Leaving Huntingdale we set off on the open road to our first stop, Fremantle. Fremantle is a lovely little harbour town that is full of some quaint little shops, a history with the famous Fremantle prison, and a seafront lined with award winning fish and chip shops. Walking around the town for a few hours we then headed straight to the fish and chip shop to try there signiture food for lunch. New Zealand Hake and chips for $15 a portion we was expecting great th...

We arrived after a comfortable 7 hour flight to Perth airport and as the taxi was cheaper than the bus, we headed straight to the Planet inn hostel. Checking in we instantly had a flashback of the Rio Nature slum. A 24 bed stinky dorm filled full of sweaty people and not an ounce of space to put anything as it was so untidy. Knowing that we couldn't possible relax here we head...
