::Excursions with a difference::
From a
distance Australia is a large island, actually the world’s largest and a
continent. Seen from Australia, it looks and feels like several
countries. You will get the same impression when talking with the
Australians, not only is there a great variety of origins, but also a
great variety of English speaking origins: Australians of several
generations, British, Irish, Scottish, South African, African, Arab,
American, Canadian, New Zealanders.
So what
is the Australian accent? Say that it is an intermediate stage between
British and American; a little sharper than American and less pitchy
than British with a tendency for short cuts… you will find out.
We
want to take you through a variety of experiences; our priority beyond a
number of amazing sites that you will discover, is for you to meet with
the people who live there.
