On March 17, a young Australian boy flew to Bali for a vacation alone after his parents decided to cancel their holiday to the island. Reportedly, he used his parents' credit card to book flight tickets and check into a hotel in Bali, till he was finally discovered in Perth on his way back. Not only did he manage to fool his parents, but he also dodged security and officials all through his solo trip. He promptly did a self check-in in Australia, claimed that he would be joined by his sister while checking into his hotel in Bali , and used his school identity card to his advantage wherever needed.

His only motivation to brave this trip? He just wanted an adventure!
