I had visited almost 60 countries before I finally got round to Australia and NZ. One of the biggest mistakes of my life. I should have chosen them first because they are, without any doubt, the best two countries I have ever been to, by a country mile. The people, the flora and fauna, the weather, the space, the laid back culture. I could live there tomorrow in a heartbeat.
When you think Australia has gone down the shitter - you get to see it through visitors eyes and realise others in the World appreciate the treasures we take for granted - bit of a wake-up call. Thanks for that.
born and living here is different to a quick visit go ask a few 30+ year old Australians see the response you get tourist a fed the bullshit floating on the surface.
I love my country australia and proud to be an aussie.. we're younger than most and we're still learning..hopefully we're getting it right for the most part .
@@doseofboost4509 im a 30+ aussie and damn proud to be one..if ppl have a prob who are born here and cant see then beauty, then they can go to many other countries..
Thinking that your country is heading into a bad direction is pretty common across the globe. People tend to hyperfocus on bad things and get paranoid. I don't know much about Australia, but if Europe could handle being the epicenter of ww2 and come out ok, Australia should be able to handle whatever struggles it faces rn. In my country Australia have a really good reputation. Sry for bad english.
I visited Australia from my hometown of Washington DC in Nov 2019. It really is a beautiful country and I felt completely safe any where I went.. Especially loved Sydney and the Great Barrier Reef ...and the kangaroos!!
Still on my "bucket list" for foreign travel, as much as is travel back to many other places in Europe and Canada... Americans like me love Australia and definitely want to come and spend time in January and February and maybe some of March there.
January - March if you are comfortable with really, really hot, dry weather 40+ degrees Celsius. Travel up North of Tropic can be a bit hit and miss with the Wet Season. October, November might suit North Americans better.
Yes, I've been overseas and Australia is very beautiful, you must hire a car and head for the central coast of NSW, the rivers, the forests and the ocean with village towns t'out, don't forget the Sydney Harbour with all the cliffs, amazing, in saying that every State has it's beauty. Love to see more people visit, the Tableland near Cain's, such mountainous country just gorgeous, you can say it's expensive but you also can do it on the cheap. Melbourne for its art culture, Sydney for its cosmopolitan, Brisbane a growing City but has great nightlife and not far from beautiful beaches with that white sand, Adelaide and Perth travel to the greatest vineyards, Tasmania very similar to NZ, beautiful rivers and with a charm, musn't forget those beaches, yes we have it all. Come to our shores you won't regret it, most people will give you a helping hand, and if you feel sick just call in to a free hospital. I could go on but won't bore you. I have travelled and manage to see beauty in all other countries but came to the conclusion we have it all in Australia.
@@Name-jw4sj I don't think he meant it like that. I think he was referring it as a way to insert humour into a more serious interview video whereas in most interview videos people comment on things they've observed in the video while this one points out some irony into what he said with a slight jab and joke that ran past you.
In the first half of the 20 th century, the drinking age in Australia depended upon local jurisdiction and ranged from 18 to 21. However, during the Vietnam War, the age was reduced to 18 on the grounds that a person who could be conscripted to fight and die for their country should also have the right to drink alcohol.
@@WelcomeTo Glad to help Love your videos. I remember when I first left school women weren't allowed in the public bar and if you were with a lady you had to go to the " lounge bar "
@@marcusfox2443 Even crazier is that there is a place in Brisbane City called the Queensland Club that is still men only, and Tattersall's Club also in Brisbane only just allowed women to join last year after they had a member vote... but it wasn't a clear consensus (1,405 members voted to allow women and 1,368 voted against). It's quite surprising to see in the modern day, and it might be an interesting topic to make a video about, though there might be more to it than I'm aware of. But despite that I do feel that Australia is one of the more progressive countries in the world.
@@WelcomeTo wow that's a close vote ,I vaguely remember it on the news. It certainly does seem surprising but I think it's probably the death knell of the old boy's clubs ,thanks for the info. Yes do a bit of research and see what turns up, could be interesting. I'm in Townsville so I see the Brisbane news. I agree Australia is one of the more progressive countries although some Scandinavian countries seem a little more so. My older brother's name came up in the Vietnam birthday draft and he was due to go over there but fortunately Australia pulled out of the war and he never ended up going . At least he could have a beer lol. Interesting to think about what my generation worried about compared to todays teenagers and the struggles of the modern world.
