Hiya Paul. Originally from Melbourne (mind you I've lived in Syd too). Currently in Aucks tho. I've organised to do a tour through first festival to Valencia. Would be good to have some team mates for the fight (so I don't get incredibly hammered haha).

Sweet - Ibiza is gona be mean!!!

I'll be travelling around Europe for just over 2months. Doing Conitki European Adventurer Jul 4 - Aug 10th. Then doing a top deck tour to Edinburgh 11th - 14th for Fringe festival. Then the spanish spree 15th - 26th. Then the festival. Fly to Athens for a couple of days on the 28th... then I'm doing the Egypt & Nile contiki till the 6th Sept. whew! Kinda tired just thinking about it, but it's gonna be awsome!

You guys doing any more travel after the festival?

Sounds like you guys are fitting in quite a bit aswell! I'll be in Spain during the bull run, but It'll be during the contiki adventurer, so doubt I"ll get to see any of it. From what I've heard it's pretty awsome.
