You are correct - Australia is both. Geographically, Australia is a continent...it sits on its own tectonic plate. Politically, Australia is a single country.
@@markgrech1866 You know, Australia looks a LOT like an island to me too but we're knocked out of the category because we've got that whole tectonic plate under us. It knocks us out of contention.

Ivan.... great photography... very well done mate. Glad you had an overall good experience. Next time come to MELBOURNE.... best city to live in. Sydney is spectacular but expensive and hard to get around. I am biased 🙂
Amazing Australian series. Wow! I had never heard about a silkie chicken before. Interesting... Even though you're not allowed to hug the koalas, at least you experienced being up-close to them. Thank you, Ivain, for sharing your amazing visit to beautiful Australia 🇦🇺. Great content. I enjoyed watching 👍👍👍.
This was wonderful content Ivain. I think you already realised that in this country Respect attracts Respect and you are very polite and respectful. I hope we see you back here again ... 🙏🌺
I disagree some of your observations, the guys you met in Mt Druitt, you said one has waited 10 years for Gov't housing so he is living with his Mum, he told you he has all the education etc, I'm guessing this was the guy sitting down, firstly what gives him the right to think the gov't should just supply him housing, there are thousands of people in dire situations who genuinely need gov't housing in front of him, he seems pretty settled, living with his Mum on gov't benefits, able to sit around all day pondering life. You're telling me in 10 years an education person can't get a job in Sydney what a load of rubbish, I have never been out of employment for more than two weeks in the last 20 years, if he is educated and doesn't have a good paying job after being here for 10 years it's because he doesn't want a job, these people are typically called professional bludgers, unemployment rate in Sydney is a measly 3.1%, there are plenty of jobs out there if you want them. IF you are educated you WILL get a good paying job in Sydney and you can pretty much rent a nice place in most suburbs, IF you are NOT educated you will still get a decent paying job but only if you want a job, The attitude of relying on Gov't benefits and waiting around for the gov't to give you a house is ridiculous, you are never going to get anywhere if that's your mindset, this man needs to wake up and take responsibility for his life, use the gov't assistance to get further education, stop waiting for someone else to save you, get off your bum and change your situation, quit feeling sorry for yourself waiting for the gov't to magically "fix" your life.

Australia is both a continent, country and island. In fact it's the largest island in the world and the smallest continent. Glad you loved my country, come again, if you do don't just go to Sydney there are lots of places west of there. Sydney is a great place but it's just one city. We pronounce "emu" as "eem you"
Come to Qld , you can hold koalas here. It’s a NSW law that you can’t hold one … You are right , in the wild they don’t like being picked up. I tried to save a baby one that couldn’t get over a property fence to a tree it was pacing about. I picked it up to put it over the fence so it could get to the gum tree and it was savage ! I got a beach towel from my car and tried again, it raced up the tree when I placed it over the fence . They have massive claws as I’m sure you saw.
I hadn't heard that!! I live in NSW on Central Coast which is very close to several wildlife parks. You can certainly hold koalas and also have your photo taken. Also there are koalas still in the wild up here and areas like Siding Springs and Coonabarabran where the clearest skies in the southern hemisphere exist and can be viewed at the Southern Observatory through their giant telescopes.
Hello/Giinagay my precious brother/Gagu. Thank you for visiting my homeland here. I am from the Gumbayngirr and Bundjalung tribes of the mid North East Coast. I live in Canberra ACT nowadays.

Australia is both a country and a continent. As a country, it is officially known as the Commonwealth of Australia. As a continent, it is the smallest of the seven traditional continents and is sometimes referred to as the Australian continent or Oceania.
Thanks very much, i really enjoyed watching your visit to Australia. I love the Cockatoos and the Lorikeets. Hope you return and see more of my country. Safe travels and i look forward watching more of your reports from around the world.
