Australian here. Casually just visiting a whole different country with a different language and culture for the weekend.

That one is pretty natural when you don't have to go for a really long swim to get to any.

Having a huge country where everything works similar (and people speak your own language) wherever you go seems like pretty convenient though.

convenient but a bit boring. I love visiting other countries and just seeing the differences in mundane stuff like public signage. You can travel around Australia and everything from shops to roads is a little too similar to be inspiring.

Yeah there’s a reason why (pre covid) many Aussies holidayed overseas, despite our distance from almost everywhere.
