I want to visit Australia.

It is a country where there are different cultures, 36 percent of


its population are foreigners. For them it is very normal to greet someone they do not
know with a “Hello! How are you? It is also appropriate to greet a new acquaintance
with a handshake, a hug and a kiss on the cheek, or a verbal greeting, the most
common way to greet a friend. Colloquialism, "g'day" (good morning), is considered
the greeting par excellence. making eye contact is also educated.
Walking barefoot down the street is normal, this is considered informal but they feel
good.
It is typical to have barbecues for the holidays, eating kangaroo meat is normal for
them. I will need eating habits, Dinner in Australia is possibly the most important meal
of the day. It is usually done around 7:00 p.m. and is more abundant than the
lunchtime meal. when they invite you to a dinner it is disrespectful to arrive after the
hour. the language barrier is not a problem because Australians are friendly and
hospitable, they help you with the language. it is very important that they be kind to
others.
. Christmas is usually celebrated as in Great Britain, it is common to eat roast turkey,
ham and roasted vegetables.
However, there is a growing trend for Christmas to involve a light seafood meal, and
barbecues are also becoming popular. But, Some people celebrate "Christmas in July",
taking advantage of the coldest month of the year to enjoy the hot dinner of a
traditional Christmas.
celebrating Easter is preparing special meals among ethnic groups. giving children
(Easter eggs) made of chocolate is a custom.
- many capitals hold a fireworks event when celebrating Australia Day. After this
people go out to dinner together to commemorate British colonization.
- Melbourne Cup Day, is an annual horse racing event in Melbourne. when this day
comes Many people formally attend the race and employees at workplaces gather to
watch the event on television. it is considered a holiday.
The Australian dollar is used by people. Australia is a rich country although the US
dollar has more value worldwide. Gold and oil are exported by Australia because it has
40 percent of these minerals in its subsoil. Cars are imported into Australia. Coal is also
produced in Australia because it is used primarily to generate electricity. The kangaroo
and the koala are found in Australia. Although the koala is in danger of extinction,
Australians do everything possible to save them. Englis is spoken by people, but only
75 percent because there are many foreign people who speak Chinese, Italian, French
and Thai. Melbourne was the capital of Australia 90 years ago, now it is the city called
Canberra. But the main city is called Sydney so tourism is higher in this city.
I plan to study more English before I travel, I will read more about Australian customs
and traditions, after every break from work. I will see the most important places as
soon as I arrive. I think it will be an unforgettable trip.