This zoo is so awesome Ivan I'm quite sure you enjoying the view of the animals close up opposed to just reading and hearing where they come from how nice to share😊
He is not the only black man who owns those cars there are many . Australians don't like people who show off their wealth . The tall poppy syndrome is real in Australia.
This is quality work , this is what I’m always hoping for . This content is like watching a documentary better than the discovery channel. Thanks bro! I’m Afro Australian living in Perth. I’ll follow you from now on !!!
Ivain great insight onto why sometimes you emphasize the black experience. As an African living in the US I should say i find the emphasis of race in the US very troubling. I have travelled around the world and I travel as a man not as a black man. I have been to China, Korea on a train across the country as the only black person in Poland, England etc all over Africa off course and never been subjected to racism. The most important advice I would give to people concerned about racism is first present yourself as an honorable person , learn the ways and local culture and you will be fine. You cannot go to a country where everyone speaks softly, shout at the top of your lungs and when people look at you crazy scream racism. The final thing i will say is have grace. People are curious and thats ok. If a white man or woman goes to an African village, kids will follow them around ouf of curiousity but no hatred. So if we travel to spaces where there may have little interaction or experience with black people we should be patient and not treat any reaction that seems over the top as racism. But if you should face racism , confront it head on unless your life is in danger. Safe travels brother.
Thanks for sharing your trip to Sydney Ivain. Thanks also for taking the time to see what life is like for our indigenous people and our immigrants. Very well presented and put together 👏
When I first lived and worked in Europe I found out I was surprised to realise I felt more connected to the world in Australia than in the few European countries I spent time in. Australians naturally look outward.
Great job! Have to point out one thing. From minute 20:15 to 20:32 you were able to hit two birds with one stone, so to speak. It was much appreciated! 😄
Mount Druitt isn’t usually thought of as a tourist destination. Just in case someone’s planning a trip and watching this. Staying in Sydney and didn’t show the beautiful harbour and beaches, botanical gardens and Taronga 🤷♀️ you would have seen lots of cockatoos and galahs around Sydney city, but you dont have to travel far outside Sydney City to see Australian animals living their wild life.
Next time you come to Oz , get away from the cities and head for the smaller towns . The Aussies will talk to you out there because they are real and not immersed in themselves . Go to a pub and meet the locals , and you’ll have mates who will look after you and show you around . It’ll be like going back in time when people will just be themselves , warts and all . They’ll like that you’re out there “ having a go !”
Glad you enjoyed Sydney, next time try to get around to smaller towns around north or south coastal areas from Sydney, yes Sydney is very expensive to live in, it’s ridiculous, overall I’m glad you enjoyed👌🏾🙏🏾😊
Australia - Kangaroo. Denmark - Swan. Finland - Bear. Saudi Arabia - Camel. Sweden - Elk. Spain- Bull. Japan - Carp. Blue Marlin - Bahamas. and many others :)
It is very simple. Australia is a continent because it is a large body of land surrounded by water. It is ALSO a country because it is an independently governed area of land. One doe not negate the other. We just happen to be the only country that is also a continent.
Australia is the smallest continent and the largest island. In addidion to the mainland there is also the state of Tasmania and a number of external territories such as Norfolk island and a large portion of Antartica that are also Australian.
Australia is a country because it has its own government. Australia is a continent because it covers its own whole tectonic plate . Australia is an Island ,a country And a continent .😂
Why is it confusing that Australia is both a continent and a country? Those birds are pronounced eem-you, not ee-moo. Thanks for your vlogs, Ivain - great work. That's a great observation about classism rather than racism - you're absolutely right.
Australia sits on its own continental shelf, (the mainland of Australia and Tasmania, and various islands). So it is a continent. The country that occupies the entire continental landmass, is called the Commonwealth of Australia.
