Australia Warnings and Dangers: 228 reviews and 203 photos

I arrive in Melbourne the middle of winter. A friend says to me that she has a friend that would take me in for a few weeks and this would save on over expenses. This seemed ideal to me so i left the TiPi and embarked on an adventure to Melbourne.
I hitchhiked the whole way down the coast, stayed by the ocean, swam and took my time getting there. Afterall its not the destination rather the journey.
After a week and a half i arrive in Melbourne looking for a friends place. I called ahead to make sure it was okay still that i stayed. I
I arrive Tenai's place and she is quite welcoming. She speaks very little english and has the most beautiful Philapino baby with her.

I was taken to a small room. The place i was staying was huge! It backed onto a park and the room was mostly glass but the central heating made everything warm and cosy.

Tenai asked a fair bit if i could mind her baby while she went out. I noticed that men would pick her up and i assumed she was on the dating game. Then the phones were running wild. I'm not joking, there was not a moments peace. I would be taking memos left right and centre- all male. Nothing twigged.
She would come home and tell me of the great dates she had been on.

Then numerous women would come by with male partners and would disappear for some time. I would make tea and look after the baby

One night i got another call late and there was a woman screaming dwon the phone that i had been having an affair with her husband as 'my' number had appeared 100 times on her phone bill.

I went outside my head spinning and saw numerous pairs of male and female shoes near the door. 'Oh god!'

I called my friend and said 'What the hell is goig on here? . I told her the stories and my friend was mortified. I had been staying in a Brothel the whole time and kept wondering why my makeup had disappeared and some of my clothes off the line, and the phone calls, and the numerous men and why Tenai was out all the time with different men. How stupid i was! And how hilarious the situation!!

Phone: Well im not giving that numer