I am from Sweden and never been to Australia although I am thinking to go there and study! The only thing I have difficulties with is the accent, need to pay more attention to the things they say so its easier to understand americans! Need to stop australians every once in a while and say "what the fuck did you just say there?" 😂
Haha! I am an Australian and I can totally understand why our accent is difficult for you! Sometimes, especially when people speak quickly, even we struggle with it! Luckily, in the more metropolitan areas (including suburbs near the cities) the accent is less relaxed and so is easier to understand. I'd say just remember the 'r' isn't really pronounced (unless it's at the end of a word before another word with a vowel at the start, e.g,. 'car is'), and try to listen past the mumbling sound, and you'll be okay. Besides, people often take care to speak slower/clearer when talking to a foreigner, because we know our accent is really confusing. (I would have said that like 'Besides, people offen tayke kehh to speak slowah/clearah when torking to a foreignah, becoz we kno owh accent iz really confusing.') But your English seems damn good, so I'm sure you'll be fine at navigating our accent once you're exposed to it a bit more. I've always wanted to visit Sweden tbh. What's it like there for a tourist?
@@alishajade5621 Haha thanks for some valuable advice! I'm sure I will need them 😂 Yeah Sweden is nice, especially Stockholm where I live its very beautiful now when we have our summertime (thats another difference between Sweden and Australia we have summer now and you have in december - january) Anyhow I can truly recommend Stockholm if you ever visit Sweden, my guess is that between may - september is the best time. Lots of nice shopping, attractions, parks and lakes :) Then we have much forest and lakes and some other nice cities as well ( some nice, some not but that's my personal opinion;) ) anyhow you are welcome to visit!
You'll find if you come here you'll adjust very quickly to the accent. The reason why you'd find the American accent easier to understand is because you've been exposed to it more. But our brains are quite amazing at adapting. After a short time being surrounded by another accent, your brain switches to that accent being the normal. Then what is hilarious... Is when you listen to your own accent it's quite shocking. I experienced this in Canada. Where I got used to the accent and stopped noticing it. And then the Australian election happened so Mum and I watched the Australian news. And we were flabbergasted by our own accent.
We have a lot of the upsides of American culture, without a lot of the downsides. Its not too hard to see in the cities, but much harder to see that influence out Bush where I grew up
Lot of Australians HATE EVERYTHING about beer & drink fuck all (alcohol), not very often and even then, only one or TWO drinks. And I'm 63, from country WA, living in Perth,& born in Ireland. The drinking culture is there .. but overblown. The alcoholics make up for everyone else. They drink like fish.
@@goeast12 And you're still triggered over nothing 2 years later. You're a whining snowflake who thinks every-one should drop to their knees because you're American. Get over yourself.
"I like the space, you can get lost in the countryside if you like" YES, tourist do get "lost" in the countryside but I'm pretty sure they don't like it!!!
The gold coast does have good weather but there isn't as much to do as you think, the current at the main beach is pretty dangerous, rent can be rather expensive and the nightlife scene is pretty cooked tbh 😅😂
I have lived in Australia for 73.5 years. You would not BELIEVE how fast I can move if there is a Huntsman in the house! HATE them! Best day EVER when a relative (by marriage) held one in his hand to prove they are harmless. It bit him! 😂
I think he hasnt even seen a spider hes just regurgitating stereotypes. Lived here my whole life and can count on one hand how many times ive seen a spider
I haven been in Australia for about 1 month++ and best thing is the nature. Very beautiful beaches and sceneries. However the living cost is very expensive though.
Oz has lots of different climates. Northern Oz is actually in the tropics, while down south there are alpine regions where it snows in winter. It really varies.
