Perth & the West of Australia

by pinkbear - last update: Jul 4, 2003

Perth - The City

A gig I went to with Perth as a Backdrop
Perth is my hometown - I've lived here since I was born. It's a pretty isolated City in terms of the rest of the Australian capital Cities, i.e. Canbarra, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Darwin and Hobart, however well worth a visit if you can.

Perth has a rather laid back atmosphere with a pretty easy going population. Definitely none of the traffic hassels of Sydney or Melbourne. There is a real water culture - with an abundance of beaches and the Swan River available to enjoy.
I would definitely recommend visiting Perth during the summer months (December through to February), that way you can really take advantage of the Swan River and the Beaches.

Pros:"Picturesque - Perth is a pretty city, however perhaps more importantly it is the port to the rest of Western Australia which abounds with natural beauty. Even as a west aussie it regularly blows my mind."
Cons:"Isolation - If you're travelling to the eastern states getting to Perth is pretty expensive."
In A Nutshell:"It may be a million miles from other great cities - but that's what makes it so nice."
