Wow, there's more than one flavor of tim tams? I only tried the original. I really would like to live in Australia one day.

I mean, you all are so nice! When I was there, people would come up to me and be like, "Hi, American! Welcome to Australia!!!!"

Kendra...I have a question about these New Zealand margarita things my bf was telling me about that apparently have mayonaise on the rim instead of salt...

WTF?

Whoa, I don't know anyone who pulls that shit. I've had plenty of margarita's in various places in NZ, and can safely say I've never seen it.

I just typed in mayonnaise and margarita and it came up with some dude in Tokyo who does it. Definitely isn't a kiwi thing, though. We don't like mayonnaise that much... I'm sure there's someone here that's done it with tomato sauce, though.

Ahahaha...I'll see if I can find the article...

Hahahah.
What was the reason you came to Australia last time?

I was a student ambassador for People to People, and the point of these trips is to educate people about other cultures, thus getting closer to world peace .

Oooh, sounds cool. That would be so awesome to do, plus a free trip to other countries!! Haha.

How long were you here for? And did you get to go to other places too?

It definitely wasn't free, haha. The trip cost like 4,000+.

I was there for 16 glorious days. We spent a lot of time in Melbourne, Sydney, all those big cities. And we also went to Krombit Park, which was a huuuuuge like self-sustaining farm thing. Annnd we went to Whitsunday Island, which was really pretty.

I've been an Alumni (sounds shiny, huh?) member for like four years, and I could go anywhere I want with P2P, but since I'm poor and its expensive... Yeah.

Woah, haha I thought you got a free trip!
Ahhh I wanna go to the Whitsundaysss!! Lucky lucky!!

And can I ask you.... which city is better out of Melbourne or Syndey?? Hehehe. See, I haven't been to Sydney since I was about 7, and I don't remember it, and I wanna know which one reigns supreme hahaha.

That's so cool that you can go anywhere they go, if you've got the cash. What an experience it would be!!!

From what I remember, I liked Melbourne. It was really clean and like, futuristic looking and just had a lot of cool stuff.

Sydney I loved also, except all the convict history stuff they made us dress up in. I don't know, it was a longish time ago. But I just loved Australia as a whole, cause its like rural for one spot, and totally city-ish in another.

Hahah yaaaaaaaaay.
I heart Australia too
Which is good... cos I live there.... hehe

OH SHIT! I went to the little meeting thing for that, a long time ago though. I didnt go to Aussie, i knew there was nooo way i could earn the money to pay for it. It shoulda been free since... well just cuz.

Sheyah those meetings are pretty dumb... almost made me not do it, but I'm so glad I did.

Jade, I'm from Sydney and I LOVE Melbourne! I get lost in Sydney and bored as all hell... The harbour is nice and the gardens and stuff but yeah >.< Melbourne is lovely! Cept for the junkies who got angry at me for not giving them money *whimpers*.

lol..gotta love our junkies!

Poor, poor junkies.

Hahaha, I've NEVER had a junkie ask me for money.

Although, they are around.

OMG OMG OMG! I went to the city with friends a little while ago and there was this guy drawing from copies of artists' drawings and he was SO GOOD! He was just drawing huge free hand pics of it on the concrete with so much shading and definition and FUCK IT WAS AMAZING! And he had a bucket out for money and one of my friends contributed quite a bit and everyone was like SHIT HE'S GOOD HE DESERVES MY PAY CHECK hahaha.

That was the coolest busker I've ever seen... (can you call that busking?)

YAAAY MELBOURNE RULES!
I honestly wouldn't wanna live anywhere else. EVER! Bwhaha C:

Shush, Jade! Your making me want to visit Melbourne again.

Hehe YAY!
But you know... is it all that different from America really?
