Since European settlement began around 200 years ago, people of all nationalities have made Australia their home. More than 100 ethnic groups have joined the original Aboriginal inhabitants, making Australia one of the most culturally diverse countries in the world. Australia may be a young nation, but has already carved out a unique culture, known for its warm, friendly people... and an enviable record in sport!

Australia also contains a great diversity of urban landscapes. Sydney is one of the world’s great cities, with its spectacular setting, wrapped around a stunning harbour, with 240 kilometres of foreshore featuring cliffs and beaches at every turn.

Melbourne, Brisbane, and Adelaide all offer uniquely Australian experiences in relaxed urban settings — Melbourne is home to many cultural and sporting events; Brisbane has beautiful weather and is close to the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast beaches; and Adelaide has a civilised charm.
