Getting Started

So here we go. So most of you I'm sure know by now that the plan is I am off to spend 2013 in Australia. 
I will be flying out on the 15th of January, spending a couple of days on Rainbow Beach, going to a training farm, then spending the rest of the year working on various ranches in the Australian outback. Hopefully I shall be able to keep up some kind of contact during that time.


We're currently at T-minus 6months... with a lot to sort out before then, most important I would say are: insurance, flights and visa. The former being quite simple, the latter two presenting the problems. One of the terms of applying for the visa is you must have a return or onward flight... simple enough... Now flights... it would be easy enough to get a flexible return date but do I want to come straight back? or, do I want to go to NZ for a few weeks before coming back? what to do??? The sooner I decide, the sooner I can book flights, the cheaper it will be... what to do?




And a song I rather like at the moment...
