yeah, its going to be full on! but i work for my dad so i can take as many days as i like =) that sounds mad, so your doing america and canada for 4 weeks, it would be good to spend more time there but money was a bit tight.. haha, on contiki we will see if you can “drink” its like having a huge bender of a weekend every night =) cant wait! im so excited. have you done much travelling? if so with friends or yourself?

Hi everyone. I’m an aussie already in Canada on working holiday and I’m thinking about joining this tour on a late deal if I can swing it. I’m keen to meet people I can travel with who are keen to have a good time as I have been here in Canada on my own so far. You all sound like cool adventurous people :)
