Culture shocks when moving to Australia 🇦🇺 the aussie life 😂 #tips #british #australia #supermarket

What are some of your favourite culture shocks?

[Piccolo..]

You're OK. Birds generally don't attack in the bathroom. That's an outdoor thing.

I'm Aussie and you gotta watch out for those damn frogs. They be on a mission to slap yo booty while you poop

The best part of the ‘no alcohol in the supermarket’ is that the bottle shop is always right next door and usually attached to the supermarket by an internal door. Like at this point they’re just taking the piss.

An Australian telling you not to worry about the spiders has to be the most Aussie statement here lmao

[gabdominates]

I could hear the British accent from her face expressions lol

The "you can't buy wine in a grocery store...depending on what state you are in" applies to the United States too.

[That_crazyDramillion]

Me, an aussie thinking: yeah, there are much more shocks on the way! The bird one is so accurate tho 🤣

I work as at a grocery store in Canada that’s close to the border, and during the summer I can’t tell you how often people coming through from the states who look for alcohol are shocked when I tell them we don’t sell alcohol in the grocery store. 😂

If you are gonna be scared of spiders, it's the small and colourful ones to be wary of. Keep the big ones around, they oddly help a lot with spider control

[wobbyenna]

Honestly the snake thing depends on where you are, I always put the lid down after because they can come up the toilet from outside that and tree frogs in the toilet can be a real problem😂

[yuqing]

there's always a wine shop next to Woolworth. Woolworth are EVERYWHERE

[symonedees]

I just learned so much about Australia

[Warriorcatsfurry]

Here’s another one for you: you can’t sleep peacefully at night if your camping or anything because of a type of bird that sound like a child wailing in the distance.

Edit: this is literally the most likes I have ever gotten on a comment 🤌. Thx

the liquor laws in america are so different from state to state. some states still have dry counties lol

[MisTerSoltee]

the fact im swedish and when i went to nz there so so many magpies coming to my backyard so i feed them and feed them now i think their my pets 😭

[blakehanna]

The word "bottlio" instantly changed my internal accent from American to Australian

[melaniegutierrez]

Whoever told you that you don't have to watch out for spiders and snakes was definitely lying 😂 specifically the spiders one 😂

[AndNowIWrite]

Here in Portugal and every European country I've traveled to, wine, whiskey, beer, everything is at the supermarket.

[annemarielabreche]

😂😂😂 the birds litteraly attacked me and my food ever day 😂 most aggressive in Byron lol

[Ritzer]

Yeah that last one is dependant on state by state. But essentially places like South Australia and Queensland have legislation that separates alcohol from supermarkets so we have bottle shops (liquor store) instead. Basically a way to regulate.
