Have anything you disagree with? Let me know about it here!
You're right. I said that wrong. I meant you cant advertise it on TV (which is the main place alcohol is advertised in America)
I don't agree that it's more acceptable to live with your parents longer in Australia and actually I've known it to be the opposite. I've known Americans to be with their parents through their 30s/40s. I don't know many people that still live with their parents past 25. Not to mention, I've seen Australians mocked for living with parents.
Ok a tip buy the products at the supermarket with the yellow stickers not the red ones the yellow stickers are the ones that have actually been reduced
There are wild 🦃 here in the 🇺🇸, but they were almost hunted to extinction.

Where do I begin 🤔 so many that arent right 😐
If you're seeing shirtless people in shops you're either near a beach, in a Bogan suburb or both
Or you live in Queensland
@@ozbrizzie8869 so Queensland is Bogan state
Dylan Shadowstar no just warm. Went to the beach on Sunday and there were people swimming surfing canoeing and sun baking and we are still in the middle of winter and that is in SE Qld.
Yeah the shirtless bit really only applies to beachy areas and maybe small towns in warm beach areas I think.
Haha
Alcohol can be advertised but Smoking or cigarettes can't be
Where is it advertised at? I know the can put the logos in bars and liquor stores and places but it can't be on TV and things like that
Tristan Kuhn it can be on tv except for around school hours edit: if you watch nrl the Marrones are also sponsored by xxxx gold and there’s been adds for great northern during half time 👍
@@TristanKuhn sporting events like the cricket or football including, internet, and I swear I've seen it on TV but sometimes it can't be till after 8.30pm depends on the state.
Interesting fact: the only time cigarettes can be advertise is the Grand Prix because for tge international team's are sponsored
@@TristanKuhn
There are alcohol ads on TV.
Alcohol advertising isn't as common as it used to be. A Carlton Draught ad used to be an event. But gambling, holy shit, gambling advertising is EVERYWHERE.
We use our grapes for wine not jam 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I'm curious what grape jam tastes like though. I wonder why we don't have it since we make pretty much every other fruit into jam? I've never thought about it before.
Yeah thats true indeed in mildura they have heaps of vines and every bit is for wine
Based on your comment about young people living with parents longer, a lot of young Australians going to university and are from a state capital city are more likely to be going to a university in their city, and live with their parents. The impression I get from American movies and TV is that young Americans will go to college somewhere other than their hometown.
You're exactly right. That's what I was intending to say. Not trying to say Aussies just sit in their parents basements until their 30 haha
@@TristanKuhn What basement? Another difference.
@@TristanKuhn Basements don't really exist in Australia haha. Thats an 'American thing' to us
I have a theory that that's why Americans all call university 'college' because in Australia, colleges are the residential halls and communal dorms for on-campus living, but you only really stay at college if you're from out of the university's city. So university is the educational institution and college is the accommodation. I went to college because my hometown is 2 hours from my uni, but the vast majority of uni students still live at home or in a share-house and commute to uni each day.
Also houses are a lot more expensive here.
There are also raised dots on our currency to assist the blind.
Yer, one dot on the $5, two on the $10, three on the $20, and blah blah blah ...
I'm feeling my money right now haha. Didn't realize that
The colours are helpful too, if you have vision problems but aren’t completely blind.
@@brettevill9055 The colours are helpful for the fully abled. Telling US currency apart is a pain in the arse.
Braille is only included on new banknotes that have the transparent window that runs from top to bottom.
'Tradies get the ladies'. They're paid a lot here too!
Exactly! That's exactly what I was trying to say haha. In the states if you work in construction or you're a plumber or something it would probably be a turn off. COMPLETE OPPOSITE here
@@TristanKuhn plumbers get paid well here...no money, no honey!!
