My dear friends and also the others who will visit this web sides,

finally you can look at our photos and imagine well what we saw in Australia. I must say that it was great and unforgettable experience. Some of you know that I unexpectedly decided for going to Australia during one day in June 2004 and Michael was agree although he had to leave his good job in Prague. We planed to improve our English and pass the FCE (international exam of English). I had been there since September until February (I had to return because of my studies in The Czech Republic). Michael has been there until May 2005. As full-time students we got the student visa with work permission but we could work only 20 hours per week (it isn´t like in Ireland or Great Britain yet), anyway we saved money for travelling and fortunatelly we saw all the most beautiful places of Australia. We studied (at Shafston International College) and lived in Brisbane.

After my FCE course we rent a car for 3 weeks during Christmas and we went to Great Barrier Reef (in total 1100 km), then to the south, in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide (4900 km). We saw many great places such as national parks, coasts, rocks, forests...full of wonderful contrasts. Another trip we realized in February, it was only for 5 days but it was the best holiday in my life. We went to see a mysterious and the largest monolith - Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon in Outback (1600 km). Lucky Michael has been traveling also in Western Australia in May and I hope that I would able to join his photos very soon.

Enjoy my web side.
