Hello everyone! I hope you are still doing alright, I am doing not too bad myself, you know. So I have finally managed to leave Western Australia, after nearly a month there! No more hick ups and everything went according to plan after my trip to Exmouth. As you probably have seen, I have even managed to upload the photos!!!! Anyway, on Tuesday, I was scheduled to take a flight to Ayers Rock at 1:20pm so the YHA advised me that there was an airport shuttle at 1...

The hostel I stayed in was Busselton Backpackers and Sam (the owner) made everyone welcome. Well, I was the only person arriving that day! The...

Hello everyone! After a real blunder in Perth (I didn't book Sunday night at the Youth hostel and was kicked out on Sunday morning), I was again homeless. This time, my luck wasn't so forthcoming and I had to call upon an offer from Tony (I worked with Tony at Whitecity) that he had made earlier that week that if I ever was in trouble, I should just give him a call.
