I'm planning on camping during the summer and staying in accommodation during the colder months...

I won't be driving so I'll need to rely on transportation like buses...

How much should I look at saving up per day?

Answer
I'd suggest around $40-50USD or £25 a day.

it depends how socialable you want to be. Hop-on/hop-off buses like Oz Experience are great to seeing the country as they pickup and dropoff at hostels and stop at all the best places en-route. If you just take local buses you're likely to miss some great things.

You check hostel and bus prices in advance to give you a better idea.

What part of Australia has the least people?

If I'm looking to get away from people and basically be out in the wilderness of Australia, just backpacking and camping. What part of AU should I go to? Any reccomendations?

Answer
The Outback which covers a vast amount of area. But I would say Alice Springs, But thats basically desert.

You can also try the Blue mountains in New South Wales and the Victorian Alps.

A better option for your traveling preferences would be the South Island if New Zealand. They have great untouched environments that isolates you from the rest of the human world.

Try the Mountains & fjords of New Zealand. Its breathtaking!

I mean it would be no different traveling to the other side of Australia. theres no traveling visas needed for Aussies travelling to NZ.
