Speaking as an Aussie, you probably won't find a friendlier, safer place to try out oversea travel than down here, with the possible exception of New Zealand.
The hardest thing about the trip is probably the long haul over the Pacific. The 14 hours from Melbourne to LA is not really fun, but as a means to an end you just relax and enjoy the rewards at the end.
Having said that, solo outback travel is maybe not the way to go unless you know what you are doing, so maybe best to stick to the coast.
