With only two weeks left until i fly out to Perth, i get my first email through which makes it all seem a little real.
I am signed up with a company called Australian Backpackers, who will pick me up from the airport, put me up in a hostel in Perth for 2 nights, and they will also set me up with an Australian sim card and bank account. I recieved an email from them today, as they need me to fill in a few forms so that when i arrive they will have my bank account set up and a bank card waiting for me in the hostel. They also told me that within the first few days i will have a meeting with the bank, and they will send me on a day trip to Rottness Island!!
They also provide me with a permenant address so that i can receive post from anyone and they can forward it onto me where ever i am in the country. If you want to know the address it is as follows...
