From the sleepy town of 1770 on the East Coast of Australia is a thrilling adventure to be had. 1770 is slow and I was feeling rather upbeat and wanted to do something a bit crazy. The tour driver was going through a list of things to do when the words “zero gravity” made my ears prick up.

This photo was taken in Nimbin, Australia. I like the message, particularly effective on broken glass.
Neighbours Tour & Neighbours Trivia Night Review: Bunyip Tours
On March - 5 - 2010
Cheddar, Mozzarella, Edam and the Neighbours Tour. Yes all types of cheese! It’s loveable, fun and let’s be honest; it’s Neighbours!
Although the Neighbours Night and Neighbours Tour are two separate events, I would suggest you do both for the full Neighbours experience.
Let’s start from the top shall we…
Fraser Island
On March - 3 - 2010
In the last six months I have seen and done many things. Fraser Island ranks incredibly high on my list of favourites. It doesn’t matter that I ate my own body weight in sand or lost my flip flops (why did you have to leave me?), Fraser Island is incredible!

Flight to Melbourne, $280. Neighbours Tour, $50. Balancing on my head holding the Ramsay St sign between my feet outside the Kennedy’s household, Priceless!
Australia Zoo – Crikey!
On February - 19 - 2010
Is it wrong that as I am sat in the Crocoseum watching the Crocodile feeding, I wonder if the reptile will get the better of Terri Irwin? Probably, but hey it would make for an interesting show!

My Moment of Shame
On January - 24 - 2010
I’m on the edge. My heart beats harshly against my chest as adrenaline surges through my body. Not even my pride can stop me from admitting that I am petrified. Fear grips me and I am immobilised. Unable to do anything. What the hell am I doing?
Australia’s answer to Amsterdam
On January - 17 - 2010
After a huge hippy festival in 1973, Nimbin earned itself a place on Australia’s map. With a population of 352 and an unemployment rate of 18 percent this sleepy former dairy town relies heavily on tourism.
Want a cool place to live? Byron Bay has the answer.
On January - 13 - 2010
Byron Bay is just pretty damn awesome! It has to be one of the best places on the East Cost. I think the highlights have to the beach and strangely the artistic use of graffiti to cover up ugly (what I assume to be) power boxes.
Do you want to learn how to surf?
On January - 9 - 2010
Right on dude!
Having been surfing before I should be pretty good at it by now, right? Wrong.
Spot X is the name, surfing is the game. Mojo Surf (also based in Byron Bay and Sydney) run an awesome surf camp out of Arrawarra beach.
They guarantee you that you will be able to stand up by the end of the lesson. I wasn’t worried though, I had done this before. Should be a piece of cake!
Happ New Year!

Happy New Year!
I can’t say I have ever had an amazing New Years Eve. I mean there have been some that have been fun but nothing that has lived up to the hype. This year was certainly different.
Christmas on Bondi Beach
On December - 29 - 2009
It’s the Christmas we all dream of; leisurely sitting on Bondi beach with a Santa hat and a BBQ. I did chuckle to myself knowing that back home the weather would be drab and cold. I couldn’t wait for Christmas Day!
