Hi Everyone
For those I have already been talking to pls keep in touch, I can't believe it is here, this has been a dream of mine to go to Australia and I leave in 3 days. Once again I am from Canada and I am going to Brisbane and then who knows hopefully make enough money to go to NZ and well I think there will be a bunch of us meeting up for sure.
For those who don't know Surfer's Paradise is where one of my best mates is from and it is much younger and more relaxed than Sydney though I do want to travel there as well, I found a great hostel in Brisbane down town and not expensive so.....
let's all keep in touch and safe travels y'all I have a 30 hour flight ahead of me 
see some of you soon,
Jen
