    • Australians are friendly people and don't take kindly to rude or abrubt people.

    The main advice I can give is smile, thank people for helping you, and treat everyone with respect.

    Tipping is not required but appreciated, you can always round up the bill at a restaurant or in a taxi. E.g. $5.50 to $6.00

    If I am lost I usually ask a shopkeeper who isn't busy.

     We are indeed friendly people who don't appreciate abrupt and/or rude people. Spot on tip Markeeta! Just back from 2 weeks in Paris - Fell in love with it, but Sydney is still the most beautiful city I've visited (I live in Sydney).    		mcharlton Tue Mar 5, 2002 23:08 UTC
