Not to assume all Australians but in my view, Australians are people of few words but they are open and direct. They are very down to earth and always mindful of not giving the impression that they think they are better than anyone else.

Deciding to leave a violent relationship is a difficult decision and requires careful planning and support. Everyone has the right to respectful, loving relationships and no one should live in fear.

1. Find supportive friends - talk to someone you trust. Do not try to cope alone.
    
2. Contact a support group - they can offer you direct help through shared experiences.
    
3. Make a safety plan - include emergency numbers, pack clothing/toiletries, important documents, medication etc in case you have to escape quickly.
    
4. Contact the police - when you decide to leave – the police can be on standby when you leave to ensure your safety or if you need to return to collect possessions later on.
    
5. See a doctor - if you are feeling anxious or depressed. Consider talking to a counsellor/psychologist about how the experience has affected you.
    
6. Recognise your strengths - to create a more positive life. Your skills and abilities helped you leave an abusive relationship and are signs of your capability under intense pressure.

I just love the colour of this one.

beautiful sunset!

Victorians deserve better than being squashed on a train, stuck in traffic for hours and paying more for electricity

Giving the situation some time is a good strategy if you believe that there is a decent chance you can make the job work. But once you make the firm decision to leave, the sooner you give your notice the better

Please be very careful whilst you are there, DO NOT walk around at night on your own or even in a small group. It has got a lot worse since I left, I lived there for a few years. Alice still has something to offer to tourists, but you must be careful.
Most people go on a coach from Alice to Uluru or hire a car.

Thank you for your advice.

Will do

Did an organised group trip in 2012, flew into Uluru and out of Alice.  Did Uluru, Olgas one day, camped overnight and then drove to Kings Canyon another night, camped  lot and then to Alice for a night before flying to Sydney.

Alice is dodgy and you need to be careful at nighttime (we were advised to get cabs everywhere after dark).  TBH - I thought it was a bit of a dump and not a there.  I'm in no rush back.

If I was to do it again, I would fly into and out of Uluru (covers the Olgas as well - can't remember the Aboriginal name) .  It may mean skipping Kings Canyon (which was good bit was it worth the 4 hour drive? I don't know).

Thanks for sharing your experience!

Uluru is a four hour drive from Alice Springs. If you do not want to drive then there are daily coach trips and/or overnight stays tailored to what you need.

 

Just be aware that it is a long drive to Alice Springs from wherever you start. Not all car hire companies will be willing to allow for such mileage. If you are planning to fly out to Alice that is of course different.

My friends and I will visit Uluru this November, not sure which is the most transportation to travel around the area.

Any ideas?

We are visiting Adelaide in September, hope the weather will be nice then

Hope that whale watching will be more interesting.

The Department has amended the eligible age for Subclass 417 Working Holiday, which applicants must be aged at least 18 and no more than 35 years old at the time of application. If an age younger than 35 is specified in an instrument for a specified passport, that younger age limit will be applied.

I moved to NSW since last year and I have the worst experience by not obtaining the NSW license when driving (at the time I had my Victoria driving license, and I was so busy that I unintentionally forgot to apply for a NSW one within the first 3 months in NSW). As a result, I was stopped by the police for a random breath alcohol test and received a $550 notice of fine for not obtaining the right license.

Hope that you guys won't  have the same experience like mine

It's too far to travel from Sydney to the snow in a day. Thousands of people go for the weekend, though. The Hume Highway south out of Sydney is wall to wall snow traffic in the winter.

It's quite feasible to leave the city on Friday afternoon, drive down to Jindabyne or wherever, arriving 10 pm-ish. This gives you a full day and a half on the slopes before driving back on Sunday afternoon/evening.

We've done it plenty of times in the past.

Thank you! Much appreciate!
