Heya
I'm James, i'm currently residing in Darwin, Australia -
Thought i'd sign-up on here, I'm to be travelling Timor next month, and well, i need some first-timer resources :D

It looks like an interesting little gig you've got running here

Welcome! Not sure I can be much a help for your trip, but I'm sure someone else will come along if you have any questions.

Timor, that sounds pretty cool. I don't have any advice specific to timor, a bit off the beaten track...but I really want to see some photos when you're there! How long will you be there for?

I too can't help out with specifics on Timor, but will be very jealous when you're on the island!

What sort of first-timer infos are you looking for ?

Hey dude, Darwin is a bloody awesome place. I've got a few mates up there and one of them has actually been to Timor to do some security work, he absolutely loved the place so I'm sure you'll have a blast!

Welcome to tpunk! Good to have you here and good luck planning your trip...Timor, that's pretty cool - I really don't know many (any?) people who've been there, so I'd love to hear about how it goes.
