6 interesting facts about Australia

Hey!!!

Starting this huge week by posting some facts about the daily routine and life in Sydney.

  1. Here we have the OPAL card to use public transport. You need to recharge it via app or on physical stores like 7-eleven
  2. For some people this might not be different, but you drive in the right hand side! Like England, for example.
  3. Australia has a time-zone of 30-minute difference. Yes, really. Australian Central Standard Time (ACST) is 30 minutes earlier than Sydney, for example.
  4. There are more kangaroos than humans in the country. And we can actually buy kangaroo meat in supermarkets.
  5. You can’t buy alcoholic drinks in supermarkets. The government does it to make it more difficult for people to buy alcohol unsupervised. You will have to go to a liquor store.
  6. Australia’s capital is not Sydney! I know, you might be shocked but the capital is Canberra.
