Gemmel, my son has come back from a years travelling Australia. The company that helped him was STA in Southampton, they will do what what ever you need or will guide you through the process if you want to do things yourself. I will have a word with my son when he gets in from work later tonight, STA have a website which is good, they do open days \ Evenings as well. Luke really enjoyed his year trave!!ing. Sevvy
