Well instead of having to worry about the noise pollution. You will have to worry about wrestling a spider the size of a small child.

Australia was barely populated in 1850, while Great Britain was pumping out tonnes of smog during the industrial revolution.

London was rated one of the dirtiest cities in Europe about 10 years ago, and the buildings reflected the air pollution of the city.

If you really want to get away from all the smog, you need to get away from countries/areas where there's serious overpopulation (Great Britain, and England particularly is one of them).

Problem with moving to Australia? There's the absence of an ozone layer in part of it...enjoy having the sun but not being able to safely bask in it :p

It's also difficult to emigrate to...but there is a work 'holiday' program available for youngish Americans. Definitely something to look into.

Meh, non event.

Wear sunscreen, or don't be a dickhead in the sun without protection. Same for anywhere else in the world.

Eh, Australia isn't that bad, guess it depends where you go.
Getting decent net can be somewhat difficult.
And then you have the whole thing of playing games during off peak US time.
And 'Australia Tax' on everything you want to buy.
