Well, I'm partial to Perth, but I haven't seen much of the rest of the country. An overnight in Sydney is all, though I ended up staying in King's Cross so it was for sure an amusing!! overnight.
Perth is beautiful, with the hills in the back and the bay and the ocean. It's the most blue/green water I've ever seen - pictures can't do it justice.
The people are very friendly. Casual, very easy going and polite.
I wasn't there long enough to get a good grip on things to do other than know if you're outdoorsy you should be happy. Lots of space to breath - an important thing in my book but you are more used to high density living than I am.
I'm seriously thinking of retiring there, and I'm saving my pennies. It takes a lot of US dollars to be allowed to move there.
