hahahahaaaaaa

you work with architects dont you cleasc...

........ Germany

Yep, i like what they do but dislike working for them because a lot of architects are simply unrealistic in what they want to achieve.

So this was amusing why???

germany....

architect heaven

 

i've heard great things about berlin n hamburg!!

but yeah, man, germans are crazy!

great architecture tho

i dont think there would be many places i wouldnt like to visit. even north korea is meant to be mega interesting n ace!

Yeah, plenty of work going on there atm. I want to try and get setup there for a year or 2.

Plus it's fairly central in Europe which makes exploring much cheaper and easier.

I also want to see Japan, Canada, USA, Brazil & Peru (Kurko your pics had a lot to do with that).
But these will have to wait...

CANADA


MEXICO


BEIJING


COSTA RICA

LURLINE ST MILE END!!!!!!!!!!!

You can travel to every corner of the globe and you won't find anywhere better than Lurline.

 

i had a strange feeling that something stupid like this might crop up with you having posted...



but this on the other hand is a fucking great call dude!! remember this post..... it may well be your only one like it



looking at doing the same thing in Austria/Slovenia 

Atleast i wont need to worry bout bumping in to you when im chillin at muscle beach 



EDIT : Camp Woodward shows some promise 

Oh god, those women (at least I think thats what they are) are absolutely hideous.

Certainly doable dude.  We've done 5 of those places with a load of others thrown in as well. You could go snowboarding at a few of them too, make it a double header.  BTW I plan to go snowboarding for my b'day in late jane/early feb and you're invited. 

As some of you may know I've been thinking about trying to get setup for a year or two in Germany within the next 12months. But having just gone permanent @ work I'm looking at other possibilities. Dubai is the next best option I might have in terms of a transfer within the company. So I'm wondering if any of the massive have been there or what they've heard from peeps who have???

dubai is nuts! massive divide between rich n the poor illegal workers n shit putting up the buildings. emirates are pretty nuts, they are pretty open to westerners but its also very strict (ie drugs, alcohol laws)

land of opportunity tho gateway to the world,also would be a massive expat community.

Yeah, we're about to pickup a job for part of that world map island bizzo and a new 7 STAR hotel!!!

Just wondering what it'd actually be like to live there for a while... I figure that travel from there wouldn't be too pricey either.

Def not as enticing as Germany but no GHD office there, Ireland would be the closest (which I have also heard good things about)

yeah ireland would be aight, massive climatic extreme from dubai! its fucking HOT there man! but would be cool for 6-12 months to live depends on what sorta holiday time u would get, etc.

I'm going to live and work in ireland in a few years, just got my irish citizenship and passport the other week

Putting the wheels in motion for a holiday in the sun! Cairns, Port Douglas and some real rainforest lovin!

owwwwwwww sun shine!

I've heard it's totally awesome, I reckon it would be well worth a look in over Germany. 

As soon as day light saving kicks in we are off down the Great ocean road again 

I've not posted in here about my ultimate holiday destination purely cos I can think of one, spoilt for choice. I would really love to go to a tropical island tho, perhaps somewhere in the Caribbean. Also anywhere I can snowboard.  Doin that for my birthday this year woooooooooo. 

so so desperate to head to tunisia in northern africa: there's a resort in the middle of an oasis in the desert there that is just all tents, i cant find any pics of it on the net but here's some pics of tunisia:

also DYYYIIING to go to moscow, I speak russian but have never been there!







and i'd love to go to maui in hawaii and just magnum out for a few days!

im getting married in april and me and the wife to be are going on a 3 week drive up the coast as we have both not seen much of the east. Can anyone recommend some good spots or place worth checking?

Would love to go to Wales next year. Check out my roots n shit

do you speak welsh at all steve?

honestly, Paris wasnt all I thought it would be cracked up to be.

Dominican Republic was scabby.

Spain was minging too.

Tenerife. No.

Poland is good for cultural experiences. Germany is great for drum n bass

India, was really good fun. So was Africa.

But, Thailand is my favourite place in the whole wide world 

I haven't worked there but I visited my Uncle and lived a life of luxury for a couple weeks on my way around the world a couple years ago.  It really is a crazy place and definitely got my interest.  He went over in the mid 90's to manage a private jet service for the main man and only recently came back to Adelaide.  His wife and kids hated it over there.