4:29 lmaooooooo 'Some of the nicest people you'll ever meet' right as that bird in the background gives the camera the finger. Hahahaha fuckin yep that's Australia
I’ve always wanted to go to Australia but have been terrified of the spiders I was stocking Australian licorice candy at work the other day and there was a spider in the taped shut box😐
I’m from Australia I have NEVER and I mean never seen a wild snake before except a dead one on the side of the street the spiders are in corners and easy to see nothing to worry about
How I wish I can be in your lands soon, mate! I recently discovered this channel and it just made me got more anxious to go there as soon as I can. I'm from Mexico, a very distinct place in comparison to your country in so many levels. It isn't easy to say this but here is more like what they call as "third world", and I think Australia is the very first as I can see on this great window to the universe so called internet. But, blablabla... Rocknroll and see you soon there, papi! Keep seeding peace between nations and individuals. Cheers for that.🤘😎🍀💯
It sucks that we become numb to good things. Most accurate saying ever - You can have too much of a good thing. I've lived in Burleigh waters for a little over 12 years now and I'm sick of it here, I hate the muggy months, beaches are boring and I almost never go there anymore. Almost all of my time is spent in my air conditioned room on my computer. I sometimes walk Cavill Ave on the big nights (Australia day, new years eve, etc). One thing that remains true is that some shops in surfers paradise have the best fish and chips on the planet! my subjective opinion of course, though every time I'm in surfers it's tradition now that I get fish and chips and I've not yet been let down, always consistently awesome.
Spiders : as a native animal of Australia, we are going to greet the tourists and introduce Australia to them! *Tourists came* Spiders : hello mate, welcome to Austral--- Tourist : BURN THEM THEY'RE TRYING TO KILL US ALL!!!! Spiders : why are people so mean to us 😭😭😭😭
Although the nature is beautiful and people are extremely friendly, Australia is behind God's back...."Down under" as it is well said by them. It is isolated. People who grew up there are not even aware of it, as I experienced, they think AU is the middle of the world:) And the country itself is big, you drive for 10 hours from one place to another. Here, in Europe, everything is close, I love the diversity, you drive two hours, and find yourself in a completely different nation, culture.
Us Australians practically live in Jumanji because almost everything tries to kill you especially when your in the country side. Unless if you’re careful
I am in my 60s, living in rural Victoria beside the Murray River. We have a shack 34 minutes drive from home and since I retired I spend usually 7-10 days at a time there five or six times a year, just me and my two border collie X kelpie dogs. I have been walking in the bush almost daily for 40+ years and I have only ever come across three snakes. (We have chooks and my hubby sees on average four or five in our backyard every year but I have never seen one.) Also despite travelling frequently on bush tracks I HAD never hit a kangaroo until about two years ago. The second one was in a 60km zone kms from the centre of town. (Not happy Jan!) The main rule of thumb in Australia is to just "let them be free." Our animals are as frightened of us as we are of them and problems usually only occur when we cross paths!
I've seen a lot of red backs, couple of brown snakes and kangaroos. I'd say the most dangerous ones are the roos, they love the hop in front of your car from wherever they are hiding or even if they are 50 m from the road, they'll rush to cross in front of you as you're passing. I would only like roos if they were fly eaters which they're not, yet...
@@JuanPablo-kj9dg I don't know if this is true or an Urban Myth. My sister lives in Bendigo and RACV thought there was an excessive amount of claims about cars hitting 'roos. Apparently RACV sent an investigator to Bendigo but he hit a kangaroo on his way there up there. It seems a bit sus though. What's the point of sending anyone to physically investigate? The Skippies don't listen. They think jumping in front of cars is our national pass time. I've hit two roos in 40 years of driving ...and the first one was at Huntly on the outskirts of Bendigo! I could have saved the RACV bloke a trip to investigate! Have a good one!
Awesome. I wanna go! However, I cannot even afford to fly from the west coast to the east coast. I hope someday Australia will have marketing campaign to bring over Americans who cannot afford a trip to Aussie. Today, I asked if someone was Aussie, but he said he was English. I thought he had an outback voice buy apparently I was wrong. Lol.
Yepp , they're what we all refer to them as Boomers. They're just so stiff and so formal in the video as well, when the actual truth is here in India we been drinking from the age of 15 😂 and they don't even know. Now ofcourse were grown-ups and make sure the next younger generation that it's okay to try a few as long as they don't disrespect or do any harm to the others! Cheers lad 🍻
You don't ask random people questions. The great majority of people that you ask are a similar age to yourself, and that me lad, is far far from random.
