Hi there,

Aussies have a language all of our own - and it doesn't always land overseas.

This month, TID shares which everyday words might raise a few eyebrows on your travels, as well as handy travel packing hacks to avoid suitcase spills and busted zips.

Planning an epic travel album? Pick up some great tips for taking post-worthy travel snaps (safely) - and before you pack those valuables, look into travel insurance cover options for your phone and camera.

You can receive 15% discount* off TID when you apply promo code G2G. This offer ends 17 July 2026.

Look out, Aussies about!

Turns out, we speak our own unique version of English, which doesn't always translate when travelling. Before you scandalise a Brit with talk of thongs and pants, take a squiz at TID's guide to navigating Aussie slang around the world.

Go viral (sans hospital)

Whether you're an influencer, sharing snaps with loved ones, or keen to show Cheryl from high school how well you're going, chances are you've taken more risks than you'd like to admit when lining up the perfect shot. TID's tips can help keep your 'gram-worthy moments safe.
