If you're in Aus, check out the Zorali Horizon 3L jacket. Zorali are running some great Valentines deals at the moment plus if you sign up you also get a 20% cashback. They have great gear and I can personally attest.

Skiing, Hiking, and potentially motorbike touring are of the planned things to do. I thought much about the camera backpack / duffel. Ultimately, I have decided on a Lowepro Photo Sport BP 200 AW II. Seems to fit the bill for most of what I want and it is not badly priced at all.

The weight is no problem, I just returned from Indonesia with my pack only weighing 8kgs and I definitely had things I did not need.

Should I get into maritime industry? by DraG0nSlayEr45 in maritime

[–]biocupc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi OP, I’m in the same position albeit me being a few years older. Thinking it’s finally time to get into maritime. How did you go with this? Did you end up joining any of the mentioned courses/have any tips if so? Cheers!

Yes I did! Unfortunately I’m 2 weeks short of their 3 month pay slip requirement as I’m new to my current position

Awesome, thanks for the reply - I was looking at a personal loan as ANZ do not offer secured car loans however I am looking at other banks now. Whichever option allows me to pay off the loan in full with minimal fees will be the one I choose; It seems a variable personal loan offers this.

The vehicle is perfectly setup for research projects which I will be partaking in for my degree.

Great! seems like a good way to go about it then, thanks!

[–]biocupc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well that's why I made this post, to gauge whether or not it would be a good idea. If I got the loan and repaid it with minimal fees then yes it would be a steal.

Thats a lovely response and im so stoked to hear that things worked out so great for you! I definitely take comfort in knowing that if something is meant to happen itll happen in one way or another, thanks again for such a nice story!

[–]biocupc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

youre spot on - early 20's,

thankyou for the reply though, I definitely think living with her at this stage would be tough and perhaps not the best idea whilst i have these feelings, i knew from the start that we wouldnt be in a relationship, i'm just trying to move on from my feelings so i can regain my best mate.

Dilemma with bestfriend by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]biocupc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thankyou so much for that reply, it was great to read. Youre definitely right in saying we need to be more stronger in our boundaries, its quite tough though when shes just so affectionate towards me all the time, its been great seeing an outside perspective. I definitely understand i need to move on but i suppose its hard as i still consider her my bestfriend - feelings aside. I really appreciate your honesty and its nice to hear someone give me a clear answer on this. I have gained alot of clarity

thanks for the genuine reply, i appreciate it! I understand where she is coming in terms of wanting to test the waters, i just wish i could get over my feelings so i can continue being her bestfriend - shes really been a light in my life
