It is also very well designed. I can appreciate the challenges people experience when they travel - be it to another city in their own country, or much further afield. I am from Vancouver, Canada, and have travelled to the western States, Mexico, and Europe. I have visited Vienna several times myself so I understand your comparisons between there and Perth. I had to laugh at a few of them because Vancouver is also considered "prudish" with their liquor laws, most beaches and change rooms, and also our love of queueing (except never for a pub when you are thirsty) and tipping everyone who serves or does anything for you. But discovering the differences is part of why most people love to travel. It's better to laugh at your own mistakes!
