Well I quit my job about 4 weeks ago....great feeling!! So off I went traveling!!! I flew to Brisbane which is a lovely city, but still a city, and too be fair they mainly look the same whatever country you are in. Spent four days in a Caravan in Brisbane...def an experience. There is a 'fake' beach in Brisbane at south bank pretty random, sand and water in the middle of the city...but plenty of hot guy!! :)
From Brisbane I jumped on a bus to Noosa which is stunning! Some beautiful views but so very very hot. There was a bush fire while i was there which was a bit scary. Stayed there for 5 days, hired a car and went exploring.
From Noosa I went on the bus back to Brisbane then train to Robina Coast. I'm currently on the Gold Coast at Burliegh Heads. Now this is stunning!! I think even better than Noosa but thats just opinion. I went to Byron Bay yesterday and its pretty cool, plenty of hippies around! I also visited the most eastern point in Australia.
Today I have been on a right trek up in the country side...I went through some places which were like rain forest and the noises from the wildlife were just amazing. I saw water falls and went to the best look out point in Australia. You stand in Queensland and can see right into New South Wales. It was stunning.
I've had a great time traveling around soooo pleased I have grasped this experience. Be back in the 'sunny' UK soon though as money starting to run out :( Catching the bus from here to Sydney on Friday which takes just over 16 hours!!!!! oh the joy of backpacking and being on a tight budget. Traveling overnight so saved on the cost of a nights accomodation!! hehe!! Then back to Canberra on Sunday. Then we'll see where from there! :)
