Why I chose to blog about Australia

Hello readers! This is my first blogpost ever! Kind of exciting... I'm just an ordinary 15 year old schoolgirl. It's because of my englishclass I'm sitting here, creating a blog about an English-speaking country. I thought it would be fun to know more about the lovely Australia. I've never been there myself, but I want to go there sometime.
    As a TV-lover, you notice there are a lot of shows coming from Australia; movies, scenery-documentaries, cooking-competitions... you name it. Their dialect, in my opinion, just gives everything character and makes it non-american.
    Australia is such a thrilling and exotic country in my eyes. The perhaps first thing I think of when I hear about Australia is kangaroos, the barrier-reef and old movies. I'll see if this project will change my mind about things. That remains to be seen...
