Australia is a continent, a country, and a land where kangaroos outnumber people. However, according to its most active online ambassadors, the place offers much more than the famous marsupial.

The subreddit ‘Australia’ unites locals and visitors who regularly share candid glimpses into this corner of the world. Whether it’s about the locals’ dry humor or the even drier landscapes, the posts touch on almost every aspect of everyday life, painting a picture for even those who haven’t experienced it to get an idea of what it’s about.

    Ive always wanted to move to Australia but I was married to my ex and he didnt want to. got divorced a few years back but then realized I have the dumbest dog and cat ever and I have to wait for them to pass because they would be dead within a week from trying to be friends with every damn animal and insect there. they do that here but at least they are mostly not poisonous or venomous. not the case in Australia. 10lbs dog, 16lbs cat.. dumb as rocks love them to death but they stiff or lick or cuddle everything...

    As long as I can access YouTube tutorial videos at the start of the fight without being interrupted by adverts, I can certainly get on board with it.

    Was it the fact that they were solar panels, or that they were going to be allowed to pollute? Or just NIMBY?
