Tuesday 16th June - I've been in Perth for a week now, and its the most isolated city in the world, but really quite cute and laid back. I'm staying in the suburb Northbridge which is 5 minutes from the CBD and supposed to be the trendiest part but also the most dodgy at night. I love the way they always stick hostels in the dodgiest parts of cities. What I've seen is no different from anywhere else, you have to keep your wits about you no matter where you are. T...

Friday 5th June - Sunday 7th June Got to Monkey Mia after 12 hours on bus. Its just a resort right on the beach front, beautiful weather and away from everything, bliss. Monkey Mia is famous for the dolphins. Since the 1960's 3 generations of dolphins come in each morning to be fed 3 times between 8am and 12pm, and they pick people out of the crowd to feed them. I was walking along the beach and one of them just came up and started to swim around everyone intera...

Well I was impressed beyond words. The visibility was amazing, and the coral was s...

Sunday 24th May - left Darwin on an 11 hour Greyhound bus journey. People really do underesitmate the vastness of Australia, for instance there is a cattle station in South Australia which is the size of Belgium and Holland put together and is run by 1 family! Now you would think that might be a bit of a b***** on the gardening upkeep, but hey, no big deal when you have cattle acting as lawnmowers for you - your sorted. One more gripe about the flies and I promis...

Tuesday 12th May - started my 9 day 'Cloud 9' tour with Adventure tours. Picked up from Alice Springs early morning and first stop was a camel farm where I got to ride a camel. It was quite terrifying as the camel rose from its knees, as its really tall and I felt like I was going to fall off face first. When we got going the guy said to let go and just move your hips with the camel, and it works, it was a really easy ride, then he said to hold on tight as he rac...
