1) They abbreviate and/or have nicknames for everything (“uni” for university; “saltie” for crocodile; “Sheila” for girl; “bloke” for guy)
2) Airports never check any form of identification… I know… kind of scary. You just show up, get your boarding pass, and then get on the plane. They never ask to see a photo id or anything!
3) They only have 5 TV channels. They are like 10 years behind the US. They do, however, still love themselves some “American Idol.”
4) If given the chance, everyone walks everywhere. America is so lazy… we take our cars to check the mail (which is at the end of the driveway).
5) There is no tax on anything; tax is already included in price.
6) Australians love to talk about and compare Australian culture with American.
7) There is no free internet anywhere… even at the University of Western Australia (my school)… ugh, ugh, ugh!
