It's got everything you could wish for and more.
Do you yearn for a night at the opera?
The bright lights, the city, the clubs
Or a small country town miles from nowhere
With a servo, a store and two pubs?
Would you rather a snow covered mountain
Where the air is so fresh and so clean
Or to gaze at the sky from the desert
Seeing stars, as they’ve seldom been seen
To dine at the finest of restaurants
Or relax on a tropical isle
Maybe a trek through the jungle
Is more to your liking and style?
Should you search every far away country
With the risk that your search is in vain?
No, the riches are all on our doorstep
The mountains, the jungles, the plains
There’s a magical mystical nation
Where there’s still lots of space left to roam
To the rest of the world, she’s Australia
To the luckiest ones she’s called home.

What's
it like to live in Aussie?
- fairly low population (21 million)
- great transportation system (particularly Melbourne and Sydney)
- great beaches (Gold Coast!)
- fresh food
- fresh air (NOTHING like it, just breathing the air is a treat!)
- great health care... if you have health problems or thinking of old
age, going to Australia is a good move. Public hospitals are often
better than private ones
- clothes are quite expensive
- makeup is expensive (Aussie brands are cheaper outside of Aussie!)
- cigarettes are expensive (a way to discourage people from smoking)
- foods that are bad for you are expensive (ex. soda)
- lots of things are more expensive in Australia than in the States!!!
- limited brand selection (in order to protect Aussie industry), you
will NOT find Hersheys in the supermarket
- laidback culture - great if you're the type that easily gets stressed
- warning: shops close at 5/6 pm except for 1 day a week (9 pm Thursdays
in Sydney; 9 pm Fridays in Melbourne)
- great food variety (from all the immigrants that are there)
- very unique flora and fauna
- generally cool save for winter and summer (extremely hot)
- hardly any poor people!
- education: Aussie citizens can study on loan from the government and
start paying back only when they are working and at a certain salary
level. Great if you have kids and don't want to worry about the money
for their education
- the FLIES are crazy at certain times of the year
I love Australia despite a lot of things there being more expensive than
in other parts of the world and the stores closing so early! It's a
wonderful place to live.