I swear when tourists think of Australia, they only think of the coast between Brisbane and Melbourne. No tourist ever says let's go to perth and tbh, i haven't been over east but from what I've heard, perth is way better than Melbourne and Sydney combined. Come to perth, we have so many beaches better than Bondi. OMG thats another conversation, people thinking Bondi is the best beach in Australia which is not true. Go to esperance or exmouth or anywhere on the wa coast and it puts Bondi to shame
I completely agree. I lived in Perth until age 8 and then we moved to the east coast, and of course we frequent the beaches there. Still visit Perth every few years and their beaches are my favourite. And having travelled all around Australia for four months, it saddens me that tourists and even Australians are missing out on so much in this country.
I agree I am from America and if I had the opportunity I would choose Perth. I have heard all of Australia is great but was always attracted to the Western side especially Perth. I have heard great things from people who have visited
I'm a Australian yes we have deadly spiders the Sydney funnel web, red back' s and white tail spider's lots of very deadly snake,s fresh and salt water crocodiles, stingers that is a very small jelly fish that can kill you, blue ringed octopus the list goes on and on plants that sting you with thousands of tiny needle fibers, if you come to Australia and go north Queensland the crocodiles are in the water ways but do come to Australia it's a awesome place.😁👍
Oh and one last thing when we had floods and the river banks broke we had bull sharks swimming down the main st of Toowoomba past the butcher shop that's a suburb of Brisbane, this is for real 2010 floods

I’m from Australia I have NEVER and I mean never seen a wild snake before except a dead one on the side of the street the spiders are in corners and easy to see nothing to worry about
Really? I see king browns and red bellies all the time out in the bush, same with huntsmans and trapdoors 😂 😂
@@TA-ls5nr Yes, but as you said, you are out in the bush.
Lady at 2:37 killed it! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
How I wish I can be in your lands soon, mate!
I recently discovered this channel and it just made me got more anxious to go there as soon as I can.
I'm from Mexico, a very distinct place in comparison to your country in so many levels. It isn't easy to say this but here is more like what they call as "third world", and I think Australia is the very first as I can see on this great window to the universe so called internet.
But, blablabla... Rocknroll and see you soon there, papi! Keep seeding peace between nations and individuals. Cheers for that.🤘😎🍀💯
Every Australian knows, we have won the lottery of life.
Yeah, true. It makes me angry when they take their country for granted
@RyanLye1975 how do you know? I bet your one of those Australians who've never been further than Bali !
4:10 sounds EXACTLY LIKE Harold Baldr wowwwwww
The guy with the grey beard turned around when the Indian couple said 18 is way too young drink😅
parisd0g 72 it’s funny that she says that considering they marry off their children at 12 !
It sucks that we become numb to good things. Most accurate saying ever - You can have too much of a good thing. I've lived in Burleigh waters for a little over 12 years now and I'm sick of it here, I hate the muggy months, beaches are boring and I almost never go there anymore. Almost all of my time is spent in my air conditioned room on my computer. I sometimes walk Cavill Ave on the big nights (Australia day, new years eve, etc). One thing that remains true is that some shops in surfers paradise have the best fish and chips on the planet! my subjective opinion of course, though every time I'm in surfers it's tradition now that I get fish and chips and I've not yet been let down, always consistently awesome.
I felt like that when I lived in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. I left when I was 30 and 43 years later LOVE the Canberra area still.
You can have too much of a good thing, but australia isn't as perfect as people think it is. You were just really good at getting what you wanted
*sigh* the problem is they are in a high populated area so it's not as bad as it is everywhere else
The reason everything closes early is it’s safer as if they didn’t there would be more idots roaming the street and more crime happens at night time
The reason everything closes early is that our labour laws allow workers to have a life.
You never ... see.. the drop bears..
But you will... feel.. the last drop bear you meet.. >: )
Nothing wrong with the drinking age... *hic* 😝😝😝
So that bloke's been to Antarctica. Cool.
THE TOURIST DESTINATION WHERE YOU CAN COME, BUT NEVER LEAVE !!!
Spiders : as a native animal of Australia, we are going to greet the tourists and introduce Australia to them!
