Hi everyone. In brisbane now- and too poor to do anything, its really expensive the further down the coast you go! I fly to Sydney in 3 days and then im SUPPOSED to be going to Singapore but im NOT!! Im going to Thailand for a month. I join a tour in Bangkok for two weeks, making our way down to Pucket (think thats how you spell it). But im also going it alone for two weeks. I really want to learn to dive and apparently its really cheap to do the 4 days cours...

So, I found myself in Hervey Bay (the gateway to fraser island) and I had done it again. My bus arrived at 6.50am and my tour started at 7am.

There were about 25 on board, with two diving instructors, a cook and a skipper! We lived on board in little bunk beds which were surprisingly comfortable. The food was fantastic. It consisted of: nachos, sausages, three different types of salads, biscuits etc- really goo...

Well, this is a current entry. Arrived here last night after a 10 hour bus journey from Cairns. Im in Airlie Beach- the gateway to sailing on the Whitsundays. The Whitsundays are a collection of islands on the great barrier reef. Tomorrow I get on a boat called 'Wings' and sail on it for 2 nights and three days. All meals are included and they sound great. Many of you may be wondering 'but dont you get sea sick?' Well, Yes!! But apparently this b...
