Has anyone been to Australia recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Transport tips
I was there a while back and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.
Any recent trip reports would be helpful.
Cheers

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Did you use freelancers or find girls at bars?

Adding my experience: scene has improved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality.

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.
