Hey guys just chilling out in theYHA in Canberra, which seemsto be the most unpopular place in Australia within most Aussies. We've just come from Melbourne, a much more popular city! It does indeed have the fantastic honour of being our longest stay out of anywhere on our travels so far and we'd like to take the chance now to thank Ned for accommodating us as well as showing us the ways of Melbourne. He firstly took us out of Melbourne for a bit of a surf but un...

Hey Just sitting in a net cafe in Brisbane thought I'd tell you all about Noosa. Im currently sitting here for the first time when Josh and I havent been together. He's left for Sydney so he can catch a flight to New Zealand in 2 days time, its going to be a bit weird but it'll be all cool. So Noosa, a lot of families, nice family resort area, bit of a rich and famous place with nice houses on the beachfront, lots of fine restaurants and top of the...