Yes, plumbers, electricians, a lot are earning 6 figures and from my experience mostly total hotties 😁
It's only fair our tradies are paid well. They work hard and provide criticality important services. I think it's sad that the US doesn't value that. Now if we can just extend the same respect to child care professionals.....
theyre paid alot...but terrible at financial management
generally,
iced coffee = coffee, milk, ice cream, cream
iced latte = coffee, milk, ice
Good to know. Thanks!
@@TristanKuhn btw as an aussie who often takes aussie culture for granted - i find your vids and your fascination with aus very entertaining and humorous
Aussies also differs such as -
1. Table etiquette: Our eating style is continental, Amercans dine using the American style.
2. We are polite when towards staff, we do not demand.
3. We have dryers but many prefer to dry clothes in the sun than to waste electricity.
4. Our power points/sockets have an on and off switch.
5. Hills hoist best invention ever stands proudly in many Australian back yards.
6. We tend to walk on the left hand side like how the traffic is flowing.
7. We have less sugar in our food than Americans.
8. Our drink and meal portions size are smaller.
9. Our government system is influenced from the U.S and the British.
10. Our stop signs for pedestrians at stop lights make noise and vibrate and some have Braille etched into them. This is to assist the hearing and visually impaired. The beeps are for the visually impaired whilst the vibration assist the deaf. The 'chirp' noises at 2 second intervals signal when to not to walk, the "boom" noise signal when to wlk and when to hurry up and they also assist a person to easily locate the crossing.
Our political system is often referred to as the Wash-Minster System, as it's a hybrid between the US Washington system with the Senate representing the states, to give equality to the states regardless of population and the UK West Minster system of parliamentary democracy with a Prime Minister and no President.
Yeah I was on a forum with US and Au people and we Australians all banged on about line drying our clothes. The Americans on the thread all thought it was a horrible idea and spoke of their clothes getting dirty, dusty, pollen stained from hanging on the line. I've never had pollen on my line dried clothes and dust is pretty rare and can of course be quickly dusted off.
@@zaniac100 ikr. I was on a bus tour in the States in Pennsylvania visiting the Amish community and the tour guide said " And if you look to the right, you can see clothes on the line, this is how the Amish dry their laundry" 😂
Andrew Newton I have never heard of the ‘Wash-Minster System’. Of course, as with everything, I may be wrong. I have always understood our Senate to be an echo of the bicameral British Parliament. We adopted the word ‘Senate’ from the Romans as we don’t and have never had an hereditary nobility in Aus. The closest we ever came to that was knighthoods and being knighted didn’t guarantee you a seat in the upper house of review. You had to be elected.
@@divusaugstus Some Australian states have upper houses that are directly inspired by the House of Lords. They used to be appointed, and early on there was a push to make squatters a “bunyip aristocracy” of hereditary legislators. But Wentworth did copy some features of the Australian constitution from the USA; the senate as a “states’ house” and the formal separation of powers are among them. He also learned from the American example some pitfalls to avoid.
Although not everyone is a fan, compulsory voting has some benefits in comparison with the American system. If the government makes it compulsory for every adult to enrol and vote, it has to ensure that EVERYONE has the opportunity to cast a vote. Even if you are in a remote desert community or on an island, at the Antarctic base, overseas or in hospital, there is a way to vote. In contrast, American governments can influence the result of the election by not having polling booths in the areas where the vote might not be in their favour - or by wrecking the postal system to prevent postal voting in a global pandemic.
Elections in Australia are held on Saturdays so no one has to queue in the snow or take time off work to vote. Community groups hold cake stalls (bake sales) and sausage sizzles outside polling booths, so there is usually a pretty good atmosphere.
American political parties spend a lot of money just convincing people to turn up on election day. This is not necessary in Australia, so less money is wasted on advertising. It means that smaller parties and independent candidates can afford to contest the election so voters have more choices.
