Hey, Have arrived in Perth now after a great few days at Uluru (Ayers Rock). We are staying at my aunt Colette's and it is absolute luxury to be staying in a house after 4 months of hostels! We are enjoying not having 10 strangers in our bedroom for once. Colette made us a roast dinner to welcome us yesterday which was so amazing after so long without a home cooked meal! Uluru was great. We stayed in Yulara which is the Ayers Rock resort. It is really s...

We were a bit worried that we had enlisted ourselves on some sort of 18-30s drink fest bu...

Hi, We are now back from our 3 day adventure on Fraser Island and it was great fun. We were a bit worried when we arrived in Hervey Bay and had our pre-trip briefing as there seemed to be about a million things to remember and the references to Dingoes was not filling me with confidence! However when i met our group i was feeling happier as they all seemed really nice. There were 11 of us in our group and it was comprised of 2 Italian girls, 2 Dutch girls, ...
