Australasia
Australasia is generally relatively safe, especially Australia & New Zealand. The size and diversity of environment tends to surprise people travelling in Australia for the first time. If you are driving, ensure you take ample supplies water, fuel etc,as the distances are vast. Also, it's important to appreciate the strength of the sun, contracting skin cancer is a threat and something the Australians are well aware of.
For those planning to explore Indonesia be aware of the ongoing terrorist threat against westerners, check situation on www.smartraveller.gov.au or www.fco.gov.uk
New Zealand | Kaikoura to Blenheim Highway
Highway 1 from kaikoura to Blenheim was badly damaged by an earthquake and is still being rebuilt. Check before you travel because in the summer it is closed from 7pm to 8am. I don’t know about the winter but the detour is 3 hours extra.

Fiji | Staying in Nadi
Nadi is not worth staying in for more than 2 nights. Hostels on the beach are very relaxed but there isn’t much to do and the town is very small with not much to it. Recommend Bamboo hostel which is near the airport with a free shuttle bus to both the airport and the Port where all island hopping begins from.
