of amazing cafe’s and bars that have popped up over the last few years. There is so much development happening in the city and southern suburbs, so I’m sad that I’ll be moving away at a time when things have really started happening!
I’ll miss your amazing beaches and enjoying fish and chips by the water.ย I think that Waterford Fish and Chipsย does the best fish and chips but nothing beats enjoying that seafood goodness with the smell of salt water in the air.
But most of all, I’ll miss the place I’ve called home for the last 30 odd years. I’ve grown up here, made some fantastic friendships, met the love of my life, and made some very special memories. I’m not sure what the future ahead will hold or whether we’ll be back. For now, I just wanted to say thank you for the many years that I’ve lived here and goodbye for now.
