I hear that life there is slower paced than in the major N.American cities. I also heard from a family friend it took two weeks for their phone line to be hooked up, where here its like three days.

But Why??

Advantages: We are a heck of a long way from anyone else.

Disadvantages: We are not as far away as we would like to be.

It is the best place in the world to live. We will get rid of the only disadvantage, the prime minister, at the next Federal Election in a month or two.

Australia is wonderful.....I think every australian should be very proud of his or her country....there are 98 advantages out of 100 but nothing is perfect ...there might be some disadvatages too....people are great.....polite and respectful...I think the problem is it gets really hot at summer

The advantages of living in Australia is that there isn't going to be a coup in the next five minutes, you won't find armed soldiers and barbed wire at state lines (though you will find fruit checking stations - nasty, dangerous stuff, that fruit, can't have it moving about the country!), there aren't huge fields of poppies or other illicit crops being used to prop up a corrupt government or any of those other things that can make travelling around the world precarious.
We are one of the most stable and peaceful countries on the planet. People are generally friendly, courteous and will usually go out of their way to help an overseas traveller.

At first, you might think that because Australia has about fourteen species of lethally-venomous snakes (and 7 or 8 of those are in the Top 10 in the world), that may be a disadvantage; or, perhaps because there are deadly funnel-web spiders and red-back spiders found commonly around residential areas; or, maybe because the rivers and oceans conceal blue-ringed octupii, box-jellyfish, stone-fish and the worst of all, the tiny Irukanji jellyfish from Nth Queensland.
But some people (Steve Irwin ring a bell?) regard these things as special to Australia. I agree.
If any bookworms out there want to get a taste of Australia from an American/English perspective, I hugely recommend reading Bill Bryson's "Down Under". It's an eye-opener!

mom is a freak

Austrailia is beautiful from many different angles, but what scares me the most is the jellyfish in the ocean. In some places, there are nets to keep the jellyfish out of swimming areas, but some jellys are so tiny, they still get through!
