Answer 2

Our beer is much better, it's got a higher alcohol content and you are allowed to drink it at 18 years old!!!

hehe

Our standards of education are arguably more superior too. A bachelor degree from Australia is pretty much the equivalent of a postgraduate degree in the US.

It doesn't take much to dig below the surface and discover that Australia, and Australians, are very different to the US even if we do have the same TV shows and mod cons of modern Western culture. Australia is also very multicultural in the cities.

If you are not arrogant and have a thick skin and a good sense of humour to be able to laugh at yourself, you'll find Australians to be generally a lot of fun and friendly. We really don't take kindly to being compared with the US, so best not to bring it up.

good luck :)