Nice quick summary there ATM! 

I agree with your feelings on Thailand, that's why I'm going to live there for a while in December...

I can.

Cwgywg Pyggyfdg Gbyfygdf Ygfddfgy

That means "I would like a glass of milk"

If you have been to Wales you would understand.

 

Since when did you speak Russian, Comrade?

Вы имеете симпатичные boobs и я хочу выпить водочку от их.

 

I love the sunshine coast, Maloolaba, Maroochydore, Noosa. Pt Douglas was beatuiful. I was paranoid about crocodiles though 

Australia has some beautiful holiday spots.

Next year im looking at the Europe for two-three months, the plan is to save now and plan later because i keep changing my mind on where im going!

Heading up to Movie World this week for a work do... should be fun!

you forgot all the double L's...  clicky l's!!

Lethal Weapon and Superman

thats about it

If you can afford it, I would really recommend that you visit Phuket



The Phi Phi Islands, is where they filmed "The Beach" is possibly the most beautiful place I have ever seen on earth. The snorkling and fish were amazing... millions and millions of them aroound you.. I felt like I was in the most amazing tropical fish tank ever...




As for Tunisa - It wasnt as great as it looks... honestly honestly...
Looks really great in the photos.. but heres some of mine that I took

To be honest, Im glad that I went to Tunisia, but unless you take the 3 day trip to the Sahara Desert, its a complete waste of a trip... it was only about £150 for 2 people for the additional 3 day trip... and camel trekking in the Sahara was the best part of my holiday there so I would really recommend that. It took us on a train trip as well...

Tunisia on the whole was pretty dull otherwise.

image not archived: eljem15.JPG


I suppose it depends on what you want out of a holiday.... For culture, Tunisia has it all.

a lot depends on how you do you holiday as well as where you go.

if you went to phuket or patong you'd hate it. if you went to kata noi or karon on phuket it may well be a different story.

if you do a day trip to phi phi it'd be pretty poo too. but if you spent more time there and stayed on the more northern beaches as opposed to the bay, you would have differing opinions.

again, if you tour though tunisia with a tour group you would probably think it was crap, but this may change if you do something different.

photos can make anywhere look great, just look at the website for the Elizabeth Shopping Centre.

as i said to everyone who asked me "what are you looking forward to the most?" i always had the same answer, which is the same answer for what i most look forward to in life...

the unexpected. no matter how much you want to go somewhere/see something/do something, nothing is better than an unexpected surprise, and it is these moments that truly make your holidays memorable.

think about it

very late reply buy i spent 4 nights up on the sunshine coast and it was great, bout 90 mins north of brizzy, great beaches, great weather, not very touristy, good to relax.


for me i just wanna get to the UK... 6 months...

see I was in Patong, but up in a 5 star hotel with a private beach about a mile out... and it was paradise.. and I loved Patong.
I think the lady boys were the unexpected suprise for me, I thought they were women for real

are u driving from adelaide around to sydney? or swinging across the centre and driving from sydney up?? south coast nsw and eastern gippsland is breathtakingly beautiful, mountains up to the beaches, forests and small fishing/abalone villages. i can recommend some great places to stay too, Cape Conran has amazing beaches, some Parks-owned eco-huts to stay in too. The Mallacoota caravan park is pretty damn awesome, its right on the beach and when we were there in feb we swum with dolphins, they just came in to the surf!!! it's really a part of australia not many people get to see.

i would LOVE to visit St Petersburg, drink vodka in dimly lit music bars, ow yeah!!!

also, i want to visit finland and iceland.

I wanna go to an island resort! I don't care where! now now now!

I want cocktails with lil umbrellas.

wow! i guess you could say that phuket resorts are wicked??

anyway, my response was to Glock as an abridged version of your response to him/her

lol... I thought it was beautiful. Id never seen food arranged like that and all the art in Patong was so amazing. Have you been to Thailand?

three times so far this year.

*happy sigh* thailand is so wonderful, especially off the beaten track...or at least, away from israeli "backpackers"!!

and you didnt like Patong?

And they filmed Star Wars there!  

if you ask me Patong is one of the hole-iest holes that ever holed

thats pretty holey, and fluke knows all about holey holes.

i know a hole lot!!