When I saw you were in Australia, I checked out your channel, it's really cool and I'll be staying and watching more of your adventures. Maybe next time you*ll come to Melbourne, although contrary to what those Sudanese guys were saying about Melbourne, I don't know where they heard that stuff, but 50% of it was totally untrue. I'm really sorry about your nasty experience at the airport in New Zealand, cheers Rose
Correct! Australia is both a country and a continent. It is large enough to have tropical rainforest, 7 hot deserts, Mediterranean climates in Perth and Adelaide, temperate forests, savannah, and cool temperate areas like Tasmania, and south eastern Victoria.
Australia Continent & Island & one Country! Australia is one of the 7 continents, it is the smallest continent but the largest Island on earth. Snd the only continent that is also one country.
Hi Ivain, I was born, lived and worked the majority of my life right in Sydney .. and gotta say you were so wrong, the bird life in Sydney city is crazy. Also Australians by nature, all Aussies, dont like talking about themselves to strangers, and asking people about their personal lives, wages etc, is simply seen as bad manners, we're friendly but not huggers. As I commented to one of your other videos .. which I've enjoyed by the way .. I've travelled all my life and every country has different cultures, and honestly Ivain you cant neet and know people in a couple of days. And truly, most Aussies have never tasted kangaroo. 💕
Where do you get the idea that we eat kangaroos "to control the population"?? Kangaroos are mainly made into dog and cat food. Most Australians, apart from Aboriginals who hunt them, do not eat Kangaroo. Or they might try it only occasionally. Only farmers think kangaroos are pests, but they have taken the kangaroos land. The bird is pronounced EEEM-you, not ee-MOO. Glad you had a good time. You're wrong about social class. Some people have a chip on their shoulder. I am poor and was poor in Sydney many years ago. Never felt a class difference. Sydney is one of the most expensive cities in the world. You should go to smaller towns, beaches, mountains next time. We have snow fields, too.
Sydney is a colonial city if you want to see Australia get out of the city mate and visit rural Australia and speak to real Australians not foreigners who this country home Lol you lack real knowledge and information 😂
Kangaroo meat is readily available in a lot of supermarkets and has been in restaurants for as long as I can remember. Kangaroo tail soup was the first to be introduced. Now grilled and also in pies...
@@IvainTures hahahaha you sound like one of those Americans that gets stopped in the street and asked on camera "can you name one country for me?". They always say "like, eurooooope? Orrrrr maybe like africaaaaa?". 😂😂😂 When I was a kid I had a bunch of shirts like that from my south african step mother. People would say "where are you from?" Like the pure genius I was I'd say "Australia" So then they'd say, where did you get that beautiful shirt from? So as a little kid you'd reply "my mum" 😂😂😂 Then finally, "where is your mum from?" And then it got properly confusing when you'd say "Rhodesia". They say "that's not a country" and as a little lid you're just like "that's where she's from 🤷♂️". I do appreciate the arguably very funny situation where the whitest white kid that has ever whited is wearing african clothes and saying "my mum is from Rhodesia" in what was basically thick south african / black african mum voice". Hey that's what Australia is all about. Holy shit have I laughed about it a lot since then. 😂😂 I just realised, she's saffie/Zimbabwean and the dearest person to me on earth. Maybe the food has something to do with it hahahahaha why was she always trying to feed me 8000 times a day? She trying to make a little butter ball kid? 😂😂😂
A country? A continent? LOl you will find a variety of opinions on that. I say we are the largest island, a country and a continent. Yeah man, lets have it all! 😂 Oceania is the region and that includes Australasia (Aus and NZ) Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia. Interestingly enough Polynesia includes Hawaii, it isn't part of North America as one would assume. I'm from Queensland (QLD) you can pay a little extra at parks here and hold and be photographed with a koala. I didn't know that wasn't the case down in NewSouth. Next time you come here you must come to QLD. We are the tourist state, the Sunshine state. Gold coast with its theme parks, Sunshine coast, Great Barrier Reef and all the beautiful Whitsunday islands. The most beautiful beaches in the world.
