Hey Everyone, I'm Charlotte 21 from Hull..
Totally new to this but thought id give it a shot to see if i can find someone crazy enough to let me tag along on their travels, or tag along with me 
I have absolutely no idea what my plans are yet, just know ill be heading to sydney in the first week of November.. Then travel up the east coast..
Havent booked any flights or anything yet but ive got my visa sorted.
Is there anyone travelling to sydney around the same time who would like to meet up and travel together as its pretty daunting not knowing a soul out there ha.
If anyones interested in having a chat or meeting up let me know, soooo excited!!!
Love charl xxx
My profile pic isnt serious btw, i am totally normal.. honestly

Hey Charl,
A few of us solo travellers are in Sydney over Christmas and New Year. Hopefully going to meet up for xmas day party on Bondi beach. If you're thinking of being around at that time let me know and I'll add you as a friend on here and we can keep in touch to organise nearer the time

Hey, I should be heading out to aus in november too, should hopefully be booking everything in the next week or so
My plan's same as yours really, start out in Sydney (will probably do the ozintro week) then head up the east coast, would be sweet to have other people included!
How much you reckon you're taking out there after flights and everything?

Hi Dale,
How long you thinking of staying in Sydney for?
If you are looking to get a years WHV then you need roughly 5000AUD for the visa. Are you looking to do that or just a holiday visa?

P.S I'm from Southampton, so not far from you.

Hey, yeah I'm getting a WHV, so I'm aiming to have the 5000AUD minimum, I'm trying my best to get just over 3600GPB so hopefully I do! haha
Ah nice! Well I want to be in Sydney for Christmas/New Years, but not sure if my budget would stretch enough to stay there for so long cos it's so expensive, how about you?

Hey, ah awesome, yeah I said above, but I'm hoping to get around £3500/£3600, saving and working as much as possible atm
Yeah you meet loads of other people on the same tour type thing, it's only for a week, and you do day trips out and night trips out like pub crawls and go sightseeing and stuff, and they set up banks and everything for you (which is piss easy anyway enough to myself but still) haha
Yeah, definitely will do
