			<description>I am heading to Australia in a few months for a trip around. What should I see? Where should I stay? Where can I get work? I am really excited! I decided to come on my own, which is really scary, I have been told that I will meet a lot of people so I am looking forward to that as I love meeting new people. Anyone have any tips for things I should do and places that I can stay and EVERYTHING!</description>