It's a pity that you didn't get to pat a koala but I am glad they are putting them first (ones which have been born in zoos may be less stressed with people than rescues). Sydney is a very fast pace city, faster paced then other Aussie cities (and less easy going) so I'm not surprised you had trouble stopping and talking to people there (Sydney is my less favorite Aussie city due to the pace of it and the roads). Emu pronunciation isn't like 'oo' as in 'moo' but 'ew' as in 'new' like E-mew. If you come back to Australia, check out other Aussie states eg Queensland (not just Brisbane but also the Sunshine coast and Gold Coast there). If you want something like wildlife you could also visit somewhere like Kangaroo Island in Sth Australia and spending some time there, if you go there staying in the National Park caravan park is great.. a walk to the beach in the National park and you can also see wild Australia sea lions there (Kangaroo Island (SA), there are wallabies all over kangaroo Island. There and Queensland are my favourite Australian places. or go for a dawn or dusk walk/tour somewhere like Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary (Sth Australia) so you can see also things like potoroos, bilbies, possible platypus in a wild setting etc When feeding animals, try not to let the food in up in their eyes, that would have probably hurt the animal some. I was a bit shocked how hungry the animals there seemed to be, the way that kangaroo was grabbing, he was very hungry same with the others. Most places give pellets to feed the animals. Silkie chickens which are quite common in Australia make great pets (I used to have one), they are known to be a breed of chickens which are very gentle too.
Thanks so much for the feedback! I appreciate that. And good point about how hungry they seemed to be. People feed them nonstop and still they were acting that way. I will be back for sure. I enjoyed Australia a lot. It’s an amazing country. It’s so big, there’s a lot to see! Thanks so much for watching!
To clarify on the kangaroo population, there are 4 species that are each numbered in the millions. They are the ones that we eat, they're hunted for population control under strict licencing laws and regulations - which means no one can just go out and hunt them on a whim, because even though they are hunted, it's restricted, monitored and controlled, because they are still a protected native animal. There are also other species of kangaroo and wallaby that are not allowed to be harmed due to having lower and at-risk populations. I'd be inclined to say that it's not racism or classism that separates people in Australia but the attitude of the individual that does it. Some people don't want to be part of society, they don't want to work, they don't want to do anything other than mope around in their own misery and blame everyone and everything else for their state of existence. Others simply don't know how to fit in. Those that reach out and ask for help will get it, and they can learn and move on and get a life and live well here. The secret to success in Australia is to treat other people as your equal no matter what their circumstances are. We don't judge people based on their skin colour, their job title, or how much money they have in the bank. We will judge you based on how you treat other people, including the lowest of us. Treat the homeless person and the high ranking politician with exactly the same respect and you'll get respect in Australia. Behave as if you're better than others due to your job, education, money, or fame, and you won't get very far at all.

Oh I see! Interesting! I was confused what’s the difference between Australia and Oceania. Thanks so much!
And the largest Island
@@IvainTuresyeah Oceania includes New Zealand Fiji and Papua New Guinea.
Masterpiece Australia Series Video 👍👍
Thanks very much,
i really enjoyed watching your visit to Australia. I love the Cockatoos and the Lorikeets.
Hope you return and see more of my country.
Safe travels and i look forward watching more of your reports from around the world.
I will be back 100%. Thanks to you for your time. It means a lot! Cheers!
This zoo is so awesome Ivan I'm quite sure you enjoying the view of the animals close up opposed to just reading and hearing where they come from how nice to share😊
Thanks so much for watching ! I appreciate that! Yes, it was such a fun experience
Ivan, thanks for this lovely contribution
❤
My pleasure! Thanks a lot for watching! I appreciate that!
He is not the only black man who owns those cars there are many . Australians don't like people who show off their wealth . The tall poppy syndrome is real in Australia.
I love your Australian series! May consider visiting now. Keep up the awesome work!!
