Thank you for the great questions! We got a few minutes to relax and answer them, and wanted to share it with you! Enjoy!
What kind of animals did you see most in Australia?
We saw lots of birds:
White tailed macaw
Roselles
Lorikeets of several varieties
Sulpher crested cockatoo
Kangaroos seemed to be everywhere also. We saw them in every location we were in.
Did you see any poisonous animals?
We came across poisonous Redback spiders on the farm quite often. They live under rocks mostly or near ...

Hi class!
We just wanted to say hello and let you know we are still in Australia, surviving! We've been safe since the floods, but there is still a lot of damage and clean up has been difficult.
The only risk we've run into in western Australia is the redback spider! They are very dangerous and can cause a lot of pain. We are volunteering on a Macadamia nut farm in the western part of the country at the moment. That is the reason that we are seeing the redbacks. We've also seen a harmless...

All of our experiences from New Zealand were recently posted on the website as well as the corresponding videos. We will be updating you on the information about Australia shortly. We look forwar...

Fiji was a fascinating place for us to begin our trip. The people are very friendly and invite you into their homes as you pass them by. We were lucky enough to visit a school with children the same ages as you! We also went to a village and attended church. Everyone sat on the ground with their legs crossed and the kids sang beautiful songs.
There were a few things about Fiji that we were lucky enough to learn while we were there. Many of the people living on the main island are from the sma... Continue reading ...

Bula everyone! (Hello!)
Andrew and I arrived in Fiji this morning via a massive airplane. There were 300 or more people and there was an upstairs! The flight took 14 hours. They served fruit and yogurt for breakfast and a turkey sandwich for dinner.
Fiji is very hot. We took a walk with the owner of our hostel and he told us all about his village on the island of Maqai. He said village life was very different than living in the city of Nadi because in a village, everyone helps. His name is He... Continue reading ...
