I have been tossing myself from one end of the planet to the other for many years now. And although I spend most of my time here I hesitate to call it home. Whenever I am away I quite often think about Australia as an ideal place, but when I am here I feel like I am missing out on something. Now after 8 years here I can't wait to get back to Europe. Many long hours on the Internet don't give the same feeling as being there.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15501486-112425254628795517?l=travelaustralia.blogspot.com'/></div>Eric Chaffinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00340757266671770017Eric.Chaffin22@gmail.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15501486.post-1124252973765813252005-08-02T21:25:00.000-07:002005-08-16T21:30:38.613-07:00In a Sunburned Country by Bill Bryson<br />Cold Beer and Crocodiles : A Bicycle Journey into Australia by Roff Smith<br />Lonely Planet Outback Australia by Rob Van Driesum<br />Sydney (Eyewitness Travel Guides) by Ken Brass<br />Surviving Australia : A Practical Guide to Staying Alive by Sorrel Wilby<br />Rough Guide to Australia by Margo Daly<br />Australia: Journey Through A Timeless Land by Roff Martin-smith & Sam Abell<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15501486-112425297376581325?l=travelaustralia.blogspot.com'/></div>Eric Chaffinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00340757266671770017Eric.Chaffin22@gmail.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15501486.post-1124253331300028082005-07-21T21:33:00.000-07:002005-08-16T21:39:18.360-07:00Here is quote from Australian Tourist Commission. "Australia is a land full of powerful experiences just waiting to be discovered. Encounters with our incredible wildlife on land and in the water will truly open your eyes wide in astonishment. And as well as adventures for adrenaline seekers there are plenty that anyone can enjoy." <br /><br />Oh, well wildlife and adrenaline seems to be the main theme.<br />What about Patrick White and his literary works?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15501486-112425333130002808?l=travelaustralia.blogspot.com'/></div>Eric Chaffinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00340757266671770017Eric.Chaffin22@gmail.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15501486.post-1124254690484570212005-07-10T21:52:00.000-07:002005-08-16T22:12:52.636-07:00Australian travel website Webjet.com.au is getting ahead of traditional retailers like its own significant share holder Harvey World Travel.<br /><br />Some other travel websites:<br />Last minute line up of rental vehicles:<br />www.drivenow.com.au<br />www.webcarhire.com.au<br />www.rentnewcars.com.au<br />www.bargainwheels.com.au<br />www.standbycars.com<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15501486-112425469048457021?l=travelaustralia.blogspot.com'/></div>Eric Chaffinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00340757266671770017Eric.Chaffin22@gmail.com0
