Unlike the USA, it seems the oldest Aussie towns are the state capitals like Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth.

I'm not a big city person, personally. I like small towns with pretty and historic architecture and nice nature.
Gonna be taking the working holiday program maybe, I don't NEED to work that much, more "holiday" but I'm not much into huge metropolises. I like small towns and villages, the kind of places that feel homey.

Specifically in NSW, VIC, SA, and WA won't be spending much time in NT, or QLD because I hate heat.

Remember: small, historic, quaint, and good nature.

Opinions??

That bakery is fantastic.

I don't think you can get a more Australian vista than this one from Bowral...

If you want the best beach in WA go to Esperace. Must see!!

I don't and I don't wish to... I mean even playing the game is dire! Only good bit is when you through and hit the ball, everyone else just stands around doing nothing! Ergh, boring! Football and Rugby on the other hand, are proper sports!