Thanks so much for watching! You should! It’s an amazing country.
hello ivain and wonderful content of Australia.
I like the video 📹, your on the move,down under.
Emu is pronounced “Ee-myoo” 🙂
Your positivity attracts positivity. God bless. 🙏
This is quality work , this is what I’m always hoping for . This content is like watching a documentary better than the discovery channel. Thanks bro! I’m Afro Australian living in Perth. I’ll follow you from now on !!!
Thanks a lot bro! I appreciate your time! It means a lot! I’ll get to Perth eventually!!
You are amazing person ! Love your outlook for life ! All the best
Thank you so much! I appreciate that!
Good job - - prob some of the nicest looking koalas ive seen in captivity and the birds had really cool personalities. You did ok so thanks.
Thank you for your honest feedback on your trip to Australia
Glad you found Angel Place. I think it’s awesome!
@19:59 That is the next Yoda for star wars lol. 🐨
glad you enjoyed this great place mate , your welcome here any time . safe trip ivain
Thanks so much! I Appreciate you watching!
Australia is a country and as a continent(usually refer to as Oceania) comprising Australia, New Zealand, Tasmania and other smaller Islands.
Hey... Tasmania is part of Australia 🇦🇺 😮...... just saying 😊
You are most welcome to come back come to the Sunshine Coast next time .
Ivain great insight onto why sometimes you emphasize the black experience. As an African living in the US I should say i find the emphasis of race in the US very troubling. I have travelled around the world and I travel as a man not as a black man. I have been to China, Korea on a train across the country as the only black person in Poland, England etc all over Africa off course and never been subjected to racism. The most important advice I would give to people concerned about racism is first present yourself as an honorable person , learn the ways and local culture and you will be fine. You cannot go to a country where everyone speaks softly, shout at the top of your lungs and when people look at you crazy scream racism.
The final thing i will say is have grace. People are curious and thats ok. If a white man or woman goes to an African village, kids will follow them around ouf of curiousity but no hatred. So if we travel to spaces where there may have little interaction or experience with black people we should be patient and not treat any reaction that seems over the top as racism. But if you should face racism , confront it head on unless your life is in danger. Safe travels brother.
Thanks a lot for watching ! I also agree with your approach and I stand 100% behind it. Thanks a lot for watching!
@@IvainTures All good. The content is great. You are showing the world travelling is more than about just chasing skirts.
🤗With your Irish music ☘️in the background!🫶l was expecting you 🫶to brake out in an ☘️Irish gig.💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
Thanks for sharing your trip to Sydney Ivain. Thanks also for taking the time to see what life is like for our indigenous people and our immigrants. Very well presented and put together 👏
So glad you had a great time. Please come back anytime. Best wishes from Queensland brother 😊
Australia is a Continent , a Country and an Island
When I first lived and worked in Europe I found out I was surprised to realise I felt more connected to the world in Australia than in the few European countries I spent time in.
Australians naturally look outward.
Come back soon!
Will do! Thanks a lot for watching!
Great job! Have to point out one thing. From minute 20:15 to 20:32 you were able to hit two birds with one stone, so to speak. It was much appreciated! 😄
Great job. Loved your Australian series most
Thanks a lot! It means a lot
To me! Cheers!
Wonderful video my brother very educational..100%
Mount Druitt isn’t usually thought of as a tourist destination. Just in case someone’s planning a trip and watching this. Staying in Sydney and didn’t show the beautiful harbour and beaches, botanical gardens and Taronga 🤷♀️ you would have seen lots of cockatoos and galahs around Sydney city, but you dont have to travel far outside Sydney City to see Australian animals living their wild life.
The only tip you need to give in Australia is be good to your mother and and listen to your father. 😎
Next time you come to Oz , get away from the cities and head for the smaller towns .
The Aussies will talk to you out there because they are real and not immersed in themselves .
