One of the most developed countries in the world, Australia is the globe’s 6th largest nation by area. The population of the country is very low. Only around twenty-three million people reside here. The country is home to raging rivers, pristine lakes, mesmerizing rain forests, tropical islands, majestic alps, and deserts. It also possesses some of the globe’s most breathtaking natural beauties like the largest coral reef system in the world ‘the Great Barrier Reef’, the Twelve Apostles, THE Bungle Bungles in Western Australia and the Ayers Rock.

Aussies are some of the friendliest, loving and accommodating people in the world. The climate here is moderate i.e in winter it is approximately 15ºC (59ºF) and is somewhat wet. In the summer the weather hovers around 30ºC.
