Which aspect of us Aussies do you want to know? There are so many things to tell.
Briefly, we are a laidback, fun loving people who believe in the principle of a "fair go" (a sort of "social justice" you might say). We don't care where in the world you are from, if you treat others the same way you want to be treated then you are ok. We are a multicultural society with people from all over the world living here.
We believe in the principle of people who work hard will be rewarded for their effort. We do keep to ourselves and try hard not bother other people but if the need arise, we all get together and help each other out - always lending a helping hand.
We love our outdoor and our sport . We can be fanatical cheering for our sporting heroes whether it be the local footy club or the team competing against the best of the world.
We have great sense of humour although a rather a sarcastic one. We don't take ourselves too seriously and have the ability to laugh at ourselves. That is probably why we don't get too much racial tension here - because we are not ultra-sensitive to everything people say (unlike certain country on the other side of the world where everything is considered "incorrect")
Overall, we are a good mob, love a beer and a barbie, will tell you joke or two and will probably call you a "bastard" after a few round of the grog to show that we really like you. We love our sunburned country and our beaches.
So... the snag is ready and the beer is cold. Where the bloody hell are ya?
I guess that is a start. What else do you want to know?

We are all individuals and describing us as a group would not do us justice.
As with every country and culture we have many many personality ranges and can be very different depending on the city you go to.
Best way to find out is first hand!

A good place to start would be Bill Bryson's book "Down Under".

The majority of us are great people, but I'm biased.
