Australia my fascination

Australia has always been my fascination. I have been tossing myself from one end of the planet to the other for many years now. And although I spend most of my time here I hesitate to call it home. Whenever I am away I quite often think about Australia as an ideal place, but when I am here I feel like I am missing out on something. Now after 8 years here I can't wait to get back to Europe. Many long hours on the Internet don't give the same feeling as being there.