Go to a pub and meet the locals , and you’ll have mates who will look after you and show you around .
It’ll be like going back in time when people will just be themselves , warts and all .
They’ll like that you’re out there “ having a go !”
Glad you enjoyed Sydney, next time try to get around to smaller towns around north or south coastal areas from Sydney, yes Sydney is very expensive to live in, it’s ridiculous, overall I’m glad you enjoyed👌🏾🙏🏾😊
Australia is also the only place where its coat of arms can be found in its menu! haha
Oh I didn’t even think of that 😆
Australia - Kangaroo.
Denmark - Swan.
Finland - Bear.
Saudi Arabia - Camel.
Sweden - Elk.
Spain- Bull.
Japan - Carp.
Blue Marlin - Bahamas.
and many others :)
Peace
Great video Evain, thank you!
It is very simple. Australia is a continent because it is a large body of land surrounded by water. It is ALSO a country because it is an independently governed area of land. One doe not negate the other. We just happen to be the only country that is also a continent.
Australia is the smallest continent and the largest island. In addidion to the mainland there is also the state of Tasmania and a number of external territories such as Norfolk island and a large portion of Antartica that are also Australian.
I just found your vlogs and your channel is very entertaining and funny 😂 Will you be going back to nz to film anytime soon?
Great, great video my brotha!! if you don’t mind, what’s the name of that intro song I need to work out to it?.lol
Australia is a country because it has its own government. Australia is a continent because it covers its own whole tectonic plate . Australia is an Island ,a country And a continent .😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you great point for black traveler.
Why is it confusing that Australia is both a continent and a country? Those birds are pronounced eem-you, not ee-moo. Thanks for your vlogs, Ivain - great work.
That's a great observation about classism rather than racism - you're absolutely right.
I always enjoy your content.....My dream is to tour the world like you
No place on earth better than Australia. Gods country 🙏
Australia sits on its own continental shelf, (the mainland of Australia and Tasmania, and various islands). So it is a continent.
The country that occupies the entire continental landmass, is called the Commonwealth of Australia.
I'm surprised that you can not hold the Koalas anymore. That must be a new thing .
Hey Ivain that first Animal you hand feed was a wallaby not a kangaroo . Wallaby has the white stripe up their cheeks
When I saw you were in Australia, I checked out your channel, it's really cool and I'll be staying and watching more of your adventures. Maybe next time you*ll come to Melbourne, although contrary to what those Sudanese guys were saying about Melbourne, I don't know where they heard that stuff, but 50% of it was totally untrue. I'm really sorry about your nasty experience at the airport in New Zealand, cheers Rose
Thanks so much for watching! I’ll be in Melbourne next time for sure. Thanks so much for the support!
Correct! Australia is both a country and a continent. It is large enough to have tropical rainforest, 7 hot deserts, Mediterranean climates in Perth and Adelaide, temperate forests, savannah, and cool temperate areas like Tasmania, and south eastern Victoria.
We are an Island as well.. You are Welcomed back anytime. ..
Australia is a country and a continent in the region of Oceania
Sounds good! Thanks 🙏🏽
Australia Continent & Island & one Country! Australia is one of the 7 continents, it is the smallest continent but the largest Island on earth. Snd the only continent that is also one country.
Australia - A continent for a nation and a nation for a continent. The only one on the planet
Hi Ivain, I was born, lived and worked the majority of my life right in Sydney .. and gotta say you were so wrong, the bird life in Sydney city is crazy. Also Australians by nature, all Aussies, dont like talking about themselves to strangers, and asking people about their personal lives, wages etc, is simply seen as bad manners, we're friendly but not huggers. As I commented to one of your other videos .. which I've enjoyed by the way .. I've travelled all my life and every country has different cultures, and honestly Ivain you cant neet and know people in a couple of days. And truly, most Aussies have never tasted kangaroo. 💕
I liked this page. I will be following you to New Zealand. The country of my birth. I hope you enjoy it.
