Lonely Traveller

Hey all guys and girls.

I want to see Australia, and I'm looking for someone to come with me on this huge, adventurous road trip I'm planning.

I want to get a real in depth experience of the entire coastline of Oz, and so I envisage that myself and a like-minded person will go and live in various places around australia for a "working holiday". The whole thing will take between 6 to 12 months.

So are you the kind of person who is as curious and excited to see all of Australia as I am? Or do you know someone like this? Please read on!

I'm looking for someone who is

1. Around my age (18 to 24).

2. Is easy going

3. Wants to see Australia!!!

4. Is willing to sleep in a shared dorm hostels at various locations

5. Can fend for themselves (doesnt rely on anybody else to look after them)

Before I go Ill have a list of "must do" things in each of the places we'll be visiting/temporarily living in. This could be stuff like sight seeing, para-sailing, sky-diving, clubbing, wine-tasting at a winery (theres a lot of them in SA) - whatever takes our fancy!

I plan on living in or visiting each of the capital cities (sydney, melbourne, adelaide, perth, darwin, brisbane in that order). Its gonna be ace! And of course we'll have plenty of time to do unplanned stuff as well :-)

I cant possibly save enough money before-hand to last for 6 months or more, so I plan on getting temporary or casual work in any place where we'll be staying for more than a week. If you're considering taking up this opportunity, then you too should expect to try to get work - we'll need the money for all of the exciting new things that we'll do around Australia.

I see that fruit picking is a popular and easy to get type of job for people who are travelling, so thats one option for myself and whoever is coming with me. I can also pretty easily get casual work in any of the fields that I have previously worked in, but we'll leave those details to later on.

I plan on leaving for this trip somewhere between August - September 2009, and expect to finished by May - July 2010.

So have you ever wanted to see all of Australia and experience it in much more depth than a two week holiday would allow? Do you fit the description I put above? Then get in touch with me so we can meet, talk and chat about it and get the ball rolling! Just leave a comment to say ur interested! I can be contacted via msn, mobile phone or email. Contact me with ur details and we'll take it from there :-)

Hope to see Australia with you!

Hi there,

I'm 21, female, from Scotland. Just came across your post there! I'm in Melbourne at the moment staying with a friend but hoping to move on soon, the only thing is i'll be travelling alone and so was looking for a travel buddy!
Everything you're wanting sounds like what I'd be interested in but I do have arrangements to be meeting family at some points. However, I thought, if okay, that I could join you for some adventures!
I'm really wanting to go up North as I've only been to Melbourne and Sydney so far so if you are doing that in the near future, it'd be great to hear from you.

Thanks,
Lina

Hello Lina, Paul and Dan,

I hope all your travels are going well. I am a 23 year old Aussie from Sydney. I am in Perth at the moment and want to head north to exmouth to explore karrajini national park and ningaloo reef- both supposed to be spectacular. Ideally i envisage camping or campervanning. I'd be hoping to leave early november and have until mid december. Where are you guys at the moment and does that appeal?

Cheers,

India.
