I'd say the majority of my friends are Australians, although I have some good American friends, but I think with Aussies, we just get it. We don't take each other too seriously, which is a relief.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I get along with Australians really well. Everyone's usually really cool, and it's always a drag to leave.
I think Australians do well here because we feel a bit naughty, like we're in America and if they only knew how much fun we were having, we'd all get thrown out, you know.
I think that Americans find the Australian humour and the energy of Australians very refreshing - we are quite self-deprecating, we're light-hearted and can have a laugh.
Sometimes when Australians go overseas, it's as though the 'Aussie' is refined out of them. I don't know why. It's never happened to me, because I'm really proud of it. I'm not embarrassed about where I'm from or who I am any more. I know who I am. I don't fit in everywhere, but I know where I do fit in.
I love Australian people.
I think probably Australians have just a little more taste than most people.
I have always been attracted to Australians and Australia.
Australians are a fantastic bunch of people but the attention can be overwhelming for someone like me.
It only takes a room of Americans for the English and Australians to realise how much we have in common.
I haven't met everyone from all different cultures, but I do know Aussies are very tough.