 

I agree!!!! Much nicer places to visit, often only 5 kms away!

Im going to malta in 2 weeks! whooo

Losing the winter coat for summer hey?

my fat arse you mean?

Ive lost near a stone... only another 1/2 stone and I will be happy. I wanna look semi ok in my bikini, last year I was busting the beach whale look. 

Fellow people.

I need some help in deciding what type of holiday to go on end of next year.

Here are my options-

Tahiti & the US (Vegas, NY etc etc)

OR Europe & Ibiza.

what do you think. The reason why I ask this as I cant do both- its one or the other. Reuben wants to do the Tahiti/US option whereas I want to do the Ibiza/Eur option.

I cant fkn make up my mind. I have the feeling the Tahiti/US option will be cheaper

Thailand rocks, awesome scenery and weather and friendly people

Patong isn't too bad, great party town. cheap booze, prostitutes and shopping lol

just be sure to block your nose when you walk over a drain

Im not really interested in prostitutes on a honeymoon!

 

I want to go to...
Mexico
Czech Republic - Beer is cheaper than water!
France - Have family friends who own a flat over the Champs Elysees, a house in the Pyrenees and a chateau in Borgelais. (sp?)
Ireland - Family history and all
Spain - Running of the bulls!
Malawi - Africa where you may not get hurt
Portugal - Another family friend who's actually a matador and I want to see the bull win
Italy - FOOD
China - Not Beijing though
Morocco - It's hot, dry and very colourful
USA - For some reason I'd love to see the 'hick' states, just to find out whether they're as bad as people say. And New Orleans.
I'll think of more later. I just want to go everywhere!

 Have you not seen 'Cops'?

Bad Cops Bad cops.

Bad Cops Bad cops.

Tanzania is great too babe, and you get to go to Zanzibar! Also, Madagascar is nearby. Botswana apparently is wonderful too

Stryke, I have, and Jerry Springer too... I just want to see them in their natural environment so I can observe and study.
I shall call the study the Toothless Wifebeater Society Study and the Effects of Cousins Marrying on Childbearing.

Ar-HUM

won't be cheaper if you goin to vegas

Go to St Tropez, apparently its wayyy nicer than Ibiza

I think u should flip a coin for it! Let fate decide!

huh?

 Bad cops bad cops is a little tune i like to sing to myself  whenever the word cops is mentioned. Its a simpsons joke.

Dont worry im a bit nutso

Yeh i like the idea of flipping a coin. Maybe I should get quotes for both then take it from there

I'd go the Tahiti option that's be much nicer and secluded with awesome beaches. Ibiza would be pretty thrashed IMO, full of Brit geezers...

Go to the Carribbean instead.

me too

WOOO! Bad cops bad cops

awesome

Now. That shit it is a real anthem!!!!

None of this Mr.Happy bizness when we've got some ragga cop sounds of da underground!

 

USA - New York, LA & Boston my favourite The ppl are really friendly and felt safe wandering around.
Canada - Toronto! <3

London - over-rated and too many Aussies! LOL

This is just one of the places we are going at the end of July
San Sebastian in Spain....

and most people move to england

pfft!

I wana drive THIS


up THIS


Stelvio pass Italy

Yea well I can't speak snaglish and need money now!

You guys are a bunch of dreamers 
Catastrophic where the hell you gonna get the money to drive that type of car

I got a plan for world domination, its all under control

ive always wanted to go to antarctica

i think its probably because it reminded me of the 'hoth' planet on empire strikes back, and i always wanted to go to another planet.

outback SA didnt feel like tatooine though

Ahh I went to Aberdeen in Scotland for the first time ever this weekend, and it has a proper sandy beach and everything. Had a wicked time... great clubs, great people, cheap food. Really interesting city. Would definately recommend it for day if you are ever up in Scotland, and go to Jimmy thingys on the beach front - eat as much as you like chiinese for £12.99 - was so yum 

looks like im doing a overnighter to brisbane later this year, should be fun

as long as you don't drive when in Brisbane it will be. Worst roads for tourists ever.

Ergh the mess of one way streets! It's terrible in Brissy.

I'd love to go to Tuscany, I have decided.

Nah just going up there for a ASM comp crash the night in a packers & get my sorry ass back in the air
