Hi All,

Am heading to Cairns 1st Nov with CV in habd having packed in a couple of year in Botswana. I have 1600 hrs TT with 300 multi and a bit of IF. firstly, does anybody have some good advice on who to see. Am prepared to jump on buses to smaller dusty towns( cant be any weirder than Maun.) Secondly, Can anybody recommend a good backpackers/budget style place to stay for a couple for a weeks.

Thanks all.
