#1 Going To A BBQ

As Aussies are some of the friendliest people on the planet, you will probably make a few friends on your vacation. They might even invite you to a BBQ on weekends where you can meet their friends and family. You should never show up empty handed if that happens. 

Whether it’s a salad dish, beer, meat for the BBQ or a dessert, you should bring a gift to the host which can be used immediately for this occasion.  

You’ve probably already heard a few ​Australian slang words​ even if you’ve never been to Australia. As they speak English, we will immediately assume that it’s really easy to understand everything they are saying, but that’s not always the case. For instance, instead of saying ketchup, they will use the phrase tomato sauce. As we already mentioned BBQ, Aussies will probably invite you to barbie, so don’t get confused and think it’s something else. It’s just their word for BBQ! 

If you’re thinking of visiting both Sydney and Melbourne, you need to keep in mind that both of these cities are really huge and you’ll need a fair amount of time to explore them right. It would be best to book a flight with arrival to one city and departure from another to make the most of your time in Australia.

If you love luxury, well-designed hotels, you should consider booking your accommodation in Accor Hotels Melbourne​ and really enjoy your stay in this city. Sydney and Melbourne are very different when it comes to many things, so you shouldn’t leave Australia before you visit them both. 

It’s summer in your country and you would love to fly to Australia to enjoy the season in a different country. Be careful, as Australian summer starts when the winter starts on the Northern hemisphere. That’s why you will find a lot of good deals for celebrating Christmas and New Year’s Eve in Australia as it’s summer there at that time.

If you plan to go there in the summer, wear plenty of sunblock because ​the sun is very strong​. As a giant country, the season is not the same in all regions so make sure you check it online before you go.
