1. Weather- during the day in winter here in sydney it doesn't usually go below about 15 degrees celcius, which is actually still pretty warm. The only problem is our school uniform doesn't change in winter so going to school is a but cold :( but in summer the weather is around 30 degrees every day which in my opinion is perfect! When it's 40 you can't do much other than sit in front of the air conditioner but 30 is perfect beach weather :)
This is the beach just down the road from my school! How lucky am I!?
2. Lifestyle- Australia is such a chilled, laid back place, and the things that are held in high importance are friends and family, which i think is really good because there are some cultures that put heaps of pressure on education or talent or money but the overall vibe in Australia is really relaxed, everyone's just here to have a good time :)
3. Beaches/Landscape- Australia has amazing landscapes! In one country you can go to rainforests, desert, snow, beaches, reefs...it is a pretty big country but still I don't think most other countries can claim that :D
Great Barrier Reef in Queensland:
Uluru, the big red rock in the centre of Australia (sort of like its heart haha):
4. Island- we're all alone :O, which is annoying because we have to fly everywhere which costs a lot of money but if there was ever a world war we'd probably be the last ones to be reached because no one can be bothered to travel all the way here.
5. Mates- Aussies are really great at supporting each other in hard times. I don't know what it is but we have a really strong patriotic spirit. Whether it's sport, other achievements or a natural disaster, Aussies will support other Aussies 110%, which gives you a really nice sense of belonging.