Actually, if you don't want to vote in Australia, you don't have to - as long as you turn up and have your name marked as being there, you can write what you like on your voting form, or leave it blank. These ballot papers will be recorded as informal votes, so people can see how many voters didn't like any of the candidates. Or if you don't want to vote, you can just not enrol to vote. However, it's generally accepted that you don't get to complain about the government for the next three years, since you couldn't make the effort to have a say in the result.
actually he could do a whole video on the differences between our election systems, but he might be too young to fully understand it all.
what's astounding in the USA is how much complaining they do, with a
The irony of having slow ass wifi when it was originally invented by Australians 😂
Totally right. CSIRO
Who uses WiFi anymore? 4G and 5G is dirt cheap and everywhere unlike WiFi!
Yea big rip. To be technical it was invented by like 5 different guys i think some were dutch and 1 was aussie and 1 was kiwi or something like that
wifi was invented here but not for internet useage it was only for data transfur
The reason the Wifi is so slow is because it is connected to crappy internet! (Thank to Tony Abbott.) If you are lucky enough to be in an area which has a decent internet connection, then the wifi should be much better there.
A few more......
Australian PowerPoints and US call them outlets
Aussies say Fortnight and US bi-weekly
Bank Cheque’s and checks
Bi-weekly is incorrect though because it technically means twice a week not a fotnight
Sorry..... bi- monthly
You all say powerpoints? I mean, makes sense but that could easily be misleading to us. When we're giving a presentation at school, we usually call those power points or a power point presentation. I think there's also another difference with a chord/cable. There's something that we call a bungie chord but Australians say something else (sorry forgot what it was).
@@mackmarshmallows No, he's right. Whenever people say bi weekly to me, they mean once every other week.
@@PurpleCastles we’ve used ‘powerpoints’ since electricity started here in Australia and when Microsoft brought PowerPoint presentation in the 90’s, we just call that ‘using PowerPoint’ honestly never really ever an issue.
Just a little tip! Next time your at the supermarket look at the price tags! By law they have to show you prices per 100gm’s or Litre.
I come for the arms, I stay for the stories.
haha
Realistically, me too... Tristan, please never stop wearing tank tops. They love you. :D
Australia invented WIFI too...
The irony
So much irony
Thanks to politicians that thought pulling signals out of their rears was a better way to go. They call it the NBN technology mix. We call it a curse, the rest of the world calls it a joke.
@@julescruisecompanion WIFI was patented by the Australian CSIRO in 1994.
SallyanneRenolds Yup and yet we still voted the Libs in again last election even after the ruined the NBN!
Australia didn't invent Wi-Fi.
Hey Tristan, on point #13, you mentioned the $1frozen coke, but have you noticed the coke in Australia tastes sweeter? That’s because we use canes sugar in our soda drinks, not high fructose corn syrup. I’ve known other Americans to pickup on this difference...
In primary school we used to say
“No hat, no play, no school today” lol 😂
The reason for the difference in school year is so that the end of school matches up with summer holidays. In Australia summer starts in December where in the States starts in June. Also some people in Australia have roast turkey for Christmas (we don't celebrate thanksgiving)
Dude - the worst thing I experienced whilst in the USA, was how sweet your bread is. Vegemite on American Bread is basically what marmite tastes like. It's horrible. So to combat this vile abomination, I toasted Kaiser Buns instead. They provided a nice crunch, and a vegemite experience more aligned to what I had grown up with.
@NPC Trailer Switch, Celebrity NPC me too. A lot of food is so sweet in USA. They even have a sweet fruit salad with their thanksgiving dinner - that's with the main course - not the dessert... for dessert that have a really sweet pumpkin pie.
Vegemite would ruin anything it was put on. Horrible stuff.
chuckle @@blueycarlton, it's a damn sight better than Marmite..that is yuck stuff, Vegemite, yummo...
@@grandmasmagic3858
Marmite is horrible as well.
I did baggles when I was over in America
Probably moving to AUS once they allow us to travel.
Come on over! We'd love to have you!
You're gonna love it!
