We have really enjoyed calling Sydney home over the last several months. What are some of your favorite things about Australia?

1. No tipping culture. 2. Metric system. 3. Toilet that don’t blocks up easily like American toilet (but gets more skid marks). 4. Almost indestructible Polymer money that can be ‘cleaned’ and easily distinguishable by colour. 5. Sensible gun laws. 6. Politically independent electoral commission, no gerrymandering by individual party. 7. Compulsory voting and Election held on Saturday, not Tuesday, so people can actually go and cast a vote. kzread.info/dash/bejne/c6yp2cOzkbu1fco.html. 8. Preferential voting system, so representative is answerable to more diverse voters, not just catering to special interest group. 9. Aunty (ABC) and generally effective media landscape. 10. Not as dependent on private uber-rich philanthropists whose interests may not always align with national interests. Sorry for getting a bit political but these points makes Australia a great place.

And yep, we had to use the plunger when in Boston. Also credit to Americans and their founding fathers who came up with the first democratic government of the modern age.

My favourite thing about Australia: Cronulla; No, Forster/Tunncurry; No, Jervis Bay; No Perth; No, the entire west coast (all 3600klms of it!); No, the desert interior; No, the entire East coast; No, the Sutherland Shire and surrounding areas; No, the Royal National Park; No, the small towns that dot our countries road system; Then there are ALL the beaches. You can visit a new beach everyday in Australia and not see them all in 20 years !!! I could go on but I think you get the picture...

Australia would love people like you as citizens.

Born overseas but have been in Australia since I was 4 years old. I spend most of my time dreaming of Europe or other overseas destinations, then, finally, my wife and son and I will go overseas, have a great time, but I get home SO grateful for living here. It is clean, bright, there is space(!), and we genuinely work to live, not the other way around. I really do love being an Aussie. Although, I am from Brissie, and I must say, it would great to have a 10 degree reduction in temperature! Other than that, it's bonza! There is another slang word for you! I think nothing pleases us more than seeing people from overseas love our country, so thank you so much for these videos. Have a safe trip back, relax, get a cuppa, have a couple of choccy bikies, some smashed avo on toast, and start planning your trip back! See ya!

Born Australian, lived in Melbourne my life, am in last year of highschool. Australia’s been blessed to have the pair of you, and you’ve changed my perceptions of the stereotypical American. Hopefully you come back some time, whether to live or for holiday, and the other people who come here are just as sweet and lovely as you two. Edit: As I’m watching, I agree with all your points. Especially 12, one of Australia’s main cultural values is multiculturalism and egalitarianism. We pride ourselves on having many cultures here and being able to share them. Most of the younger generations are mixed babies like myself, and most people speak more than just English. I myself speak Greek, French and Korean as well, due to my family, and at school I learned Mandarin for 8 years. Man, you guys are just so kind, I really hope you come Melbourne or go back to Sydney sometime, we all apreciate the both of you

You should see if you can find the Farmer Wants A Wife. They are bringing it back as a show in a couple of weeks, but it was on for a number of years. Unlike MAFS, FWaW has had 8 or 9 marriages and about 20 children... and the marriages have lasted, some for over 10 years at this point. The premise is they select 4 or 5 farmers from remote properties (farms) and select 15-20 girls for each farmer, who then whittles them down to just two or three that they then take back to the farm to see if they would fit in.... it’s not as confrontational as MAFS, but has a much better track record and the farmers are very real people.

As an Australian, after travelling to the US I appreciate not having to tip and just in general only having to pay the listed price, not price plus tax or even ++ that I came across sometimes or having to add the 20% gratuity. The price is the price!

and that's 10 weeks for every 10 years

Have you heard of "Long service leave" after 10 years of work, you get 3 months off, fully paid. Also we get what's called "leave loading" 17 1/2% extra pay when we go on holiday.

If you do come back you have to go to a suburb in Sydney called Strathfield it has the best Korean BBQ and Restaurants outside of Seoul. There is probably at least 20 to 30 places to eat there. So amazing. I’m glad you had a great time and come back as soon as COVID-19 is gone. 💙💙💙💜💜

Totally agree, being back in the US, we're missing those delicious flat whites and authentic Asian food that Australia offers. We've been enjoying great Mexican food again and making our own dumplings to get our fix! Hope you enjoyed your time abroad in the US, thanks for watching! 😊

I’m happy you two Enjoyed our country... I’m a little north of Brisbane... back of the Sunshine Coast.. A place called the glasshouse Mountains. Look it up on google I think you’ll appreciate it more than Sydney, but then again I’m not a city person I don’t like any city. Anyway Australia would be happy to have a couple as you two are citizens here. Take care

You pronounce Coogee the same as we do here in Perth as we have a beach here called Coogee like in Sydney. In Sydney they pronounce it Cudgee.

Believe it or not we're two Americans that aren't fans of Starbucks. But we may have to give in when we're really craving a flat white! 😊

@@twotravelingkings I don't know how you americans drink that percolated coffee. Then everyone seems to complain about it (ok i'm going by tv shows). Flat Whites rule over cappuccinos as there is less froth in the cup so more coffee. You don't like Starbucks, well you are obviously 2 intelligent Americans as i can't understand how they stay in business. I think we are more fussy about our coffee whereas americans will drink anything they are told is coffee LOL

We were told Australia had a strong coffee culture and we were so happy to partake. Maybe because we're American, we can still enjoy a filtered coffee but flat whites are Jenny's new favorites. We had as much delicious coffee as we could while we were in Australia. ☕😍

Two Traveling Kings Maybe I’m a strange Aussie but I enjoyed most of the coffee in the states. Been through about 35 states so far and I can’t remember having coffee that I could call BAD - just different 👍

You should move to Australia. Seriously! I"m an American who came to Australia at the age of 27 after having spent more than a year living and working in Osaka, Japan. If you're under 30 and just starting out your life together, this is a good thing to do. Australia relies on immigration, so you are most welcome to come here. Also, you can keep your American citizenship. You'd become a "dual-national." I came to Australia for Christmas of 1992 and ended up staying. Best. Move. Ever!
