In today's episode...

Aussies are known for being super friendly, but if you’re new here, chatting up a stranger can still feel intimidating! Dad and I break down the art of Aussie small talk. We share tips for getting over that awkward hurdle, finding easy conversation starters (hint: pets are always a winner!), and why being genuinely interested is way more important than perfect English. Get ready to ditch those language learning fears and start making friends Down Under!
