I love a sunburnt country

I was fortunate enough over the Easter break to do a little bit of travelling and to appreciate some spectacular parts of what this wide brown land has to offer. I really enjoy holidaying within Australia– I love the breathtaking sights, the smell of native wildflowers and getting up close to the beautiful animals that are unique to this country.

Being such a passionate Aussie, I am often surprised by how little outsiders know about our country, especially since we only have a short historyto learn about. Perhaps it is the mystery of ‘Terra Australis’ that attracts so many travellers Down Undereach year… travellers who are often inspired by their experiences to change their whole lives and to move here for good.Often immigrants who haven’t had the opportunity to check out Australia first will post a few questions on Yahoo!7 Answers to address any concerns they may have about safetyor the environmentand to help them make a decision on which part of the nationthey are going to settle in.

Life in Australia does take a bit of getting used to, but other than missing a few of the comforts of home(recently a North American friend of mine nearly went mad trying to track down a supply of peanut butter chocolate!) it is more often than not a change for the better.
