spent a week in Cairns... but only because the hostel we were staying at was such a good laugh
For me, the best poart of the whole East Coast was either Surfers Paradise or Byron Bay.. both have their advantages
Getting real bored of Sydney at the moment, as was used to staying in one place for no longer than a week

but been in Sydney for over 2 months.. still good but like a warm London
Soon have enough cash to move on tho.. so all good
