When we think about Australia, we often think of kangaroos, snakes, sharks and insects. But the Australian reality is vast and has a lot more interesting things.
1. Kangaroo often appears in the front yard
This is not a strange thing for indigenous peoples, they can often see kangaroos in front of their homes, spacious and sunny.
Everyone in Australia knows that kangaroos and koalas are animals with large claws, so keep your distance and be careful with them. However, sometimes someone likes to be close to animals like this.
2. Summer driving is a torture
Summer weather in Australia is really hot. If you see someone driving with gloves like this, don't be surprised, simply because the steering wheel is too hot, they need to protect their hand skin
3. Voting is very important
Voting in Australia is a must. If you do not vote, you will be fined.
4. Nature
The nature here looks beautiful and peaceful, but remember that thousands of different wildlife here can harm you. Sharks, snakes, crocodiles, even a jellyfish - are all dangerous animals. OMG, how do people survive there?
However, most of these creatures are rare, they live in restricted areas and often run away when you have discovered them. But you need to pay attention to snakes, spiders, and some other unpleasant things.
5. Platypus
Platypus are mammals that lay eggs instead of babies and Australia is home to these special animals. There are many funny people who joke that this is an animal made up of parts of many different species: duckbill, beaver tail and feet of otters.
Another strange species is echidna, which has thorns like a hedgehog, has a pouch like a kangaroo and a beak like a bird.
6. The world of marsupials
Pocket animals keep their children in a bag in front of their stomachs. The marsupial will only be in his mother's bag until it is big enough to be outside. They can be kangaru, wallabies, koalas, possums, opossums, wombats or Tasmanian devil.
7. Paradise of flying squirrels
This cute little animal lives in Australia, New Guinea and some Indonesian islands. They look like a small squirrel and can glide in the air.
8. The Lemongrass of the Game House (kookaburra)
What could make you more uncomfortable when you wake up at 5 am from the laughter from a small bird on your balcony? Maybe 2 birds ?! If you like a giggle, listen to them.
The kookaburra originating from Australia and New Guinea are known for their unique appearance and their cries.
9. White Christmas
While most of the world celebrates Christmas in the winter, Australians have the opportunity to enjoy a white and mid-summer Christmas. They often hold parties on the beach or near the pool.
10. Traffic signs are strange images only in Australia
Australians love their country's wildlife. While most of the world only slows down pedestrians, Australian drivers also slow down with kangaru and koalas.
11. Vegemite butter
Can someone explain to us why this black substance, which looks like motor oil, becomes a traditional national dish? It tastes salty, has a pungent odor and will cause some discomfort for the first time. Vegemite is made primarily from yeast and beer foam, then condensed, added salt and essential oils extracted from celery and onions.

14. Wi-Fi
It is frustrating when Wifi flickers and this often happens in Australia, it is not only slow but also constantly disconnected.
15. Strict quarantine rules
Australia is extremely strict for things you bring from abroad. It also applies to pets and Johnny Depp has learned this before. Pets must be quarantined for a long time before being allowed to travel to Australia, sometimes taking several months. The reason for this is to prevent some animal diseases.
16. Free fruit for children
A few years ago, one of the largest supermarket chains began a 'free fruit for children' campaign . Baskets full of pears, apples, bananas and children can take a piece of fruit to enjoy while their parents go shopping. Many questions about food hygiene, but this is a great idea anyway.
17. Street battles
Australian street matches look like this. If you are nearby, stay away from them and keep your dog firmly. This is how kangaroos take the lead.

Hail in Australia is quite common. Fortunately, it only lasted for a few minutes, but it still caused a lot of damage. Everyone in Australia is careful when hail occurs, they stay indoors and bring pets together.
If you are driving, the safest thing to do is stop the car, go to the floor in front of the back seat and then put your front seat back down on you to cushion you from the glass if the windshield is broken. But if your car is a convertible or only has a sunshade, you're in trouble.
