Hello The postcard is a picture of our guide on my 3 day Kakadu and Litchfield National Parks safari type trip. It really did feel like we were a long way from anything. We had to wrestle snakes and crocodiles, outwit killer spiders, kill poisonous toads with our bare hands and spear fish that nibbled on our feet. Not to mention having to catch our own dinner, survive on berrys, leaves and nuts foraged from the forrest. We had to start fires with flint to co...

G'day I am currently in Cairns but flying over to Darwin this afternoon for my last stop in Australia. I fly to Singapore on the 6th March.

We were on a...

The only thing is I'm moving to fast, but at least I'm seeing loads. First I went to Byron Bay on an overnight bus from Sydney. Byron Bay is a great backpacking place and has a lovely beach. Unfortunately it's jelly fish season so it's probably not going to be safe to swim in the s...

Hello It seems like a long time since I've written one of these. In fact it seems a long time since I was in Melbourne and Sydney, but I've finally got a bit of time out of my hectic schedule to write something. So I'll try to remember what I did back in Sydney and Melbourne. Needless to say as they are big cities, I loved them, and needless to say, as it was me there, I had a good time. Apart from when I was in a hostel in Sydney (in Woolloomooloo, what a r...
