Hi, I'm from Malaysia. I want to try solo traveling. I've planned to travel to Perth next year. Is there any good tips that I can use, for a first timer like me? Any good tourism spot in Perth that I should look into?
Thanks!

Nice one. Traveling is good education and it's fun.
You stay in backpacker hostels, budget hotels, camping grounds or caravan sites if you like, and if you fancy a bit of couchsurfing you can stay in somebody's home.
If you want to try a backpacker hostel before you travel, find one close to home and you'll soon see how it works and you'll meet people who are visiting Malaysia.
Here's one in KL. Price is in UK pounds but it will be in Rinngits or $US when you access the site from Malaysia....see links below.
1 UK pound = 5 Rinngits

For a cool holiday try the Cameron Highlands. Tanah Rata is a beautiful place to stay at and has some very good tracks for walking and cycling..
I had three excellent years in Malaysia and loved every day of it.

Sometimes you stay in railway stations or bus stations or airports (not always by choice but because of delays or inconvenient times of the transport), or you can take an overnight train or bus and save the cost of accommodation for the night but not too often. Stay healthy.

To get work, remember all countries have work rules and if you are on a visa it'll likely be a tourist visa not a working visa so take care.
Australia has very strict work rules.
You make friends on the way round so just go off by yourself and you'll have the freedom to join up with other people when you want.
Meet new folks in the hostels, go shopping together, share the food and cook a beautiful fusion meal or whatever you can do.
For money...traveling isn't cheap even staying in hostels so spend wisely.
I ate very well in South Africa and you can in South America and most of Asia but not all places in the world are cheap so be careful choosing a destination.
Australia will take around 250 -300 Rinngits a day off you for basic living...hostel and food. Then you have trains and buses and some flights for the long bits.
Long haul flights need to be booked 3-4 months in advance to get the cheapest fare so you get lots of time for reading about a place and getting any necessary visas and medical stuff sorted.
See your government website for travel advice, visa requirements etc.

Cheap tickets...look at prices for months ahead and you'll find the cheapest period so then you'll have a time scale for booking a flight on that route for when you want to go.
Travelocity and Expedia are good and look at airlines' own sites as well.

Packing...simple. Go empty, come back full.
Take the least you can live with. Clothes are available in every country in the world. Your back does the carrying so be kind to yourself.
Perth is a pleasant city and is quite cosmopolitan. I have some relatives living there. My daughter traveled there alone from the UK and had a very nice time and then backpacked around Australia for a month and had two weeks in the Cook Islands.
She got home safe and well, just as expected. Take normal care as you would in your own towns and cities and you'll be OK.