We'd love to have you! 🙂
@Harold BENSON Im in WA and I dont hate you, far from it my husband and daughter are both Victorian and we have a lot of family there. You are in our thoughts while you battle the pandemic, we hope that it is under control very soon so that we can open up the borders and welcome our Victorian brothers and sisters again.
@Harold BENSON I'm a Queenslander. I learned a long time ago not to worry what I imagine other people think. 😉
We pay our rent monthly, however when looking for a house the listing says the rent as something per week even if it's paid every month
Witht he Sour Patch - Australias have no artificial flavours and colours which is probably why they taste different to you.
That's definitely not true. While some don't, plenty of lollies have artificial shit in them. The biggest difference is that in the US they use high fructose corn syrup instead of cane sugar to sweeten stuff.
They might have found a few people are allergic to blue colouring, so no blue sour patch.
Bahahahaha of course we have artificial colours and sweetners in Australia.
@@heatherrowles2580 - Except thats not what i said. Australian products CAN have artificial colours and sweetners but Sour Patch Kids dont. Hence no Blue ones. Thats not to say they are healthier or better but they dont use an artificial chemical to colour or flavour them.
@@shaungordon9737 - Not what I said - I didn't say all lollies dont have artificial colours or flavours what I said is Sour Patch Kids DONT have artificial colours of flavours. Hence no blue ones. Are the natural flavours and colours better for you? No idea ... but that wasn't the point ... the point was why do they taste different and why no blue ones (which was what was mentioned in the vid).
USA - Ingredients: Sugar, Invert Sugar, Corn Syrup, Modified Corn Starch, Tartaric Acid, Citric Acid, Natural and Artificial Flavoring, Yellow 6, Red 40, Yellow 5 and Blue 1.
Australia - Cane Sugar, Glucose Syrup (from Wheat and Corn), Invert Sugar, Thickener (Acid Modified Wheat Starch), Food Acids (Fumaric, Tartaric, Citric), Natural Flavours, Natural Food Colours (Grape Skin Extract, Anthocyanins, Spirulina, Paprika Oleoresin, Turmeric).
I do agree corn syrup and sugar and Glucose syrup would create a different taste but in terms of this product the flavourign agents have more effect as they are designed to have strongly sourness which is predominat over the core sweetners .
There are lots of wild turkeys where I live, but we don't eat them. They're native birds so they are totally protected.
Great video tristan 👍 I love your content man 😎
I just came across your channel and I had to subscribe. Love your energy!
Alcohol advertisements are perfectly legal - some of the most famous ads are for Bundy Rum or the popular beers (VB, XXXX, Carton Draft etc).
It’s fine to drive at night but it depends where you are - major highways on the east coast (Hume, Pacific, New England etc) are fine - though be careful at dusk. More remote roads are another thing.
there are these small gadgets that you can put on the front of your cars that emit a high pitch whistle sound...it alerts wildlife that something is coming so they can move off the road..handy if you have a tendency to drive country roads at dusk frequently...
I love your videos! Such a beautiful and honest character you are.. I wish you all the best! If you ever get the chance, I highly suggest visiting The Kimberly region in north WA! I’ve had the privilege of living in Kununurra for the last 10 months or so and there are far too many amazing things to see and explore/experience up here!🖤
America = PB & J. Australia = Vegemite
Wild turkey is everywhere in the US. Just go to any bottle shop.
Those half police officers might be what's known as the Police security Officers they guard public sectors rather then respond to calls.
I think he is talking about Sticker Lickers...
TukiCat we used to call them Brown Bombers due to the colour of their uniforms but we now call them Grey Ghosts.
@@peterbuckley3877 I am in SA, so maybe different state name
TukiCat they seem to have a number of different names from state to state but I think we all have in common what we all really call them.
@@tukicat1399 I'm in SA I call them security guards.
We have wild turkeys everywhere beCAUSE we don't eat them lol
True enough! Brush turkeys used to be uncommon back when we ate them. They are a protected species now, and are invading suburban gardens to steal people’s mulch.
