Where? - Geography facts

Australia is an island, a very large island. In fact, Australia is the second largest island in the world (after Greenland). Australia is located in the continent of Oceania. The total area of Australia is 7.682.300 km². Since Australia is located in the sea, the country has no real neighboring countries. It lives 22,597,955 people in Australia.

The climate of Australia varies from place to place. In the northern parts of Australia it is mostly a tropical climate. And in the south a subtropical climate. It is usually very hot in Australia. So if you are going there, don't forget to put on your sunscreen!

Australia's highest mountain is Mount Kosciuszko. It is 2.228 m high. And the biggest lake in Australia is called Lake Eyre. It covers one-sixth of the continent, so it's therefore very big.

Who? - Famous people

Australia is a very interesting country I think. It has a beautiful and warm climate, many unique animal species, fine cities, beautiful environment...
Well, I could keep on writing about great things from Australia even more. Australia has lots of great and lovely things. But one thing I never really thought of before is how many big celebrities who come from there. They have quite a special dialect in Australia so I can usually tell if someone is from there. But in the case of celebrities, I usually don't focus on the dialect. I usually focus on other things such as how they look and behave.

There are many celebrities who come from Australia, which I never before had imagined to come from there. For example, did you know that Hugh Jackman is from Australia? I didn't. And also Nicole Kidman is from Australia. But compared with Hugh Jackman, she was not born in Australia. But she grew up there.
