Ask HN: What should I do before starting my job in October 2014?

I live in Australia and I got job offer in Silicon Valley, but can only start in October this year due to visa reason.

now I want to make use of this 10 months' time in Australia to do something useful. I applied for Google and was rejected, before that I couldn't find a satisfactory job in AU. I have some savings in the bank and can afford to living a few months without income. What would you suggest me to do with this time to make the most out of it?

I'll walk the apalachian trail, at least a part of it. It's almost 6 months walking. It's hard to have another oportunity like this to do it.