Brett Evill they don’t steal it.. they rearrange it. Plus, we invaded their patch
Tough and scrawny I believe.
and they are protected to boot , but I have been told they dont have that much meat on them and so are not worth eating .
Recipe for cooking Brush Turkey. Get a big pot - add half a dozen rocks, turkey - boil for two days. Chuck out the Turkey and eat the rocks.
Hey man! I already commented earlier, but I would love to see you make a video explaining the process or more specifically your process of moving to Australia as a permanent resident.
Good video hope there's another one good job. Hope you are finding time to enjoy yourself wherever you are in Australia.
Thank you! I hope so too
You forgot the best thing about Australia vs USA... NO GUNS
Years ago we had a "gun buy back" where 650,000 where bought back by the Gov.
LOVE your videos. As an Aussie, I always learn something. You're very observant and so embracing of other cultures and always so positive. Never lose that :) Now you've done your second "differences" video you've pretty much nailed everything that mostly strikes me about the differences between the States and Australia.
The 10 biggest differences after my first trip to the USA were (and I think you've identified most of these:
1. The toilet water is too close for comfort, if you know what I mean
2. My first iced coffee in the States was all water and I was like..."what IS this?" I know now to ask for an Iced Cappucino.
3. Where is the mini fridge in my hotel room? What am I gonna do with an ice machine and a bucket?
4. There are often no kettles in hotel rooms to boil water. If you're lucky there's a little filter coffee machine.
5. I couldn't get all the flavours of chips (crisps) that I like here. Lots of corn chips though.
6. Restaurant meals are HUGE in the States. My friend and I now usually just share an entree.
7. After a while the sales tax in the States gets you down. Just tell me "how much is it?"
8. The US police seem mean, angry and kinda scary. Here most of them talk to you like a mate. I reckon it's the 2nd Amendment's fault.
9. It's hard to get plain milk to put in your tea/coffee -- there's an awful lot of Half n Half though.
10. You can't get a Lemon Lime and Bitters anywhere. So common in Oz. As a bar tender you'll know what I mean :)
I didn’t even realise that our notes were different sizes! Learn something new every day.
Sensational video mate!
When I visited the US I wanted a lemonade, what I got was not what I wanted. Lemonade is australia is sprite, fizzy drink compared to lemon flavoured flat drink in the US! I live in Tasmania a lot of restaurants we actually pay for our meals when we order, we go up to a counter and place our order, pay, sometimes receive a table number. Then when we are done with our meal we can just leave.
The Lemonade thing confused me when I first got here haha. I talk about it a little in my 100 Aussie words video
Is Lemonade in US similar to what we call Pub Squash or a Solo?
Australians aren't more irreligious, we just dont think it needs to be public knowledge
long gone are the days when people here would cling to religion because it was the socially acceptable thing to do. That still very much happens in the US. That's wh US actors thank God when they win.
14: the Petrol pumps do have the little leaver to click in, so you don't have to keep squeezing the pump....
love these videos
We say "crumbed" not "breaded"!
Tristan, while in Australia, you should meet Brett Lee.
Yes I was thinking the same thing because he look like a younger version of Brett Lee.
Brett Lee, aka Bing Lee, or “Binga”. You should study Aussie nicknames Tristan!
Awesome video mate!
Thanks!
Your videos make happy 😊 keep up the great work
If you dial 911 it still works in Australia, they thought it a good idea for tourists.
That's good. No joke my first week here I was coaching gymnastics and a kid broke his arm. I had to call an ambulance and didn't know the number lol. But it all worked out in the end
@@TristanKuhn If you think about it triple 0 makes sense, even a dumbwit will understand it, press 0 three times, 911 is a little bit more complicated lol.
Good to hear it all went well. What a first week that must have been, were you shitting bricks? Or were they all cool about it?
@@dawnrazornephilim Back when 000 was first used though it was literally the longest 3 digit phone number you could call.
