World Travels 2007

Arrived into Melbourne today by train. After the tram journey to St Kilda, we tried to locate the backpackers. Walking around and getting more and more pissed off for not knowing where we are, we finally found the place and booked in. Entering our r...

Australia/Malaysia 2000

Friday 4 August 2000 Back on the road again. New bus driver - Young Joe Young. This fella was off his rocker! The "put your seatbelts on" signal consisted of 2 rings of a bicycle bell followed quickly by "SHIT! PUT YOUR SEATBELTS ON!!...

 

Wish you were here?

Hi, After we left you on Monday afternoon we took a walk from our hotel down to the Tulum ruins on the beach. We didn't have the place to ourselves like at Chichen Itza unfortunately but most of the tour buses had departed. The ruins are of a Mayan...

La capital Vietnamita nos recibio con los primeros 26 del viaje, casi senti que tenia frio. Nuevamente, taxi, 100cc, 2 ruedas, 2 personas y mi gran mochila. Recorrimos, diferentes hoteles, nada que valiera los 10 dolares por 2 personas que suelen c...

 

Grand ol' world tour

The Navimag cargo ferry, our home for five nights and the best fun you can have on a ship loaded with cargo trucks, cows and sea-sick passengers. Travelling on the first trip of the high season meant that the boat was only a third full. Which was exc...

 

ROUND THE WORLD

Spent only 2 days in Arequipa, leaving us too little time to visit the nearby Colca canyon. Instead we rested and visited the charming Santa Catalina monastery....

 

Answering the question: Do dingoes really steal babies?

So I didn't miss my flight...but actually I almost did. The first leg of the journey was to fly from SeaTac into LAX. If you fly on frequent flyer miles, you are one step above livestock. They won't give you a confirmed seat, even though I booked th...

 

Travelling 2006

We had a couple of nights in Rotorua, which is a beautiful place, but it smells so bad!!! It's like rotten eggs, apparently it's sulpher. The first night in Rotorua, we didn't do much, we just chilled out in the geothermally heated pool, which was s...

 

Australia (and a bit of Asia and Indonesia too) Summer 2006

After being met at the airport by someone from our hostel, we checked in, admired the room and then went into town for a wander around. It was notably warmer in Alice than in Sydney, however, town it would seem is more like a village. After an hour we ...

 

Australia

We spent a long time in Perth 6 mths, when first arriving we stayed at a backpackers, things were very different from the luxury we had in Asia i.e. nice room, good cheap food and hot weather. Perth was cold (the end of winter)the backpackers was no...

 

Trip of a lifetime

Shopping. A woman's downfall and yet the source of such entertainment and happiness! Julie has said throughout this trip that she was saving all of her shopping until South-East Asia because it's sooo much cheaper here. And she has pretty much kept h...

 

Australasia and South East Asia... a continuation on a toilet theme

Homogenity very much defines shopping in Thailand, and the floating market outside Bangkok was no exception. Repetitive photo album designs, countless fake Rolex's and wood-rounded candlestick holders abound, I must've seen them all in at least 50 di...

 

~m~ & Jon in Australia

Amazingly, one week of our holiday is already over. It has gone very fast, and also seemed like much longer, in that strange way that holidays do. We've done so much, and it's all been fabulous. For the last 3 days we've been on a tour of the Red Ce...

 

Sand, Sea and Snakes....

Well, I left Sydney what feels like weeks ago, but was actually only around 10 days or so ago...!!! Left on a very unomfortable overnight bus up to Byron Bay. After having had very little sleep, managed to drag myself off to the beach, which was beau...

 

Australia

We headed to Caloundra to meet up with Haydn. After several attempts at trying to meet up with him we finally found him in the local phonebook! He couldn't escape that easily. We spent 2 lovely days with him, Michelle and his family. We went jet sk...

AUSTRALIA

I loved my time in Australia. It is a country with heaps of natural beauty and, more impressive to me, some of the most interesting animals on earth. I found Australian culture to be a mix of British and American culture with a unique dialect and vocab...
