Australia is the best country, island and continent in the world. We'
re one of a kind.
Located in the Pacific Rim, Australia has been around for ages-50,000 years approx. First inhabited by Aboriginals, then a long time later-1770- the
British discovered this land and used it as a penal colony. However there has been some debate that the Dutch discovered it in the 1600s.
Australians are mad about sport, especially
cricket and Australian Rules Football, and we
don't really give a sh*t about much, for example the Cronulla Race Riots stopped because the Ashes Test
Cricket Series was on. This laid back lifestyle is partly due to the cultural diversity and small population.
Out of Australia's 21 million
people, over half live on the East Coast. Canberra is the capital, and Sydney is the most populous city, with 4.5 million
people in the greater Sydney area.
I, personally, love the Central Coast of New South Wales, because it has great beaches, a great lifestyle, and rainforests about 20 minutes up the road.
Australia kicks arse.
Sure, you go to
Europe and America and you think 'wow, this is cool', then you come home to Australia, have a
beer, and fire up a Barbecue and think 'but I wouldn't trade this for THE
WORLD'
