Australia

I have just recently been on a holiday to Australia and NZ. I would have thought the aussies would have been friendler than the kiwis but apparently not so.

I found that most of the aussies i came across gave me **** about being a canadian. And the kiwis were friendly as.

Is this statement true or is it just me?

Give me a full story from both sides

I'm currently in Grade 10 and living in Canada. I really want to move to Australia or New Zealand in about three or four years. Me and my friend have talked about moving together and working their for a couple years, perhaps even becoming citizens.

I really need to know what I'll need to do to make this happen - and where I should go. NZ or AUS? What do I need to do to work there and / or get citizenship? Thanks for any help.

Is it true that the first Europeans to see kangaroos asked the Aborigines what they were & when the Aborigines answered "Kangaroo" which actually meant "I don't know, mate" the Europeans thought it was the name of the animal ? Or is this another of those stories which is actually complete cr*p ?

My father reads it and more and more i'm amazed by the nationalistic/racist stories I feel like im in nazi germany the past few months.??? the oz i grew up in was never like this?

I really don't think the cronulla riots would have happened if not for the daily telegraph urging it all on "our beach" "our land" Racism is normal but I think the telegraph really encourages it - the "US" VS "THEM" attitude.

When I was out yesterday I was shocked when some anglo-aussie kid was trying to punch up a aussie-asian kid because the boy walked past him to fast and brushed against him,the asian kid was completely frightened and trying to get away and he would'nt stop hitting him.

Then today down the st,masses of people have flags on their heads? in my entire life in oz i've never seen people wearing flags on their heads esp in such huge numbers even on australia day-NEVER,not in all my years.Cronulla riot time being the only other time,the daily telegraph being the big force behind it.,

Basically, I need any tips on how to book the flight, as when I try tobook a return flight it always asksfor a specific return date, but as I'm not sure when I would be coming back I want to book a ticket that enables me to fly back on more flexible dates, certain dates over a certain period of time. Any tips? By the way I'm British and am flying from UK.
