Going Down Under

I’m dying to get away for my midterm break in September, somewhere far enough to fly to. If money wasn’t an issue, I’d head down south to Adelaide to visit my friend whom I haven’t seen since January. If she’s too busy to visit us, we’ll go see her! And because Australia in general is chock-full of Malaysian students, I bet I could find someone to visit in Sydney, Perth and Queensland as well.

There are several budget airlines offering flights to certain parts of Australia, but if you want the budget price without the budget experience, you’d be better off with a travel agent. DialAFlight, a UK travel company, offers personalised travel consultation to help you find flights to Australia, as well as help you plan your holidays in Australia. Their website has comprehensive travel services, from cheap flights to hotel room bookings as well as car hire and information on holiday activities.

Depending on your personality, you can head to different parts of Australia for a vacation. City rats like me won’t wander far from the bright lights of Melbourne, but those inclined towards marine activities would probably love to scuba-dive and see the Great Barrier Reef, or pick up surfing at the Gold Coast. DialAFlight also has package deals, to save you the hassle of putting together an itinerary. Packaged doesn’t mean regimented, though. The Free and Easy tour includes 7 days in a motorhome, so you can explore the wide expanse of the outback on your own.
