Perth, Western Australia.
=Where is Perth?=
Perth is the Capital city of the state of Western Australia which is physically about a third of the entire country of Australia but the population is small ? only about 10% of the nation?s population. This population of about 2 million most actually live in Perth ( 1.5 million) and the other towns like Geralton, Albany, Bunbury, Kalgoorlie and Broome so it is a very empty State in the other areas.
Perth is situated on the Swan River and is said to be the most isolated city in the world. Perth?s nearest city is over 1 million is Adelaide which is about 2000km away. Perth is actually geographically closer to Indonesia than it is to Sydney.

I'd also stayed in a backpackers hostel in East Perth ...
