Review: Enjoyable, but lacking description

I enjoyed this book, perhaps because it is written by an 'ordinary' person and is very unpretentious and funny in places. However, I would have liked some more descriptions of Australia and the things he saw, rather than all the accounts of bars and drinking that make up a lot of the book. Plus, much of the book focuses on cairns and I found myself wondering when I was going to read about some other part of the country. Also a lot of stuff about the authors hang ups and issues which were not strictly relevant.
