So someone please help me, give me some pointers and some peace of mind?

Noone's generally welcome in England !~) They hate everyone equally, so don't be offended! Only kidding...

Australians are generally a warm, open and friendly lot. There are anomolies, but they usually get told to "pull their head in".

It would be helpful what pointers you are seeking. I'm assuming you are from the US.... Most negative stereotypes of US people include arrogance, loud talkers, and thinking the world revolves around them. So if you don't have these traits, you'll have a great time in Aus.

The thing i love about Australia is the multiculturalism. If you go to a city bigger then 100,000 then it will have enough ethnicity. Some of the towns not so ethnic so you wouldn'tdnt be as welcome.

Move here, its easy and the best country eva!

Australia is like a second home to me and have always felt welcome there. Im sure you will feel the same. But don't be offended if they call you a Pom that's just how they are, but they mean no offense by it.

you already asked this... Australia is fine ok.

Australia is one of the most multi-cultural places in the world. You'll have no problem fitting in, no matter who you are, or where you're from.

I'm a Linux loving WoW playing geek, and I'm best friends with a typical outback, horse-riding Australian girl and an Asian music genius.

Honestly, everyone fits in.

We're all so used to tourists... I've grown up with them everywhere. No one thinks twice about where you're from. =D

You will be very welcome no matter where your from. We have a huge amount of tourists from many countries . We have a huge amount of immigrants also from many countries . So Come on over . Youll love it
It's hard to give you other ideas as not sure what you would like to know. I'm going to guess your in your early 20s and maybe you could stay in a back packers and meet others doing a similar thing and maybe team up with one or two others for trips around. .Remember Australia is huge, very diverse , everywhere is different . We have some spectacular places to visit.

Come to Sydney, it's the major city in Australia and probably the easiest place in Australia to find a job. There's heaps to do - go to the opera, do the bridge climb, go to the beach, etc. You can go down to Melbourne for a shopping holiday, but there's not much else to do down there. For a beach holiday, you can stay in Sydney or go to the Gold Coast in Queensland, or go to the central or north coast of NSW or just go to Brisbane.

Australians and the like are intolerant, insensitive and ignorant. They possess an odd sense of humor and do not reciprocate on acts of kindness i.e. dinner (instead, they will invite you out for dinner and make you pay for your share).

They are also not inclined to criticism of any kind of their country, culture or customs. Even, if it's constructive criticism.

For instance, I once mentioned to my Australian friend that his government should conduct another referendum and if agreed, make a swift and decisive transition to a republic. I attempted to tell him my reasons, which in my opinion were valid and sound. However, he just walked away and gave me the cold shoulder. I concluded that, Australians were and will never be up for a change even if it would benefit greatly and they are still loyal to a country which deserted them in a time of need (i.e.england, world war II).

I advice you start with Melbourne. It would be a better choice for a person from cool climate.
