we have work as packers in a seafood packhouse! rather surprisingly, the fishy smell isnt so bad, cause they are all freshly caught. don't think we can get any photos posted on FB because our hands are wet and frozen numb!
it's an even simpler job than kiwi picking, and less demanding physically. press a button, load comes in, stuff everything into the box, close it and send it off to the conveyor. repeat.
yj was totally excited the whole day, despite the 5am start. but too bad, we have no work tomorrow, so i hope we can continue being employed.
we have also moved to a new place! no longer a hostel, but a homestay (our first!). the home of an indian-thai couple. we have to pay rent for two weeks, and we have internet! yay! the big plus is that it is so much cheaper, but the room is really cold cold cold!
after baking and rotting last week, it seems that this week is gonna be a better week =)
