My solo backpacking trip to Australia was full of excitements. I visited Perth, Adelaide, Tasmania, Melbourne, Canberra, Newcastle and Sydney.

I flew with SIA and arrived in Perth. I took the Indian Pacific Train to get across the desert from Perth to Adelaide. I was thinking of taking the ferry from Adelaide to Tasmania but after some considerations, I ended up taking Tiger Airways.

During the trip, I even went to visit the smaller cities like Cook Town, Kalgoorlie, Fremantle, Glenelg and St Kilda. I asked the locals for accommodation and when I misbehaved and got chased out of the house, I went to stay in the backpacker.

One morning when I woke up from the couch, I found a dog was sleeping next to me for the whole night. I went to the nude beach and realized that I was the only person wearing clothes. I attended a night party in a farm on top of the mountain.

I naturally fall in love with Sydney Habour without a second thought when I saw her. I was just unable to resist the beauty.

I walked from the city of Melbourne to the St Kilda beach. It was the day of the Pride Parade. An eye opener for me.

During the trip, I saw an amazing scene of a family of 4 well-behaved kangaroos waited patiently by the side of the road for the vehicle to pass by than they started to hop across the road. I almost got cheated near Chinatown and I finally witnessed the Australian Day on 26 January.

Though Canberra and Newcastle are a bit boring, I managed to entertain myself by trying to take interesting pictures. I was glad that I have visited Tasmania as both Hobart and Launceston are worth the trip.

Brisbane and Gold Coast were just just a 5 days of stopping over when I came back from New Zealand in another trip.
