Among the most widely spoken languages are: English, Chinglish, Grecinglish, Espanglish, Italinglish and Portuguenglish.Y this is not everything. Walking through the streets of Melbourne may notice that even in the gastronomic mix of cultures is not expected. Walking, for example, by the beautiful streets of Clayton (Australian suburb) notice the amount of bars and shops of different backgrounds that form.

Perth is the capital of Western Australia. Located on the coast is washed by the Indian Ocean. Its population of over one and a half million inhabitants, became one of the most populated cities in the country. It has a very active business district, situated on the banks of the river that runs through the city, the Swan. The port where exports are gold, nickel and aluminum, runs from the time of founding of the city by the British settlers in 1829.

Following the practice of cities on the coast of Australia due to its proximity to the sea and the possibility of fleeing before a possible attack of the aborigines, the city was considered as such since 1856 by the British crown.
