I am travelling to AU & NZ soon with my husband, we are 27 & 30 and are thinking of staying in hostels to save money on this trip. My concern is that we will be bringing a lot of expensive camera equipment, and I am afraid that if we stay at a hostel there will be a much higher likelyhood of our stuff getting stolen. We can pass for 'backpacker kids' on looks, but once they see our nice luggage and camera bags I am afraid people will notice we are not 'poor backpackers' and will get into our room and rob us. We've never stayed in a hostel before and if we weren't bringing all this stuff I wouldnt' even be posting here. Any advice?
