Really enjoyed reading your first blog post - keep them coming! So jealous, I'm sure you're having an amazing time at there! :) I've just come back from backpacking around South-East Asia and have major travel blues so it's nice to read new blogs about different places

Thanks! Hi,
Thanks for your comment I am glad you enjoyed it. I have never blogged before. We are doing Asia after Australia so I will have a good read of your blog and get some tips! Shame it's over for you now but you can always book another trip :)
Ahoy there! Fascinating info on yr blog... Hello Alison,
You'll meet some crazies in hostels, as I'm sure you know! I'll swap my crazies for yours.
Hmmm, agree with you about the poor old Indians, my girlfriend is Japanese, and there's no boundary the Indians won't trample over, owing to them never having met a woman before...Make sure they know who's boss, eh?
Alison I'll be going to Melbourne soon and looking to work as much as possible, so the Casino has jobs with lots of hours? I'll check it out. Sydney's got a million jobs of the telemarketer variety, pay is about $20/hr, job is in an aircon office but most people only stay a few weeks. Comfortable but crap job, hope that's helpful if you visit Syd. Some backpackers rotate, a few weeks in each company, they're forever looking for new people. Otherwise there's plenty of bar jobs, your boyfriend's experience will help him get one. Hope you enjoy your holiday...and if beer gets too expensive, you can buy a home brew kit (ebay?), and a week or two later it's ready to drink, 50 cents a longneck, 25 cents for a stubby. Hope this helps, cheers, -Max
Home brew kit sounds interesting Hi there,
Thanks for your comment. I am adjusting to them slowly! I keep considering telemarketing but I m terrible at convincing people to do things they don't want to. The strip I am working on has a lot of work to offer I don't think that you will struggle. If not just come work at my place, as long as you don't tell my collegues I blog about them, haha!
Thanks for all the advice, we will be going to Sydney at some point so will keep all that in mind.
Have good travels x
We like. Nice to get the snippets and know things are going good. Watch out for Italian fellas. He can,t be all bad if he doesn't support Chelsea tho.
You seem to have landed on your feet in Melbourne with your jobs so the Gee-luck is holding good. Hope to read more blogs in the near future. Take care,love n xxx
Hey Alison, it's good to read about your life down under. You seem destined to work with kids - now serving them ice cream! :) Glad you've got jobs and are earning your dollar. Look forward to reading the next instalment!

My name is Alison, I am 26 and from the North West of England. Due to my indecisive nature and a variety of poor life choices I ended up staying in my home town of Lancaster for a tad too long. So my career and travel ambitions took a back seat until now. Obviously travel comes before career (mostly because at the grand old age of 26 I still don't know exactly what I want to do) so me and my boyfriend James saved all our pennies and in May 2012 we hopped on a jet plane to Rio De Janiero. From here we intended to travel South America for 2 months, then to Oz for a undefined period of time, then... full info
