Australia
In and around Australia
Okay, so I flew here right from NZ. I flew into Brisbane, drove 3 hours south to the town of Lismore, and that's where I'm going to school. Its called Southern Cross University. I'll be here for the next few months and I'll be uploading pictures (hopefully frequently) of places I will visit.
