Truly if someone picked me up and said I would have to make a new life in rural Australia; I myself would simply start looking for some policy maker to literally kill ! ! !

Australia is the lucky country down under as long as you never move more than 99 kilometers from salt water. . .

Its a lovely country as long as you do not want to do much there lol, too hot, to dry; to forgotten . . .

But you simply have gotta love the people, if oyu took the people and the Red Dust out of Australia you would have nothing left : )

Welcome to Steemit and yes I did enjoy your article, just amazed anyone could be so stupid to dump a ton of Syrians into outback Aussieland, amazing ; )
