Hello everyone, Brett and I have spent the last week travelling round the Yasawa Islands of Fiji, a total recluse with barely any connections to the outside world. We spent the first night on the mainland in Nadi, in the most surreal hostel we'd ever seen. At 4 pounds a night we werent expecting much but we turned up to basically a plot of land with a shack on it, with only one room there and only 3 guests. Thankfully we only stayed a night there and the next ...

Hello everyone, So our time in New Zealand is up, and its fair to say we've had a fantastic time here. Since last time we have travelled the south island which was an amazing experience. We left Wellington for Nelson, the first stop on the South Island where we would also meet up with a few of the guys that left wellington before us.

So...the first installment of the last couple of weeks begins with a backt...

Hello everyone, Welcome to the first entry from Queensland. We have just crossed over the border from New South Wales and have just arrived in Brisbane. Surfers Paradise was a strange place, especially as we'd travelled up from the tranquility of Byron Bay. With all the high rise buildings and Orlando based theme parks, it definately has a Florida feel to it, not really in keeping with the rest of the Gold Coast. However, it does have 40km of beaches so me and ...
