Typical Australian. Forgetting there are other countries in South East Asia and Oceania.

I don't know whether you genuinely mean apart or you meant to say a part and just aren't much above the average literacy level of Australia.

Honestly, its not that expensive. Factor in that the Australian economy is thriving compared to many parts of the world. Europe is in an economic crises. Last I checked the Australian dollar was really close to American dollars and most of Asia is dirt cheap. As a former Australian, it really was a relief to get out and explore the rest of the world, it is an experience I'd recommend to everyone. And you would be surprised on the amount of people I've met who want to go visit Australia. And as the final cherry on the cake, its such an awesome feeling having people always comment on your accent! There is always something to talk about because you got that icebreaker of where you are from.
ps. the girls will dig the Aussie accent.

The Tasmanian Liberation Consortium might have something to say about that.
