Yes Australia is expensive. So is Europe, America etc etc.
You can minimise your expenses - shop in supermarkets for your food (breakfast, lunch and dinner), minimise your consumption of alcohol, camp, reduce your cruising speed and minimise your time in the expensive places.
Of course every now and then - splurge! Have a bit of luxury just so you experience that too - dinner out at an expensive (but good) restaurant, a hotel stay etc. A balance between saving and enjoyment is the goal.