*Tourists came*
Spiders : hello mate, welcome to Austral---
Tourist : BURN THEM THEY'RE TRYING TO KILL US ALL!!!!
Spiders : why are people so mean to us 😭😭😭😭
As someone whom has started drinking since 14, I can say that the suggestion to change drinking till 21 can git farrrrked!
See we say there’s scary animal’s to scare people away because if everyone new how good it was everyone would live here
EXACTLY!
Very pleased quite a few made the point there are not dangerous animals everywhere trying to eat you.
Thank you random Swede for validating that Melbourne gets fckin cold in the winter!
I hated the guy who said that he was thankful that he hadn’t seen any drop bears. I swear there are so many Americans who believe in Drop bears
Boy: spider are scary spiders: yes shall be afraid of me human
Although the nature is beautiful and people are extremely friendly, Australia is behind God's back...."Down under" as it is well said by them. It is isolated. People who grew up there are not even aware of it, as I experienced, they think AU is the middle of the world:) And the country itself is big, you drive for 10 hours from one place to another. Here, in Europe, everything is close, I love the diversity, you drive two hours, and find yourself in a completely different nation, culture.
The things they don’t hear when we’re in our cars
Love that last guy :)
Us Australians practically live in Jumanji because almost everything tries to kill you especially when your in the country side. Unless if you’re careful
Really depends on where you live, but overall I slightly agree.
I am in my 60s, living in rural Victoria beside the Murray River. We have a shack 34 minutes drive from home and since I retired I spend usually 7-10 days at a time there five or six times a year, just me and my two border collie X kelpie dogs. I have been walking in the bush almost daily for 40+ years and I have only ever come across three snakes. (We have chooks and my hubby sees on average four or five in our backyard every year but I have never seen one.) Also despite travelling frequently on bush tracks I HAD never hit a kangaroo until about two years ago. The second one was in a 60km zone kms from the centre of town. (Not happy Jan!) The main rule of thumb in Australia is to just "let them be free." Our animals are as frightened of us as we are of them and problems usually only occur when we cross paths!
I've seen a lot of red backs, couple of brown snakes and kangaroos. I'd say the most dangerous ones are the roos, they love the hop in front of your car from wherever they are hiding or even if they are 50 m from the road, they'll rush to cross in front of you as you're passing. I would only like roos if they were fly eaters which they're not, yet...
@@JuanPablo-kj9dg I don't know if this is true or an Urban Myth. My sister lives in Bendigo and RACV thought there was an excessive amount of claims about cars hitting 'roos. Apparently RACV sent an investigator to Bendigo but he hit a kangaroo on his way there up there. It seems a bit sus though. What's the point of sending anyone to physically investigate? The Skippies don't listen. They think jumping in front of cars is our national pass time. I've hit two roos in 40 years of driving ...and the first one was at Huntly on the outskirts of Bendigo! I could have saved the RACV bloke a trip to investigate! Have a good one!
You mean like the Red Bellied Black snake that was in my kitchen? I just called the snake catcher! $70 fixed it. She'll be right mate.
Some of em say they ain't gonna get eatin wait till they go to the bush mate
ay AY... leave our drinking age along
ok u cant compare california and vegas to australia dude
4:50 news to me but cool to hear
Hey good on ya mate ! ..but then does anyone know what's the song's name ..which is been played in the end of the clip
The song is called Way Up by Hartley. It’s a royalty free song I licensed from Premiumbeat 😊 www.premiumbeat.com/royalty-free-tracks/way-up
@@WelcomeTo Oh alright thanks for the recommendation mate!
Awesome. I wanna go! However, I cannot even afford to fly from the west coast to the east coast. I hope someday Australia will have marketing campaign to bring over Americans who cannot afford a trip to Aussie.
Today, I asked if someone was Aussie, but he said he was English. I thought he had an outback voice buy apparently I was wrong. Lol.
Haha, I guess English accents can sound similar to us!
And hopefully! 🤞 But in the meantime, you can experience Australia through this channel! 😛
Let’s swap places I’ve never been out of Australia
Just fly to japan then across to Australia. You can stay overnight in a hotel at the narita airport.
When in the USA I continually get told I am "British" but my husband is easily recognised as an Aussie. Apparently a good school is my burden!
