Australia

Australia When I first came to Australia it reminded me of a colonial outpost. The officials were pompous and behaved like little Englanders. I thoroughly disliked the country, it didn`t help it was so far from civilisation I was thinking of Europe pubs closed early and beer was served in small glasses. There was not much of nightlife I think the whole nation went to bed at nine in the evening. Of course, this has changed now the country It is modern and the people well educated, alas, this does not include the political class who do not appear independent of USA and align their politics with that country. Young Australia are getting restless they want to change. A quiet revolution is needed and better care of nature is also on the agenda. Despite this Australia in my mind, is a boring And the last place I will wish to go.
