Hello England!

Well it feels kinda nice to be back in the country of my origins! Its great to be with family as they have very kindly taken me under their wing! Besides spending lots of time looking for some short term work i have managed to get out and about and even get back to my roots!!! Below is a map of the Hampshire area, southern England which is where i come from. I am currently staying in Stubbington, Fareham but my immediate family is more from the Chandlers Ford area which is close to Eastleigh. London would be North East of Winchester - about an hour by train. Southampton is the biggest port in Northern Europe and this is where the Titanic left from on that fateful day. When we moved to South Africa we came by a ship named the Windsor Castle (http://www.oceanlinermuseum.co.uk/Windsor%20Castle.html) from Southampton, luckily we made it!
