Well my loyal followers, my biggest apologise for not gettin these shots up earlier but Whistler is an expensive place and my time is a little limited. Most of my spare time is taken up with snow boarding, sleeping or going to the local bars with my new crew of mates. There a little bit crazy but i fit right in and they are more than accepting of my bizarre way of life. I live in Staff housing which is a bit like halls or residence and i share my flat with two girls, Vanessa from Vancouver and Angela from Brisbane its not too bad at all and i get on with them great. It wouldn't matter if i didnt though cause Whistler is the most amazing touristy place i've ever been. Theres a surprisingly strong ... read more

So hey everyone, I've now been in the land of Kiwi's for 10days and it honestly feels like months. the kiwi experience bus has been quite an experience and i haven't stopped since i got here. Spent my first couple of days in Christchurch then headed over to the West coast of the south Island. the scenery's amazing and I only just missed the snow season - never mind the mountain tops are still dusted with the glorious white stuff and its building up my excitement for Canada. On my first day on the tour I went jet boating in the buller gorge. This crazy guy was driving the boat - which he pulls to the river using a tractor and he was mental. We were zooming up the gorge missing rocks by cm's doing 360 ... read more

Fraser Island What an amazing place im not gonna write too much cause it would take too long but basically we toured the sand island for 3 days in a 4x4 driving through gorgeous rainforest and along never ending beaches. we visited freshwater lakes cause the sea was full of sharks so we couldnt swim in it. Saw a tonne of wildlife like sharks, whales, dolphins, giant turtles and dingo's. the dingo's by the way are highly dangerous and were roaming around our camp!!! Had the best time our little group of 9 had a tonne of fun. getting stuck in sanddunes, nearly gettin caught out by the incoming tide, getting lost and just having a ball. Camping as i've never experienced before and will never forget. I'll let the photos do the talking. Julie... read more
