Hi Jack, It's a great feeling isn't it! My WHV was granted in May and I'm(finally) flying out on the 1st Feb. When are you planning on going?

Yeah defo I'm staying at WakeUp from the 5th feb! Add me on Facebook- Kayleigh Gleeson. There's not many with that name, I'm dressed as a cat. For Halloween- it's not my usual day to day dress haha

Haha- Us newbies hey! lol

I meant more March time/April. apparently I didn't word myself very well haha

I was told it starts to cool down in March/April. I didn't mean Feb. I didn't word myself very well.

Hi Rosie, I know it's scary but Alix is currently out there at the moment And judging by her Facebook she is having the time of her life :-). You'll be fine, there are so many people to meet along the way out there! I arrive in February on my own and I'm so excited! It'll be the best thing you'll ever do, I promise!

Lots of pretty standard Backpacker stuff lol, haven't researched in a while, might get back on it soon!

Yeah I heard that, will just email them all and see what I get back haha:laugh: I just want to go noooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww lol

I'm getting my insurance end of this month. Will be emailing around about the using the visa expiry as proof of returning and will be booking with the cheapest that says yes. I'll also be putting a copy of the email in with the policy documents I will give to my Mum just incase anything happens to me. Thinking about it, to be fair, that's not much left for me to do lol. Insurance and Bank Account and a few bills to sort... I thought I had loads! haha

Me too!! and I'n nowhere near yet haha

Wow not long now Stacey!! How you feeling?

Thanks everyone, this is all great! Will look into them all and see what will suit me best. Thank you.

Hey, I was wondering if anyone could suggest a good pair of walking shoes or trainers. I'm obviously going to be walking a lot. I do walk a lot now but I tend to wear stupid shoes(daytime shoes, pumps) and have no idea where to start looking or what to look for. Tbankkkks

Hi Laura :-) I'm leaving the UK on 1st Feb and landing in Sydney on the 3rd. Not sure where it will take me but I'm soo excited!

OMG so jealous. Keep us updated will defo have to meet if we cross paths when I get there! How are you feeling now it's so close? X
