My friend left on wednesday to go travelling.
She's spending 3 months going round South Africa, India, America and then Oz for 3 months
She looked so funny trying to carry her backpack, bless her

Did the exact same thing around the same time but 4 years ago
went to malaysia, visited KL, Penang, Teiping, Ipoh. Then i went to aussy, sydney and adelaide for 2 weeks, then came back to Malaysia.
Whatever you do, do not take train journey's around Austrailia, sydney to adelaide took 25hrs!!! sod doing that again
(by the way, you'll notice the change in seasons when u cross the equator, so bring a few warm cloths for austrailia, depending where in aussy u go.)
