Answer 4

I won't presume to speak for me countrymen, but I find Oz, what little I know of it, an interesting place,and it's citizenry good ol' folks with the same wants, needs and goals me and my mates have.  I'd love to visit for a month or so and have the funds to spend on a grand walkabout to see as many of the sights and sites the nation has.  You can keep your crocks and your blue ockies at home, however.  We yanks are allergic to bites from both...but show me a diamond in the rough and I'll be your chum! She has to be young and single...

Answer 5

Good bunch of people, but as a nation, Australia is a little closer in as we circle the drain of Leftist Nightmare.  Sadly, the once independant people of Australia are being stuck with a disarmed nanny state.

Answer 6

We like Austrailia.  The people seem nice..you have cool accents.  However you gave us Crocodile Dundee, Air Supply and Bindi the Jungle Girl.  We are still recovering from that, but the healing process is almost done for most.  Some people, unfortunately, may never be the same.  

I'd like to come visit sometime...let's hang out!
