    I visited the country in 95 I only arrived on a one way flight on my own with 800 ozzy dollars in my pocket..I wanted to travel round the country but found myself having to work all the time to pay my way..I did go to Byron bay for Christmas and new year’s but mostly I was trapped in Sydney...I hope to go back and do it properly this time and head straight up north..

      Love this guy, his such an iconic Australian.
      Start from Perth or Darwin and make your way to the Kimberly region. Special place the Bungle Bungles, incredible sights to see and yes the tribals still exist, incredible race of people. Before you come learn about them, their DNA, their spiritual belief systems their dream time, their rock art and make sure you do some guided tours with them, pretty special life experience that you will never forget. And take some cash, if your lucky you may pick up a locally made didgeridoo or boomerang, but be careful they do come back, lot like catching a frizby but if you miss, well there's usually a hospital within a couple hundred kilometers lol.

      Actually you can use the same wood on itself in most situations and it works fine, if your fingernail can make a dent in the wood and its dry and not rotten it should be good to use. I use xanthorrhoea, langana and hibiscus on itself all the time.
