A bite from the Yeah, we know we’re right! But believe it or not, Australia has far too many credentials than you might have ever paid attention to.

A warning – do not freak out when you just lose out on a day from your lives, when you travel to this drastically different time zone!

Australian-for-beerA prize of ten galleons for those who can name things typically Australian, apart from Nicole Kidman, the Ayers Rock, Cate Blanchett, Sydney Opera House, the Australian cricket team and Australian-for-beer. Perhaps, most would not have an inkling of the name of the Australian Prime Minister either. Yeah, we know we’re right! But believe it or not, Australia has far too many credentials than you might have ever paid attention to. It’s the world’s largest island, the island that is also a continent and the continent that is also a country – and the sixth largest by the way! The only country that began as a prison, Australia is home to the largest living thing on Earth – the Great Barrier Reef and a unique animal, the Kangaroo! A warning – do not freak out when you just lose out on a day from your lives, when you travel to this drastically different time zone!

For a first timer, Sydney without a doubt, is the best place to start your sojourn. Established in 1788, which is relatively new as compared to world standards, by Arthur Philip, the leader from the First Fleet of Britain, it relishes one of the most beautiful geographical locations, surrounded by Pacific Ocean on the east, the Blue Mountains on the west, the Woronora Plateau to the south and the Hawkesbury River to the north. Although most of the citizens of northern hemisphere would be unaware of the climatic diversity down under, perhaps the fact just one city, Sydney, bears all – draughts, bush fires, floods and storms would give a rather clear picture of its diversity, thanks to the El Nino Southern Oscillations!

You’d find most of the things in this place inverted - the seasons (July is the coldest and December, as warm as it can get!), the oscillations, and also the way this country almost never makes news, be it any reason – right or wrong! Sydney is calm, peaceful but rather expensive. Literally cut off from the rest of the world, it is more that just fun being here during Christmas. Where else could you wear a red bikini, a Santa cap and sledge around on a beach?!!
