About Me |

Welcome To One Of The World's Most Beautiful Islands. We Are Our Own Large Country, Coming To You From A City Called Sydney, In The State Of New South Wales, Australia! First of all, let us state that this page is intended as a celebration of our lifestyle & culture. The idea came about after doing a search on Australia. All we found was pages full of junk with obsenaties that represented Australia and basicaly, wrote off people. Since then, we have seen so many more exceptional pages come alive. Well done to you all! We're always willing & wanting to help put a Australia on the map with a nice flavour so don't be afraid to hit us up & be a team :] We care about this sunburnt paradise & wish not to be known as some bunch of yobbo dorks living upside down with no idea :] We've designed most of it using contributions from locals & the public worldwide. Our aim is to try & give all readers different facets & opinions of life as an Aussie. *We have no political or personal agenda whatsoever and No offence is intended to any reader. Oh, one more thing. With travelling & living a life with it's demands outside the internet world then, having to personaly approve over 3,000+ pages (as not everyone is approved) sometimes it might take a few weeks to get back to your msgs. It's sad that some peeps take things personal & even go to the extent of blocking our page. We do reply to each and every one of you so please, Be patient :) Now we got that out of the way, Enjoy! If you have some info on what you sell & would like to bring it to our readers attention, please send it along in the form of a comment. Once its approved we will post. Post as often as you like. We'd love to help your buisiness expand. I know pages with heaps of info take ages to load so our apologies for that but, if you watch each YouTube you will see so much of Australia that has been captured by professionals. We thought they were so good, we posted them all. In surfing different pages, we were prompted to make a quality page with a true kind flavour of who an Aussie is today. We display Aussie people & companies in our friends list & like to give our readers the freedom to choose what they look at. We don't write alot here. You can read the history blogs or see many picture albums, in a user friendly way. Our aim is to be both interesting & sensitive ie. posting the Aussie animal pictures in Steve Erwin's photo album. We're hoping that this will not only leave you uplifted & amazed with our wonderful Australian animals, but also put you tune you with what his passion was all about. Hitting up some of the aussie pages can open up so much to explore. You get a wide range of opinion and personalities from an Australian. You'll read about some others we also hold close in our hearts as Hero's. Trying to give the globe a close up of who we are is not an easy task so always feel free to contribute. I can confirm on behalf of our country that we do (still) have that wonderful thing called freedom, to be who we are. We wanna show all visitors that we're warm people living in a terrific place we call home! We're wanting to load this page up with loads of info. Your very own personal memories & stories are welcome & shall continually change our page so make sure share you bookmark us for another sticky beak! In the PHOTO albums (pics link) you will find many albums with numerous photographs of our beautiful beaches, people, cities & harbour. Ray Collins is a new upcoming Australian photographer who is grabbing the attention from not only the locals but also overseas buisiness. Australian Surf Life has recently published some of his work & more is coming! Ray is a local who takes on a variety of miscellaneous requests from personal shots to commercial. Contact him direct on his web page at RayCollinsPhoto.com if your interested in using a credible photographer. We've also added pictures to a folder from Australian born Hawaiin professional photographer called Sean Davey. This contains his very own pictures he took of Sydney. Any interested parties wanting to purchase these contact Sean at www.myspace.com/daveyindahouse or go to seandavey.com to see more. Make sure you check 'em both out! In our BLOGS there are many short history notes about the country & Aussie's contributions. We won't be able to cover every facet of this gorgeous place & it's people but we do like to relay facts & supply url's. If you need any info, Consider sending a request. Eventually, you will read about yummy foods, culture, language & slang, religion, music artists & past governments to special people remembered for extrodinary things, past & present. We've also posted some American tv show posters. Although these particular shows are not Australian made - Aussie's *did* grow up watching them. I'm sure they will jog your own memories as they did ours in finding them. If your curious for any Aussie news, need info for school assignments, moving here and want particular information, write us. Maybe your from another city or state of Australia & want to contribute something. Feel free to request anything in comments/private messages. We'll do our best to accommidate! http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/ Are you an Aussie who's an over sea's resident? Give us your story, we will blog it!

Some, from all over the world give wonderful insight on their pages putting in alot of time & effort by supplying maps, facts & statistics for you to enjoy.