Omg to NZ. You better not go to Auckland and say you’ve been to NZ.
You did a wonderful job, as a black traveler for people tp view and reference.
Where do you get the idea that we eat kangaroos "to control the population"?? Kangaroos are mainly made into dog and cat food. Most Australians, apart from Aboriginals who hunt them, do not eat Kangaroo. Or they might try it only occasionally. Only farmers think kangaroos are pests, but they have taken the kangaroos land. The bird is pronounced EEEM-you, not ee-MOO. Glad you had a good time. You're wrong about social class. Some people have a chip on their shoulder. I am poor and was poor in Sydney many years ago. Never felt a class difference. Sydney is one of the most expensive cities in the world. You should go to smaller towns, beaches, mountains next time. We have snow fields, too.
Thanks so much for watching! Australia is amazing and I can’t wait to come back!
Sydney is a colonial city if you want to see Australia get out of the city mate and visit rural Australia and speak to real Australians not foreigners who this country home Lol you lack real knowledge and information 😂
Kangaroo meat is readily available in a lot of supermarkets and has been in restaurants for as long as I can remember. Kangaroo tail soup was the first to be introduced. Now grilled and also in pies...
Sorry but that isn't correct. Kangaroo meat is eaten regularly by Australian's. We have kangaroo farming for meat for human consumption.
@@davidhandson2429 that’s exactly what I thought 😂
That Blonde has two nice teddy bears,wow .😜😋🤣
Very good video!!!
Thanks so much for watching! I appreciate that!
Australia is the smallest of the world’s seven continents and is the world’s largest island.It is a country with one government.
Continental plates. Australia is in its own continental plate
True true!
I love your shirt, brother!
Thanks a lot bro!
I'm going to show my ignorance as a fat, hairy white dude from Australia, but is it Senegalese? I'm fucking way off aren't I?
@@Alex.The.Lionnnnn nah you aren’t. It’s just African
@@IvainTures hahahaha you sound like one of those Americans that gets stopped in the street and asked on camera "can you name one country for me?". They always say "like, eurooooope? Orrrrr maybe like africaaaaa?". 😂😂😂 When I was a kid I had a bunch of shirts like that from my south african step mother. People would say "where are you from?" Like the pure genius I was I'd say "Australia" So then they'd say, where did you get that beautiful shirt from? So as a little kid you'd reply "my mum" 😂😂😂 Then finally, "where is your mum from?" And then it got properly confusing when you'd say "Rhodesia". They say "that's not a country" and as a little lid you're just like "that's where she's from 🤷♂️". I do appreciate the arguably very funny situation where the whitest white kid that has ever whited is wearing african clothes and saying "my mum is from Rhodesia" in what was basically thick south african / black african mum voice". Hey that's what Australia is all about. Holy shit have I laughed about it a lot since then. 😂😂 I just realised, she's saffie/Zimbabwean and the dearest person to me on earth. Maybe the food has something to do with it hahahahaha why was she always trying to feed me 8000 times a day? She trying to make a little butter ball kid? 😂😂😂
💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿 dope.
Thanks a lot for watching!
Did u get to see any drop bears? Lol
A country? A continent? LOl you will find a variety of opinions on that. I say we are the largest island, a country and a continent. Yeah man, lets have it all! 😂 Oceania is the region and that includes Australasia (Aus and NZ) Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia. Interestingly enough Polynesia includes Hawaii, it isn't part of North America as one would assume.
I'm from Queensland (QLD) you can pay a little extra at parks here and hold and be photographed with a koala. I didn't know that wasn't the case down in NewSouth.
Next time you come here you must come to QLD. We are the tourist state, the Sunshine state. Gold coast with its theme parks, Sunshine coast, Great Barrier Reef and all the beautiful Whitsunday islands. The most beautiful beaches in the world.
