1. As long as they're there, that's also a reason for the trip, as well as seeing how different it is to Australia.

    I've never been outside of Australia so it'll be like a real freaky thing for me thinking ''Wow, I'm heading to Dublin!''
  2. Never been to another country?? Well, I guess Australia's pretty big.
  3. Yeah, I've been to Melbourne (that was for U2 last year) and Brisbane (well, the Gold Coast). Those are the only two I can remember.

    Planning on 2012 being my year of holidays - first I'll take this one and then next up will either be Melbourne, Perth, Sydney or Tasmania. Not yet decided though I said to my friend we should check it out for a week or so.
  4. Ok, I've been to different places in Sweden, been to Denmark, Norway, Iceland, different Spanish islands, the Azores (Portugal), Crete (Greece), and Cyprus as a little kid.
  5. Awesome!!! I'd love to go to Greece, do you remember what that was like?

    Yeah, that sentence got fucked up. Only Cyprus was as a little kid.

    Crete was very nice. Ask about it if you want.
  7. Ah right. Crete, what was that like and is it worth checking out?
  8. Crete was very nice as I said. We stayed in a hotel right by the beach in a beautiful village close to Chania, the second biggest city on Crete. There's a real nice atmosphere on Crete. We visited Knossos, an ancient temple/castle that was pretty cool, also a beautiful beach on the southern side of the island.
  9. I've heard of Knossos before somewhere, don't know where but I do remember thinking it looked lovely. Sounds like a great place to check out - might have to on my eventual world travel.

  10. Also, Greece cuisine is very nice.
  11. How much does Australians now about the ancient Greeks? Crete and Knossos was very important.
  12. Heard that a few times actually. I was almost going to try it just this weekend gone. Any recommendations?

    I'd say they'd know a fair bit about Greece, but then again you never know. This is just my presumptions.
