Why would I waste my hard-earned money vagabonding around an overpriced Australian city full of rich people and sprawling suburbs? Australia is a place you travel from, not one you travel to (unless you're looking to work there). Even Scoot roundtrips from KUL or SIN are $350+. That's $50 per day on flights alone for a weeklong trip. By the time you add non-hostel lodging, dining and daytrip excursions, you'll looking at $1000 USD for a week in Aus, easy.

Aus cities *are* generic. It's always so weird seeing UK and Eurofag cities in movies / tv shows with buildings so old. Every city here has miles of new suburbs where there once were horse paddocks, market gardens and bush (forest), apparently the biggest houses & apartments on average in the world (beats even USA). Yes the price of living is steep but in smaller cities (Canberra, Adelaide) traffic is manageable. Outdoors type activities and sports arecwgat people everywhere here generally can't get enough of.

Australia is miserable in summer, that's the take-away message. When it's sunny, you burn. When it's cool, it's wet and rainy. Go in winter if you must.

I don't get why Americans travel to AustraliaIt looks exactly like America except the houses are smaller and have fences in the front yard instead of just the back. Why would you spend $2000 and 18+ hours on a plane to see that?