@@RandomStuff-he7lu lol, math humour, I like it.
@@dawnrazornephilim Rotary phones. 0 was the last number you had to spin to.
Good list.
Also watched your video on eating Aussie foods and wondered: Have you been introduced to the "Tim Tam Slam" yet? Google it. :)
Oh I agree - he has to do the Tim Tam Slam! :D
In Australia we have coupons in a book called the Entertainment book.
yes, a book of coupons you have to buy.... and once your kids leave primary school you never see it again, thank god.
That was just as informative for me seeing the differences in the states ...no controversy in this one I hope 😄
Hahaha can't drive at night?? Never had any issue driving at night.
I've become addicted to your videos. I love the light-hearted humble attitude and your beautiful sense of humour. You keep things fast paced and fun. Thank you so much for the education
Thank you! Means a lot!
I’m from Australia Adelaide I love it there! But sadly I moved to the uk... But eventually I will move back in the future! Xx
Also with the sun at my school we went to the public pool for sport and we had the rule no rashy no splashy
There are those clip things on gas pumps...maybe not where you live.
Those blue sour candies you spoke of, are different here partly due to natural colours and flavours being used...we used to have artificial colours eg E102 tartazine, but we tend to use natural where p9ssible.
We also used to have jelly back in the 1970s but it wasn’t popular.
Also those half police are actually property officers , who basically look after government assets eg railway stations etc...they don’t have guns and in Victoria they are employed via our police dept, and free police up to do what they do best.
Exactly! That's what I like about them. They can free up police to do more serious jobs. And yes, I always see them around government buildings, public transport, and places like that
One thing about pronunciation. In Australia, we say " Bee-troot instead of "beet-root".
Beechroot
@@natv1987 haha yeah you're right.Same in NZ; beechroot
Fun fact, because of how popular American tv is, in Australia if you dial 911 it will redirect you to 000.
I did that once before the last time I was in Australia, and I got nothing at all.
Another one...that you actually touched on in this....we don't say 'breaded'. We say crumbed
you seriously need to change the title of that "Australians hate dogs" video. It's SOOO wrong in so many ways :( :( :(
Did he say that? hahaha. Come to Potts Point. Everyone has a little yappy dog here, they love them more than they love other people
Hey Tristan, another cool vid mate, thanks 😁... just wondering, you referred to "crumbed" meat as being "breaded..?"
We used to do coupons in aus - but it didn't attract enough customers so they pretty much stopped.
Whats this "Half" police he's on about? Council rangers? Confused Australian here.
A PSO - Protective Services Officer
Also, in Melbourne, we have Authorised Officers. AOs check your ticket on public transport, while PSOs enforce security at train stations and other public buildings. Being a PSO can be seen as a stepping stone to becoming a police officer, so calling them 'half police' is pretty accurate.
@@PlayerClarinet The English have something similar, glorified security guards, I give them no notice.
Ask me for a ticket, otherwise fuck off.
Yes, what @sea BelowMe and @PlayerClarinet said is what I'm talking about. They're usually in public/government areas
Tristan Kuhn PSO’s won’t be out in public spaces patrolling, they are a subdivision of QLD police and their primary job is to protect all government owned and leased buildings. You will see them out doing patrols of government buildings, but the majority of them you will find in QLD government buildings in the city. Except 1WS there is a mix of private security, PSO’s and QLD police. Brisbane trains and buses have QRAO’s and SNO’s patrolling them (Queensland Rail Authorised Officers & Senior Network Officers). PSO’s have the same rights as police, they can arrest you and lay charges.
You defiantly can advertise alcohol
defiantly, is that because it's illegal?
And the best cold beer is Vic... Vic... Bitter
@@footy2rock God I hate Andrews and I live in Vic, yes....I am very bitter.
@@dawnrazornephilim that really cracked me up!!
