Anybody got any plans for afterwards? I'm planning on spending a few weeks exploring Australia, or at least until I've maxed out my visa, before going back to Canada. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Where's a good beach to swim with dolphins? I think Dan is coming with me from LA. He's the funnest person ever (most fun?). No reasonable suggestions/offers will be refused :P

I have a request for any brisbane peoples, I'm going to stay after uberOz until the Feb moonfest (yay!!) and i'm wondering if any people would be able to lend me some sleepng room for some of the time inbetween, a couch or bit of backyard (for a tent) would be wonderful smile

So I would like to put flyers in backpacker's hostels around the various places to let travellers know about Uberoz...

Does anyone live near a backpacker area and could drop off flyers? Any recommendations of ones I could contact?

PM me would be good,
