Day 1 of my 3 day 'survivor' stylie stay on The worlds largest sand island!!! Exploring the lakes and forests of Fraser whilst trying not to get eaten by the wild dingos will be my main aim here! Fraser island is an ecological wonderland created by drifting sand, where wild dogs roam free and lush rainforest grows on sand! It's a primal island utopia, home to a profusion of wildlife including the purest strain of dingo in Australia. I will be exploring the islan...

Got chatting to the aboriginal chef last night who told me he'd paint me something on my backpack if I met him this morning and I now have some little indigenous people dancing about on it! I then went to do some sightseeing at the Carlo sandblow, named by captain cook after one of his crew in 1770!

Erdal, a Turkish guy from sweeden is currently sat ...

The sand feels like flour and the turquoise water is scattered with fish, sting rays and small reef sharks! Our group has bonded really well and im kinda glad i didnt pick a boat which resembles an 18/30s booze cruise in ibiza, although I'm sure that would be more suitable for the two brum...

Staying at base tonight and have a 4 bed room, sharing with a crazy Swiss girl and a scottsman! Didn't have a pillow when I arrived but a guy next door from reading kindly donated me his as he was off out drinking and said he wouldn't notice!!! Met Anita this morning on the way to the ferry, she's from hong kong and has been studying a masters in linguistics! We snorkelled in the morning and I saw lots of beautiful, big, colourful parrot fish and small convict f...
