      @@blindfreddy9157 It is still a flawed method to reduce smoking, every study has shown the best method is reduction in places to smoke, a large majority of smokers will forgo the new car, or new tv in favor of smoking, many will use more credit facilities to buy expensive items as they have no money due to their smoking, end of the day most long term smokers will still pay and in the long run the policy does more harm to their family life than anything else. As a non smoker I do not care that much but I do get their point, if it is legal to smoke how is it legal to have a tax 200% more than any other taxable item in the country, it is wrong, if they want people to stop just ban it, it is more about revenue than anything else if they keep going the way they are.

      I live in Rural Australia. I see snakes each year. Always potentially deadly ones. But only a couple of times a year and I have never had an agressive one. I had a tiger snake in my garden in spring and I passed a king brown snake sleeping on the road yesterday while on my pushbike. He stayed sleeping and I ignored him. Neither of us even got a fright. There are many more snakes around than I see because their instinct is to hide from us where possible.

Plus I don't think people are aware how many tiger snakes and brown snakes there are in our suburban parks.

    Alcohol and cigarettes are highly taxed in Australia, in an effort to try and deter people from drinking excessively and smoking because it is bad for your health. As a result people think we are expensive on those two commodities.
    Also we pay decent wages, as a rule we don’t tip unless we have had superior service, it is not a general thing. In cafes and such there may be a tipping jar near the cash register for you to place your money in. However as we are quickly becoming a cashless society, no doubt this too, will become a thing of the past.

    Australia is a big place, it can be quite different, particularly between city & city, or city to country. Some places are more open to visitors/tourist/migrants than others, so how friendly or suspicious locals are can be quite different.
    Often people underestimate distances.
    The comment about costs... Some things are more expensive due to transport costs & we have minimum wage, cigarettes & alcohol are more expensive as taxes are used to discourage spending.
    Backpacks also need to know their employment rights as there are far too many being exploited - there's a legal minimum wage you're entitled to.

    As a foreigner I studied American English growing up and has been living in Australia for 6 years with graduation of a master degree in Adelaide, I'm still struggling with Australian English. It's not because I am reluctant to learn it but really hard to find a way the get by. The first 3 yrs I held a working holiday visa and did have some local friends even though my English was generally poorer than now. Whereas when I decided to study for a master degree in Australia so that I get a chance to immigrate here, I hadn't known that my program has zero local but half Indian and half Chinese. There is also far less Australian English content online for us to study ourselves, most of them are American series or non-fiction books written by an American. However, I am now still trying to watch some Australian series with subtitles hoping that will help the communication in terms of listening and idioms.

      That way the man gets to go to a family camp rather than the single male ones that offer less benefits.

    Its is true when they say our hospitality is terrible as l have been over seas and that was the thing tnat stood out more than anything thing else and I am talking about hotels and motels services and I would recommend you go out to the less commercial places as they are more layback like most of the Aussie and they welcome people with pride and like to tell you the stories of Australia and sorry to the working people in the motels and hotels business but that what l experience cheers LoL 😜
