AIBU to not want to commit to visiting my cousin?

My Cousin has just married an Australian man, is expecting her first child and has just moved to Brisbane. She’s asked and keeps asking if I could give her some dates when I can visit but beyond the incredible nature, Australia isn’t a country that appeals to me at all. I have no desire to visit it plus it’s expensive and I’d rather use my annual leave for my own use not to visit a country I don’t care for.

I have a few friends there who would like me to visit too but again it doesn’t appeal the thought of spending so much money and a long flighy(I detest flying).

Perhaps I’ll visit eventually but I have no desire to make plans now.

AIBU to not want to make plans to visit?

I’ve talked with her and we’ve agreed to chat more often. Hopefully she’ll make some friends soon too. She had a strong friendship group back in the UK and though they’re in contact it’s obviously not the same as being able to go out with them and meet up whenever she wishes.
