I think Australia as any other place has its problems and also great things. I have lived there for a couple years. I loved the beaches ( especially on the west coast). The great barrier reef , the nature, Tasmania, Kangaroo Island. The exotic animals, the outback, Kakadu National Park, and soo many other places.

The fantastic weather (even the thunderstorms!) and the coffee (Ask for a flat white, but just in a decent cafe or restaurant - there are plenty! I tried some of the coffee chains and it was like drinking hot watered down milk!)

Everything, absolutely everything, I'm so glad to be born and bred here. I live in the LUCKY country.
To quote famous poet Dorothea Mackellar (1885 - 1968):
MY COUNTRY
The love of field and coppice,
Of green and shaded lanes.
Of ordered woods and gardens
Is running in your veins,
Strong love of grey-blue distance
Brown streams and soft dim skies
I know but cannot share it,
My love is otherwise.
I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of droughts and flooding rains.
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel-sea,
Her beauty and her terror -
The wide brown land for me!
A stark white ring-barked forest
All tragic to the moon,
The sapphire-misted mountains,
The hot gold hush of noon.
Green tangle of the brushes,
Where lithe lianas coil,
And orchids deck the tree-tops
And ferns the warm dark soil.
Core of my heart, my country!
Her pitiless blue sky,
When sick at heart, around us,
We see the cattle die-
But then the grey clouds gather,
And we can bless again
The drumming of an army,
The steady, soaking rain.
Core of my heart, my country!
Land of the Rainbow Gold,
For flood and fire and famine,
She pays us back threefold-
Over the thirsty paddocks,
Watch, after many days,
The filmy veil of greenness
That thickens as we gaze.
An opal-hearted country,
A wilful, lavish land-
All you who have not loved her,
You will not understand-
Though earth holds many splendours,
Wherever I may die,
I know to what brown country
My homing thoughts will fly.
Is that enough reasons for you?
Bye MATE!!!!

Neighbours and Home and Away make it look like a great place that never rains (unlike the UK!)

I love the weather, and most of all the accepting, non-judgmental and friendly nature of the Australians.
