Video: How to Do It Like an Aussie

Posted on March 9th, 2009 by Laura Byrne Paquet in Books

Although I strongly suspect these two Aussie women, Pip and Kym, are playing up their Aussieness for the cameras, I still enjoyed this little video that tries to teach non-Australians a bit of Down Under culture–from how to make bush tea to what the heck “Good on ya” means.


It’s a promo to draw attention to their book, “How to Do It Like an Aussie With Tongs and Thongs” (make all the jokes you like about the title–I assume that’s the intention).
