Todd: Hey, Rebecca, can you talk a little bit about Australia and just your thoughts about your home country?


Rebecca: I guess I spend most of my time in Sydney, but one of the things l really love about Sydney is that it's very multicultural 1, so it's an interesting place to live because every day you can meet people from all around the world and on the bus going to work you can hear maybe five or six different languages around you. You can eat food from lots of different places and of course you can talk to people with all different sorts of points of view, different backgrounds. I think it's exciting for that reason.


Todd: So you're saying that Australia is basically 2 a very multicultural place. Is this mainly just in the cities or is this all around Australia?


Rebecca: Well, to be honest, that is mostly just the cities. I guess the other really big thing I like about Australia is it's nature. Australia is a very clean and beautiful place. It has true wilderness 3, which is not very common in some countries in the world. You can go places and you will see nobody. I really do mean nobody. I love that, so you can go to a beach and you can be the only person there.


Todd: Actually, speaking of nature, you know, when you think of Australia you think of the Barrier 4 Reef 5 or maybe the jungles up north or like the desert in the middle. What landscapes have you been to?


Rebecca: Um, I'm really lucky actually because when I was a kid my parent took me out of school for a few months and we traveled all around Australia in a van so I got to see all different kinds of landscapes in Australia: desert, Barrier Reef, mountains, forests, anything, yeah, but actually most of Australia is desert so I've seen a lot of desert.
