My dad taught at the University of Melbourne. I visited Sydney another time. Then we went up to Cairns, then down the Great Ocean Road. I have friends from Perth, where I've never been, so I'd love to do that.

Any person in a relationship has to see what they gain from those things and if it's worth what you have to sacrifice to be in a relationship. I don't think that's a terrible thing.
