Wednesday last week in a class of cross cultural understanding we met with native speakers from Australia named Kirrilly. He told me a little about the culture in Australia. The culture of Australia is essentially a Western culture influenced by the unique geography of the Australian continent and by the diverse input of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples with the traditional weapon is boomerang. The predominance of the English language, the existence of a democratic Westminster system of government, Christianity as the dominant religion and the popularity of sports such as cricket and rugby evidence a significant Anglo-Celtic heritage, but Australia today hosts a great diversity of cultural practices and pursuits.

            Beside that she told me about the original animal in Australia there are, Kangaroo, koala, and wombat this animal was almost similar to the koala or porcupine. Karrilly says the favorite places are often visit by tourists such as teampark and goald coast, and at sidney opera house is a most attractive place frequently visited citizens. She also told me about his spare time activities such as watching tv, going to the beach or play basketball. Australian People usually breakfast with milk, cereal and sometimes also fried rice. The Australian people pleased with music pop, unlike in Indonesia being the girl band and boy band. For the matter of education the students there got off 3 months in a year.

            Karrilly tells the first experience when it comes to Indonesia especially in salatiga, she was not able to sleep because of his residence near the mosque, and when there was adzan sound very loud once, but now she's already accustomed. She also felt a little strange with the traditional market here, because a merchant of meat and fish so one with other merchant vegetable so it make the unpleasant smell. Another interesting experience when he visited the prambanan Temple in Yogyakarta, a lot of people asking for a photo with her and she felt like an artist. Kirrilly was also very pleased with batik, and was very interested to learn making batik.

            I think enough about my experience with native speaker, and I hope it can increase the insight about a culture. Okeeee give your comment… ^__^
