Bringing the learning home (Australian Learning & Teaching Council)

Australia Day in Miami

The 26th fell on a wednesday in the States so  a few of the other Aussie guys and I decided to go to the pub. We wore some Australian gear and set out to drink beer, (which Americans are terrible and brewing). We met some cool guys that loved Australians (like all other Americans) so we gave them some Aussie Tattoos and they cheers and partied with us! It was a really good night and they learned about Australian culture and we exchanged stories and gained memories. My first Australia day in the States!

      One of my favourite things about America are the different reactions people have when they find out I am from Australia. At parties its so funy when we talk and people ask if we are Australian and we say yes they go crazy.

      I think America and Australia have good relations and because of the recent Oprah visit they love Australia more. Almost all of them say “I always wanted to go to Australia”.

      The stereotypes about Australia are so apparents when people start asking you quetions like do you have Kangaroos in your backyard and other silly stuff like that. Americans are very gullible and believe anything you tell them which can be funny at times.
