The Wide Brown Land For Me
Now I know what I am going to do in the six months after I've finished my course! What a great opportunity it would be to travel around Australia before going overseas! There is so much of our land that I haven't seen: Queensland, Uluru, the Great Ocean Road, Adelaide, Perth... the list goes on and on. So what I'm going to do (and I will do it), is find a friend who wants to come with me, and do a massive 2-3 month road trip! I'll stay in el cheapo accommodation, take my cheap-to-run little laser, and blog about it every single day. The photos are going to be awesome. I can't wait! What a thing to look forward to, and to motivate me to study hard! All I need to do now is to find someone to go with me... and start planning!
P.S. It's rather funny to look at myself getting excited like this. Most people don't get itchy feet until they're fifty, where as I'm doing everything backwards, it seems...

Now that sounds like a plan!
I can certainly recommend checking out our nation in person - there's so much of it, but its soooo beautiful too!
I've been blessed to have been to every state & territory in Aust - we did Vic, SA, NT, Qld, NSW, ACT, and Vic in 3 months (in that order) in 1993 - it was great! Ayers Rock, & the outback are really something!
WA is very nice too. Perth is a beautiful city, quite clean & well organised.
And of course, Tassie! A quaint & enjoyable place it is!
Do you know what's sad? I've seen more of Victoria than South Aus. :P I guess that's what happens when you live in a state that has nothing really worth looking at but Adelaide.
Been to Queensland. Stopped over in the airport at Sydney. Haven't been to NT, WA, TAS or ACT!
i've only seen like queensland, nsw and vic. and not much of any of them... :(
rather sad really in our beautiful country with so much to see and do.
There's not a lot to see in NSW unless you go along the coast or near the Great Dividing Range. Seriously, it all looks the same when you drive across it to reach QLD: flat, brown, dusty, hot, straight, no people. The towns look like any other towns, except they have Woolworths :P I'm guessing it's much the same on the way to Central Australia? The way to South Australia at least has a few winds ;-)
