I think Australia is a good place to live in and many people would agree with me. After all hundreds of people come here to start a new life. People like Australia because it is a fantastic country and it is very interesting. There are a lot of beautiful places to visit. You could travel around for a year and still not see everything. When I came to Australia for the first time I went to the city and I saw beautiful places like the Aquarium whwre I saw some beautiful fish. Then I caught a ferry to the Opera House and I saw very nice views. I was surprised! I took a lot of pictures. In the afternoon I went to eat some food in a restaurant and I saw nice and beautiful people. I enjoyed everything just for the first time. After I went to another places and I saw many spectacular views. Life in Australia is easier then in other countries, I think, because in Australia if you have a job you are paid enough to live on. If you don't, the government puts you on training program or gives you unemployment benefits. You could also study in ACL, TAFE or any where you like depends how old you are and what level of English can you speak or write. Finally Australia has many people from different countries and different cultures. When you come to Australia you can find people who speak your language and understand your tradition. You can also learn about the traditions of people from other cultures. It is interesting when you know many people from different countries and cultures. For all these reasons, I wouldn't want to live any where else in the world.
