Yes, in Australia and New Zealand you will be incarcerated for no less then 10 years and be awarded a fine of no less than $10,000 if statutory rape takes place where there is an age difference of more than 2.5 years. Although this depends on your birth months, so don't lose hope yet.

You can have your girlfriend petition for emancipation in which case you would be able to have an abortion, however you still wouldn't be out of the woods yet. As abortions for minors are a criminal offense your best bet would be to have the abortion and accept the fine rather than risk having the child and therefore admitting to raping your girlfriend and going to jail for 10 years.

Your third and most logical option, in my opinion is a home abortion. Just remember, as with all surgical procedures, air goes in and out, blood goes round and round, any variation in this is bad.

Yes, it is illegal. The age of consent in Australia is 16 years old.

It can be a defence in Tasmania if the age difference is less than three years.

That all depends on where you live. If you live where the consent age is above 16 then you will get in trouble with the law if they are told. There is a law of statutory rape on under age sexual relationships so beware of this as you could end up in jail.

What to do when you find out your girlfriend is pregnant and your traveling Australia at the time and have very little money?

Get a job? You are not telling me what your girlfriend and you want to do or where you live. If you are going to have a baby the two of you better be working hard until the baby comes. That can also mean stop traveling. If she is in the US and wants an abortion there is funding that can help her afford it if she can't get Medicaid.
