Yeah, sorry, this is one of those 'looking for a lift to Australia' type messages. I'm trying to go around the world using only my bicycle and boats. It's a silly idea really, but I had nothing better to do. So far I've got from Paris to Thailand, and the big problem I have now is how to get to Australia. My bicycle is particularly useless on water, and so I need to find a boat.
So I'm kind of looking for a lift here, or at least just some advice about where to go and when. I'm planning to hang around a few marinas looking shifty until someone takes pity on me. It's a bad plan, so if anyone can suggest something better (should I shave?) I'd be keen to hear it. Actually my big question is when do the boats go? I'm planning to be there April/May/June although I could be there earlier. And, where do they go from? What are the big ports in Indonesia/SE Asia that most of the boats heading for Australia go to?
If you are looking for crew to Australia, please do contact me. I'm actually not that incompetent (I was referring to my bicycle, who will do nothing useful I'm afraid.) I am a hard worker (I cycled from Paris) and a good cook, and my feet don't smell, and I know one good pirate joke. The time will fly by!
