Let's face it...that long haul flight is certainly worth it.
Not only that, any Australian will gladly tell you that there is so much more to see and do than what you just see in the brochure!
That's why it's so important to get your travel plans sorted out properly - whether it's Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, or even the Great Barrier Reef - Australia has it all!
Title : The Rough Guide to Australia (Rough Guide Travel Guides S.) Author : Margo Daly Rating : 4 Stars out of 5. Summary : Where would I be without this book?
this book was easy to use, very useful when I was travelling on my gap year and the reason that I managed to make it safely round oz. it guided me to some of the best places to stay and warned me off a few that I tried anyway and then realised the wisdom in their words after I had made my mistake. Buy this book if you are travelling oz, heed its words, take its advice but also don't be afraid to do a little experimenting of your own as I found many a gem of place to stay/ eat and see that were not included in the book - but then you cant expect them to know everything, it is only a rough guide but a very nice one to have by your side when you feel like you are on the other side of the world, it lends a big helping hand in making your travels that bit simpler. Buy.
Title : Living and Working in Australia: A City by City Guide Author : Roberta Duman Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : Essential reading....
for those people wanting to work and live in Oz. If you pack one thing in your rucksack, make sure it's this! Seriously, it's a must-have, the information is spot on, helpful and easy to use...finding jobs in Oz was made significantly easier with this book as a point of reference. I'd like one for South America now please!
Title : Ashes 2005: The Full Story of the Test Series Author : Gideon Haigh Rating : 2 Stars out of 5. Summary : Very Disappointing Ashes Book
Gideon Haigh the writer of this book tells us that he has English parents but was born and raised in Australia. He claims to support England during the Ashes but by his constant mocking of the England cause one suspects that this claim is more to satisfy his English readers. The articles in this book are those written throughout the Ashes for the Guardian and Cricinfo. They are well written, though somewhat awkward to read at times, and are of a much higher standard than most sports writing. You get the sense that Mr Haigh does not view English cricket with very much respect and indeed at times he obviously finds English cricket laughable.
The fact that on page 51 of this book it claims that Australia won the second test at Edgbaston shows that somebody didn't do their job. This is terribly wrong as millions of people in this country and around the world will testify. How this has gone unnoticed by the publisher is staggering and should surely result in the proof reader facing the sack and reprints being rushed out to sooth the dismay of their shocked customers. On the other hand, given the constant mocking of the England team, maybe Gideon Haigh wanted to stir things up by putting this score, because as a closet Aussie fan this is a result that would have surely warmed his heart.
Though Gideon Haigh claims to support England this really is the grudging Aussie point of view at the end of the day. Don't buy this book if you want beautiful images of the Ashes because there are many other books with far superior images. But if you want to read intelligent articles about the Ashes from a man who knows his stuff then this book is for you. Gideon Haigh may be the most annoying writer on the planet, because of his awkward style, but at least he has something intelligent to tell us.
Title : Xenophobe's Guide to Kiwis (Xenophobe's Guide S.) Author : Christine Cole Catley Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : Nostalgia and Laughs!
As a critical kiwi I thought this was a fantastic book, was a a real treasure! I had no idea there was so many mannerisms and thoughts I have that are so particular to the kiwi way of life! Felt very nostalgic at times and felt homesick, but laughed just as much! Could not put it down, will make sure my English friends and family read it so they understand me better!
