1. Reports on the news of shark sightings, cue Jaws soundtrack every single time.
2. The heat. “What’s wrong with the road?!” “It’s melting.”
3. Everyone’s obsession with vegemite
4. The size of the country: “What? You’re in Australia? We’ll have to meet up!” Hmm, so you’re a 68 hour drive away…
5. ‘Mate’ ‘heaps’ ‘sweet eh!’ ‘no dramas’ – still a mega novelty every time we hear them
6. The extortionate price of… everything!
7. Parrots instead of pigeons
8. Solar-powered Christmas lights
9. BBQs at every possible opportunity. “Can it be barbecued? That’s how we’ll cut it then.”
10. The volume of flies and size of the mosquitos (almost as big as bees we reckon).