21 drinking age 🤔 but okay to die at 18 as a soldier and be treated like an adult in that respect. Just a thought!
Don't worry about ... they are typical india parents....
Yepp , they're what we all refer to them as Boomers. They're just so stiff and so formal in the video as well, when the actual truth is here in India we been drinking from the age of 15 😂 and they don't even know. Now ofcourse were grown-ups and make sure the next younger generation that it's okay to try a few as long as they don't disrespect or do any harm to the others! Cheers lad 🍻
3:22 these must be fun at parties :p
You don't ask random people questions. The great majority of people that you ask are a similar age to yourself, and that me lad, is far far from random.
Niice
Ethan Hargreaves aww Ethan
Niiiiiiicceeee
Ask australians what they think about cricket ?
Cricket isn't rlly a thing for us, we r more on the football side lmao
I love cricket
Australian since birth, sixth generation. Cricket is SO boring.
We like soccer more
Very nice my friend ❤️
sad part is, most of locals dont want influx of tourists
some Aussie please adopt me! sheeesh
I swear when tourists think of Australia, they only think of the coast between Brisbane and Melbourne. No tourist ever says let's go to perth and tbh, i haven't been over east but from what I've heard, perth is way better than Melbourne and Sydney combined. Come to perth, we have so many beaches better than Bondi. OMG thats another conversation, people thinking Bondi is the best beach in Australia which is not true. Go to esperance or exmouth or anywhere on the wa coast and it puts Bondi to shame
I've been to Lancelin area and the beaches are beyond this world. Lonely, pure white sand and cristal clear water, amazing.
I completely agree. I lived in Perth until age 8 and then we moved to the east coast, and of course we frequent the beaches there. Still visit Perth every few years and their beaches are my favourite. And having travelled all around Australia for four months, it saddens me that tourists and even Australians are missing out on so much in this country.
I agree I am from America and if I had the opportunity I would choose Perth. I have heard all of Australia is great but was always attracted to the Western side especially Perth. I have heard great things from people who have visited
WA has some of the best beaches I’ve ever seen anywhere in the world.
I will be 74 this year and have spent time in Europe, Asia, USA and Canada - but not Perth. Why would I bother to go there?
That was nice.
Definately agree very American. Nz british
1:57 " normal"
Brazil 💝💝😍
That was great
the spiders are not scary i grabbed 1 by a leg lol
I'm a Australian yes we have deadly spiders the Sydney funnel web, red back' s and white tail spider's lots of very deadly snake,s fresh and salt water crocodiles, stingers that is a very small jelly fish that can kill you, blue ringed octopus the list goes on and on plants that sting you with thousands of tiny needle fibers, if you come to Australia and go north Queensland the crocodiles are in the water ways but do come to Australia it's a awesome place.😁👍
Oh and one last thing when we had floods and the river banks broke we had bull sharks swimming down the main st of Toowoomba past the butcher shop that's a suburb of Brisbane, this is for real 2010 floods
OZ has loads of space like America does, which is why I think it can sometimes seem similar.
God forbid!
American population 300 million. Australia population 26 million. More room for everyone😁
Oh god. Snakes and bloody spiders. Wow many do they actually see 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️. Gees.
🧚🏻♂️🌌🦅
Snakes and spiders everywhere ? You sure you are in Australia ?
It’s ridiculous! Don’t understand why people focus in this when you rarely see these things
"De girls and de bitch"
outro song pls
The song is called Way Up by Hartley. It’s a royalty free song I licensed from Premiumbeat, but you can listen to the full song on their website 😊

"best things are the girls and the bitches"
ugh... kind of the same thing mate 😉
I'm Italian... I'm so sorry... I think he meant beaches... It's hard for us to pronounce these two words correctly 😂
When will these tourists realize that Aussies do not have accents.
Then what’s that thing called the way you sound?
The girl at 4:29 in the background
Did she just flip the bird?
AND HE SAID THEYRE NICE
Haha. Young frizzy haired South African dude has been here three days, doesn't know shit and hasn't seen a single spider.
WELCOME to the Gold Coast, Australia's wort place.
Wort?
Hayret bizden kimse yok