Did u go to featherdale
50million grey roos populate oz. Yes they are a pest. The big red roos arent in as large a number.
It is an island continent.
It's a pity that you didn't get to pat a koala but I am glad they are putting them first (ones which have been born in zoos may be less stressed with people than rescues). Sydney is a very fast pace city, faster paced then other Aussie cities (and less easy going) so I'm not surprised you had trouble stopping and talking to people there (Sydney is my less favorite Aussie city due to the pace of it and the roads). Emu pronunciation isn't like 'oo' as in 'moo' but 'ew' as in 'new' like E-mew.
If you come back to Australia, check out other Aussie states eg Queensland (not just Brisbane but also the Sunshine coast and Gold Coast there). If you want something like wildlife you could also visit somewhere like Kangaroo Island in Sth Australia and spending some time there, if you go there staying in the National Park caravan park is great.. a walk to the beach in the National park and you can also see wild Australia sea lions there (Kangaroo Island (SA), there are wallabies all over kangaroo Island. There and Queensland are my favourite Australian places. or go for a dawn or dusk walk/tour somewhere like Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary (Sth Australia) so you can see also things like potoroos, bilbies, possible platypus in a wild setting etc
When feeding animals, try not to let the food in up in their eyes, that would have probably hurt the animal some. I was a bit shocked how hungry the animals there seemed to be, the way that kangaroo was grabbing, he was very hungry same with the others. Most places give pellets to feed the animals. Silkie chickens which are quite common in Australia make great pets (I used to have one), they are known to be a breed of chickens which are very gentle too.
Thanks so much for the feedback! I appreciate that. And good point about how hungry they seemed to be. People feed them nonstop and still they were acting that way. I will be back for sure. I enjoyed Australia a lot. It’s an amazing country. It’s so big, there’s a lot to see! Thanks so much for watching!
As an Australian it’s a country new Zealand and papa New Guinea is technically part of the continent
To clarify on the kangaroo population, there are 4 species that are each numbered in the millions. They are the ones that we eat, they're hunted for population control under strict licencing laws and regulations - which means no one can just go out and hunt them on a whim, because even though they are hunted, it's restricted, monitored and controlled, because they are still a protected native animal. There are also other species of kangaroo and wallaby that are not allowed to be harmed due to having lower and at-risk populations.
I'd be inclined to say that it's not racism or classism that separates people in Australia but the attitude of the individual that does it. Some people don't want to be part of society, they don't want to work, they don't want to do anything other than mope around in their own misery and blame everyone and everything else for their state of existence. Others simply don't know how to fit in. Those that reach out and ask for help will get it, and they can learn and move on and get a life and live well here. The secret to success in Australia is to treat other people as your equal no matter what their circumstances are. We don't judge people based on their skin colour, their job title, or how much money they have in the bank. We will judge you based on how you treat other people, including the lowest of us. Treat the homeless person and the high ranking politician with exactly the same respect and you'll get respect in Australia. Behave as if you're better than others due to your job, education, money, or fame, and you won't get very far at all.
Americans don’t want to come to Australia because of the wildlife. While I don’t want to go to the US because of the people.
Bro you are so close to Papua new Guinea.... please come
I wish! I will eventually get there. Thanks so much! You live there?
@@IvainTures bro I'm from png but currently living in Sydney..I wish to met up with you
It sits on the tip of northern Australia
Australia is a continent that is made of five hundred tribal nations.🙏
You made that video with an American background, or are you in the US?
Castlereagh Street is pronounced “castle-ray”. It’s an Irish surname but I don’t know much about Mr Castlereagh.
@michaelrogers2080 Thanks! 😃🇦🇺
U can hold a Koala in Brisbane
I live at Sydney 23 years , I only saw kangaroo at zoo🤣🤣
😆 Koala Park is really nice. 😊 you should check it out when you can. Thanks a lot for watching!
we are also an Island
That goat would eat the paper bag if you let it.
