Hey there! I have lived in California for most of my life, and I've also been to your country as well. Your country is my favorite vacation destination out of anywhere else I've been, by the way. And your country has the HOTTEST fucking guys I've ever seen. They all looked like 6 foot 5 rugby players, I was drooling in fucking heaven while I was there. rool:
In California there are many cool things to do, if you're more into nature hiking there's Yosemite and the famous waterfall that you can hike up to, depending on where in Cali you're visiting (NorCal or SoCal), I would recommend different things. You definitely MUST check out San Francisco in northern California, and some of the beaches of San Diego and Orange County.
San Francisco is my favorite city in the USA, it's so vibrant and an intellectual and artistic metropolis. It is also where the hippie movement started in the 1960's, in Ashbury, San Francisco. The food is also DELICIOUS as well.
But these places are 1-hour plane ride away from each other, I definitely suggest flying by plane because a car ride from San Francisco to southern Cali would take 9 hours one-way.
If you want a list of restaurants to eat at, let me know what cities you will be visiting.

I'm totally down dude. I'll PM you letting you know where I live and shit. I actually live a couple miles away from a really nice beach too. Just warning you though, the Pacific Ocean by our coast is super freezing cold--nothing warm like Australian waters!
What kind of food you into? California is known for having really good seafood, and you should definitely eat lots of Asian food while you are here. The Asian population is highest in the state of California and New York City in the United States, so authentic Asian food is the best in these areas.
And yeah, Aussie and Brazilian boys have to be the hottest fucking guys. Seriously, what is up with every male Aussie under age 30 being like 7 feet tall and looking like a rugby player?
DEFINITELY hit up Yosemite and San Francisco while you're there.

Sweet sounds like a plan! I'm down in Melbourne, so the beach can be very fucking COLD at times! I have never really been properly introduced to seafood, as my parents have never been big on it nor have any past partners. I do enjoy Asian food, Mexican, Italian.. still exploring my taste buds really, though am pretty open to trying most things.
We aren't all 7foot tall.. in fact most of us aren't. I think the average height down here would be around the 5'10" - 6'1" range.
I do love me a good adventure! I have seen and heard lots of good things about Yosemite.. and San Fran too.
Anyone else who lives in the state and would like to hang feel free to let me know. We can have beers, lunch, dinner, go to the clubs etc, go hiking.. I'm easy go up for anything

You should definitely try MEXICAN food while in California! I've had Mexican food in Australia, and no offense but it was shit. Mexican food outside of Mexico, Texas, and California, and a couple other places are pretty shitty. Not authentic at all. Mexican food in Japan (where I'm from) is the absolute WORST!
I strongly recommend hole-in-the-wall type places for authentic Mexican, not chain restaurants. The kind of places where even their corn tortillas are freshly hand-made.
Italian, the East Coast does way better than the West Coast. I'd stick with Thai food, Korean food, Japanese food, Vietnamese food, and Mexican food while you're here. Although, I've had really really good Thai while I was in Australia, since there's a high southeast Asian population there too.

Oh, and you should definitely eat at In-N-Out Burger while your'e in Cali. It's available in only a couple of states besides California. Bomb-ass fast food burgers that only cost $2 each. It's not like THE BEST burger ever or anything, I mean it doesn't compare to a gourmet burger obviously, but it's something California is really famous for.
Whitecastle Burger is famous in northern California like around the San Francisco/Oakland type area. Avoid Oakland though, especially east Oakland, it's very very dangerous. America is full of crime, it's not like your safe Australian country. Keep your wits about you when visiting certain areas in Los Angeles and things like that.

Oh please. If anything, Australians are just as bad, sometimes even worse, than Americans. In fact, that's one of the reasons I loved Australia so much, is because it reminded me so much of Americans, but on so much more of an extreme level.
A lot of Australians are super loud, obnoxious, arrogant drunkards who love to get drunk and start fights, they are also super racist (actually Australians are IMO WAY more racist than Americans), but at the same time there is a huge surfer and weed culture that reminded me a lot of Cali.

first off get that "arrogant American" ideal out of your head if you plan on making any good connections down here because no one likes a narcissist. And second definitely go to in-n-out their burgers are freakin amazing

So, I just found out the city that you will be in, and the city you will be staying at is PERFECT for Mexican fare. The city you're at is a predominantly hispanic and Mexican community, so you will be able to find LOTS of authentic Mexican food while there.
I also gave you the name of the authentic Korean restaurant where the owner of the restaurant used to work as the head chef for Kim Jong Il in North Korea. So you KNOW it's authentic Korean food. It's only about 20 minutes driving distance away from where you'll be staying.
Check my PM's. It's not expensive at all either, for $40 you can basically get a 5-course meal for 2 people and get SUPER full.