Yes, I was wrong about that. Thanks for the correction
Variation in school years is based on our seasonal differences. Sometimes we get 'coupons' on the back of our supermarket receipts
Maybe it's different in each state but in the North East we do have a points system on our licenses
The ‘half police’ are Local Council Rangers, employed by the local government. People often have Peanut Butter and honey sandwiches.
Never had peanut butter with honey.... i'm in Brisbane. But I have had peanut butter with banana!
Jenessa Large Put the peanut butter in both pieces of bread, and the honey or jam on only one piece. Why? Because the peanut butter will act as a ‘seal’ for the bread and will stop the honey soaking into the bread between making the sandwich in the morning and eating it at lunchtime.
A lot of states have the points system on your license
Great video thank youuuuu
Glad you liked it! Thank you!
You are doing a great job. I've lived all over Australia and there are exceptions here and there to the differences that you are mentioning, but in general, you are pretty well spot on.
can't say i've ever had a problem finding turkey at the supermarket. You can buy whole roasts, prepackaged slices, or fresh slices from the deli section. But yes we prefer chicken, and turkey generally only comes out for Christmas
My fave: turkey roll!!!! :)
@@YankDownUnder62 and yep you can also of course get turkey at Subway here. i forgot to mention you can also get frozen turkey in the supermarket
@@YankDownUnder62 you can also get a really nice turkey & mustard at Woolworths
DaveOz as I have! When I wanted it...and I do not do Subway. Vietnamese bloke down the block is cheaper and his rolls are chiclets. Can only eat half! :)
How many of these points are repeats of points from the previous video?
The school year is different because of when summer occurs. The new school year starts after the summer holidays which of course is different in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
You are such a sweetheart! I am glad that you are enjoying your time in Aus :)
No hat no play was so painful in junior school, they mostly have given up now though I’m in year 9, we stay inside or in shade anyway though cause it’s either to hot or cold
Love your work bud. Onya.
the wild turkeys ur talking about are called bush turkeys
Interesting observations
Thank you
Do you need travel trips for Brisbane?
Welcome to Brisbane, I have visited places but always will come home
Australian Barista here to tell you about different ice coffees (in accordance to how my work place does them)
Ice coffee: Cold coffee shot (if we run out of cold we'll use a hot shot with ice cubes), vanilla syrup, ice cream, milk, whipped cream, chocolate powder on top.
Ice mocha: same as Ice coffee but with chocolate syrup instead of vanilla.
Ice chocolate: like an ice mocha but without the coffee
Ice latte: Cold coffee shot, ice, milk.
Ice long black: Hot coffee shot, ice, water
1: yes we can drive at night. maybe not in your state but what state r u staying in?
Sale stickers in supermarkets are generally yellow so they stand out.
been a while since I have been but when I worked there my pay cycles were either weekly or fortnightly never really monthly, must have changed
Some of the things you mentioned do change from region to region within Australia, hope you enjoy the rest your stay.
Gotcha. And thanks!
I live 2 and half hours away from the nearest city, pretty sure the one after that is like at least 5 hours away possibly more and that’s a very small city
The school years are the same if you think about the seasons....ours start and finish in summer and so do yours pretty much.
Good point
Love peanut butter and jam sandwiches. Always eaten them since young kid. Had them in Australia and in New Zealand growing up.
Tristan how long are you here in brisbane for?
No longer in Brissy
@@TristanKuhn pity would have asked you out for a drink
Quick note (no pun intended) on our currency...the new plastic ones also have raised braille type dots to denote the currency amount for visually impaired.
14 is here, at least in Melbourne. Loving the video’s
Not sure where you eating, but we often get the check at our table. And not sure where you shop, but many places give you a thar for trying in clothes or very least note how many.
The school year is different so that you get summer off
We have cheque’s not checks
Wi-Fi isn't slow at all in Australia. It's the internet that is slower. There is a difference.
But considering the size of our Australia and the population density of 0.83 people per square mile it is satisfactory. In the US there are 91 people per square mile.
