I'm aware it's the beginning of spring and other places mainland might be a little bit chilly, but as it seems to be a subtropical locations, I was wondering whether it is worth to stay more or less depending on the temperatures and possibility (or not) to swim and so.

      Hi all. Ive posted before regarding a place to stay and i came across this apartment. I kinda like it already, but before i actually book it, is this place convenient enough? Is public transport access close enough? Cafe? All within walking distance maybe? I am travelling with my mom, hence I would prefer everything within walking distance. I am aware that to visit 'things-do-to' places, we may need to travel by bus, but what i wanted to know is if we were to take the morning off or the day off from travelling by transport, going down to this street, will there be a handful to see and do? Or should I make a booking at "Breakfree Peninsula Apartment"? Thank you all!

My partner is of Fijian decent and after all the wedding formalities escapement is what we're looking for. Ideally I'd like an all inclusive package. A nice beach, good food and some peace and quiet is all I'm looking for. We're getting married on the north coast of the main island and we have about a week to spend on our honeymoon. We could split it between two location but ideally I just want to do nothing. We don't have a huge budget but as long as I find something that is good value I will be happy.

    • I NEED SOME ADVICE ON TRAVELLING/WORKING IN AUSTRALIA

      Australia Jun 12, 2013 at 8:56 AM

      I am a 21yr old female from the uk, I want to come to australia on a working visa for a year, i want to travel for a few weeks, then settle and find a job fruit picking or what ever i am not fussy, but there's a few things i would really appreciate some advice on as I dont know anyone who has travelled before -

      1. Would £2,500 GBP be enough money to enter the country on a working visa?

      2. I am looking to travel for maybe a few weeks untill my money starts running out, then I am planning on finding a job, where would the best place to do this be? I would like to go somewhere lively on the coast, but when the time comes, a job is easy to find?

      I have my flight and visa money saved, I just dont want to book it untill I am sure £2,500 will be enough to last a few weeks and where I need to book my flight to!

      All answers would be really appreciated as I have no idea where to start!

      First time going to Australia (2013) and need advice on Planning

      Australia Jun 10, 2013 at 4:51 AM

      Me and my wife are travelling to Australia for the first time this year(2013).
      The travel dates are going to be from 8th to 31st of August. This gives us approximately 3 weeks of time in the continent. That's about 23 days including all the traveling.

      Right now we are THINKING of covering : Adelaide - Alice Springs - Carins - Gold Coast - Sydney - Melbourne and back.

      One concern is that how to we plan the itinerary, as it all depends on where we land and start the journey.
      For Example, if we land in Adelaide, then the route that we might follow is Adelaide (1 night) -> Alice springs (2 nights) -> Carins (3 nights) -> Gold Coast (5 nights) -> Sydney (4 nights) and Melbourne (4 nights) leaving me about 3 more nights. I am guessing in this whole route I have not counted the time that will be required to travel between these places. Or should I land in Brisbane or Melbourne and plan the route accordingly.
      I mentioned Brisbane because thats where Gold coast is and a lot of activities to cover. So I am not sure if we should keep it in the starting of our trip or during the middle.

      Or should I just skip Adelaide & Alice springs and give more time to the other cities mentioned.

      I would also like to know what are the "must do" things that need to be done in each city. For example, I am not sure what exactly there would be in adelaide This can probably be used as a rest day after 24 hours of travel. In Alice Spring there is the Ayers Rock, but that's about it (Hence, is Adelaide and Alice Springs really worth the extra cash that we might be spending, as I know its quite expensive to reach the Ayers Rock)

      In Carins, we plan to do the coral reef (not sure which cruise / boat is the best in providing a tour of the reef, and scuba diving as such).

      Coming to Brisbane , there is as such nothing to do there, so we would be heading directly to Gold Coast. In Gold coast, I suppose there are lots of attractions, namely : Dream world, Sea World, Movie world ,(not sure if i will do Wet n Wild). Then the speed jet boat ride. Apart from that if there is anything that needs to be done , do let us know.

      From Gold Coast, its off to Sydney, where I am not sure what all things to do, as there is just too much to cover. And finally ending it all in Melbourne, even here I am not sure which all places to visit.

      This is more or less the thought process that we are in now, and a lot of confusion as to even take this trip or not. As we would be traveling all the way from Bahrain and spending a lot of money. It'll probably be once in a life trip for us, as it would be tough to come back again, unless a job opportunity calls in.

      I would appreciate anyone who could guide us in the right direction and help us out through your experiences.

      Thanks

    • Sydney for the weekend (from London)

      Australia Jun 1, 2013 at 7:59 AM

      I wanted to check if I was completely crazy. I've never been to Australia before but have the opportunity to go the Lions third test in Sydney. The issue is (because of work/other commitments) I can only realistically go for the weekend. I would fly out on Thursday from London and arrive in Sydney on the Saturday (early morning), go to the game on Saturday evening, leave late on Sunday and arrive back in London on Monday. I would effectively spend more time in the air than on the ground in Australia. It would be in business class, which will help somewhat, but I am concerned that I would simply find the jet-lag, etc too much - I have never flown that distance before. (I am a late-40s male, good health, used to flying to Asia/West-coast US). Opinions welcome.

      MY TRAVELING PARTNER CAN NOT ACCOMPANY ME FOR 5-6 WEEKS IN EASTERN AUSTRALIA AND A CRUISE AROUND NEW ZEALAND LEAVIING AUKLAND. SHARING COSTS IS CRUCIAL. I HAVE ROUND TRIP FROM PENSACOLA TO SYDNEY 9/1/13 PLUS ROUND TRIP TO AND FROM AUKLAND 10/1-15/13. WOULD LIKE TO DO A CRUISE AROUND NEW ZEALAND AND SPLITTING COST OF THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT. DATES MIGHT BE FLEXIBLE, BUT NOT FOR LONG. I AM AN ALMOST 70 YEAR OLD NON SMOKING FEMALE WHO LOVES TO TRAVEL. LAST SOJOURN WAS ALMOST 3 WEEKS IN SOUTHERN CHINA AND JAPAN. TOKYO WAS MIND BOGGLING. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED GUILIN. I HAVE REFERENCES, REFERENCES FROM "PROFESSIONAL HONEST AND JUST "GOOD" PEOPLE I TRUST WITH A KEY TO MY HOME AND OTHER THINGS. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS? TRAVELING ALONE IS KINDA LONELY.
