A jar of Vegemite usually lasts several months because you only put a slight thin spread on toast. The great thing about Canberra is there is so much to do like galleries, libraries, museums and they are mostly free. One place to definitely visit is the Australian War Memorial. It is a fantastic museum, along with the reverance they pay to service men and women, a place that honours their service and sacrifice.

As an Australian I eat Vegemite toast, it’s definitely an acquired taste. But I would never eat it like that. That is just way too much Vegemite. You need to spread a nice layer of butter on the toast and a very very thin layer of Vegemite.

Welcome to Australia 😊 Yes, most ppl are friendly and will help you adjust to life here. All you have to do is ask. As for Vegemite, the key rule is: lots of butter/margarine and a SMALL amount of Vegemite 😅 Canberra is really cold in winter, as you're probably finding out now! Def need thick coats, scarves and gloves. Summers are hot and dry. I lived there in the 90s. It can feel a bit restrictive at times. Hope you can see more of Australia while you're here. It's pretty huge 😅

Others have already set you straight re Vegemite - lots of butter and just smear us what you want. Other tips - Canberra gets really cold, so be ready for that. And when you get a chance head down to the coast - Batemans Bay and further south. It’s beautiful. Hope you have a wonderful adventure while you are here.
