Hehe well I remember one time when I was on a train back home from sydney, and I was surrounded by some american teenage backpackers who would jump around like crazy whenever we spotted a kangaroo.
Indeed, we do have some of the most venomous snakes in the world, but bites are
VERY rare... its like suggesting to people travelling to the states 'to be careful of alligators'
(In Florida, maybe)
But nah, Australia is a cool place. Its a very dispersed country, and if you ever need personal space, then you've come to the right place! For example, Germany has 80 million people.... and its total area is only half the size of our most populated state (NSW= 6 million people). Australia= 21 million people.
P.S don't watch wolf-creek.
