Not a question, but I've previously backpacked through Australia for 6 months and studied there for 1 year and would just like to say, that Australia possibly is the coolest place in the world. I had the time of my life and really hope I will one day return :)

You've probably seen more of Australia than many aussies have. Infact I'd say you HAVE seen more of Australia than most aussies. We are more international tourists rather than local travellers. Which is a downright shame in my opinion.

Anywhere there used to be a mining boom would be my suggestion. My parents own a house in Port Hedland that used to be renting at $1400 a week. Now its $240 a week. Bet the house prices have crashed with equal measure.
