    My advice is that Australia is huge, most Australians have only seen a small proportion of Australia, that’s how big it is, so expect to see some great things in one or two states on a holiday, not the whole place 😊.

    I'm an Aussie and I agree with nearly all the tips.
    If you are making the journey to our beautiful shores, come for at least a month! Crossing Australia is like crossing into many different countries, except the people are pretty much the same wherever you go. Friendly, helpful and happy...mostly 😉
    There is sooo much to do Down Under that a month would be pushing it... Many visits is the best idea. Enjoy every moment! Ask people for info, don't be shy.
    PS Please learn to swim before venturing into our pristine beaches 🎉

    If you want to take on the outback, like the actual outback. PREPARE! A britts camper by itself won’t cut it. Take at least enough drinking water for a week and plenty of extra fuel as a bare minimum. It’s nowhere near as bad as it used to be but there are still huge amounts of the continent that are almost completely empty(except for the occasional pub lol) ask the locals for advice if you can understand the accents trust me they’ll usually be amazingly helpful. We got caught by floods once near Tibooburra on a 4WD trip and a station owner dropped by to see how we were travelling for food then drove back to his homestead to get us some lamb chops. It was almost a 160 km round trip! Australia is vast and ancient. If you take the time and make the effort to understand and experience this you will never forget it…

    A great way to get around Australia is by hiring a car or motorbike and driving inter city.
    Stop for breaks at coffee stops in most towns, or cook a meal on a barbie.
    Biggest tip if doing this is to watch out for wild life crossing roads. They have right of way.
    Enjoy!

    I went to Bondi beach on a new years day and it was 40 degrees. Thought it'd be a great day for a swim and the water was absolutely freezing.
    If you want a nice place to swim, go to the Gold Coast or Sunshine Coast. Beautiful beaches and great water temperature. Always swim where its patrolled.

    Sydney and the east coast is not Australia. Summer temps in Australia get much higher than 37C outside of Sydney. Adelaide gets up to over 45C at times - sometimes for a week or more and it gets even hotter and uch dryer in other parts of the country.
    If you are going to come to Australia in summer you need to be prepared for heat and sun you have probably never experienced. This is particularly true outside of the east coast or west of the Great Dividing Range.
    Some northern europeans without sun protection are likely to be sunburned to the extent of having blisters in a few hours in some parts of Australia. We had a group of about 100 europeans visit - not in the middle of summer and about 50% of them ended up with blisters from the sun over large parts of their bodies to the extent that some became casualties.
    I would suggest that unless you have lived or worked in a very hot, dry, arid region you don't visit Australia west of the Great Dividing range unless you are going with an organised group or with local friends - this is especially true outside of towns and cities.
    People - tourists esepcailly - die in that area of Australia because the conditions are beyond their imagination or experience - it's not jsut the heat, its the lack of water, lack of shade and lack of people. Like you might not see another person for months.

    The distances between destinations in Australia are huge. I once had a person ask me how long it would take to ride a bike to Uluṟu. We were in Brisbane when they asked so I told them they would take a month but they would literally die. It would be like riding from Paris to Istanbul… through a desert. Fortunately anyone who tried this would still be in populated areas before they realised it is not a realistic goal.

    I love Australia & may be one of the best in the world. But like all places, though cases may be few, one of my relative had his brand new Car, broken into & laptop was stolen while he parked in an authorised parking area. Cases were filed, but it seems it is very difficult to trace these devices as they get immediately dismantled & smuggled out of the country. Such things must be imediately addressed so that such crimes do not increase. But I will be visiting Australia this year & very excited to see the outback!

    I don’t recommend that tourists travel the outback in a hire car. The animals in Australia are far less dangerous than people make out if you respect them but the hot dry outback if you brake down when driving is FAR more dangerous. Even more dangerous is ocean currents when swimming. Stay between the flags unless you are a strong swimmer, you know how to read the ocean and how to get out of a rip and you haven’t been drinking.

      There's no running water and your waste gets dropped through a hatch into a pit below. There's no flush. There Will be running water to wash your hands but generally it's not drinkable. They may or may not provide toilet paper, so take your own but make sure it's not chemically treated and nothing non-biodegradeable can be put down them (sanitary napkins, wipes, nappies etc).

    • @oldchev2850
      @oldchev2850 14 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      I've lived here for over 60 years and have seen lots in that time but honestly, you don't have to worry about them. They are probably more scared of you. I've only been bitten by a snake once but that was because I stood on it accidentally. Don't walk through long grass and you'll be fine.
      I think the best place to live is on the coast between northern NSW to south east Queensland. Absolutely the best weather. As far as visiting, anywhere in Australia is good, including Perth. Sydney is probably my favourite capital city. Lots to do and see.
      Best beaches are between Bargara and the Gold Coast on the east coastline of Australia.

    • @ianhayes5140
      @ianhayes5140 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Yes but it’s not common. I’ve lived here in various parts of Australia for 61 years and never had a snake come into any of our houses. But it does happen. Had a few in our yard though. Don’t leave doors open. Don’t try and kill them (which is illegal anyhow and the cause of most bites). The most dangerous spider, funnel web, is mainly around Sydney and surrounds. They don’t tend to come into the house but will be in the garden so just wear gloves when gardening. This thing about Australia being dangerous is a fallacy. Personally I think Africa, North and South America and Asia have far more dangerous animals than Australia.

    • @between666

      Yes. Doors shut or snakes get in and people have found them under the pillow. It's a hostile environment outside the cities.

    • @halleyorion
      @halleyorion หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I have lived in a rural area of southeastern Australia for over 10 years.
      I have only seen maybe 4-5 snakes in that time (half of them dead/roadkill, and the other half only in forests far away from human habitation). They are definitely around, but they are very afraid of humans. If you make some noise while you walk around, they will hear you before you ever see them and get out of your way.
      Large spiders (huntsman spiders) are extremely common here, though. They are not dangerous, but they do look scary.
      I occasionally see the Australian black widow (locally known as the redback spider), but they are not nearly as dangerous as American black widows. In the last 60 years, only one person has died from a redback bite.
      The most dangerous animals around here, by far, are kangaroos because they often jump in front of moving cars. You want to be very careful driving at dawn and at dusk.
      In other parts of the country, you may need to be wary of crocodiles and funnelweb spiders.

    • @between666
      @between666 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Cane toads were a bigger problem in the early days. Highly toxic but over the years crows have learnt to flip them over on the back and kill them. We have a spider we call daddy long legs apparently very venomous but it's fangs aren't strong enough for humans. I grew up on the beach sharks and blue bottles were the hazard. But at a place called the spit on the gold coast there is a bush area and certain times of the year people find eastern brown snakes hiding in their beach towels.
