Most people in Australia speak English. Hobart has a lot of immigrants, so I hear people speaking Arabic, Spanish, Italian, French and more.
We use Australian dollars or AUD. The money isn’t paper like it is at home: it’s more like plastic! The bills are bendy, so you can’t crumple them. This currency also waterproof with a clear plastic window in the middle of the bill.
Prices here are similar to Massachusetts. So, a bottle of water costs the equivalent of $2 (US).
I like to stop at the market on my walk home from class and buy ingredients to make dinner. This week, I made pasta with sausage, spinach and tomatoes.
I like to listen to music that reminds me of home, so I’ve been listening to Noah Kahan’s music. He’s a singer from Vermont. Some of my friends from Tasmania like his music, which is cool because he’s from New England like you and I!
