Just this March, I'd visited Perth, Australia to attend my cousin's graduation. What Perth means to me now is peaceful lifestyle. As you can see from the picture of me sitting on the grass above, does it bring the meaning of peace to you? For me, it is very greenish and clean, which are the signs of peace.
Compare to Malaysia, I honestly admit that Perth is much more peaceful, clean and safe. Have you ever walk bare-footedly in Malaysia's streets? Will you give it a try? Me neither. But in Perth, I did. The streets are so clean that you don't have to worry about your foot getting dirty. In addition, the citizens there are friendly too. I remember when I first got there, there was an Australian asking me whether I'm a Japanese. I answered him "I'm not, I'm a Malaysian Chinese, he directly replied "Wow nice, welcome to Australia".
I felt so warm talking to them although we might be just strangers. In Perth, you don't have to worry on being seen in a weird way just because you may be in different races, from different countries. But in Malaysia, "some people" might be racist, I'm not criticising all, but some, so don't get me wrong :)
The photo above is a photo I took when i was eating in a Chinese restaurant in Perth. As you can see, there are Australians eating Chinese food too. This proves that Australians love different cultures. When I first got into that Chinese restaurant, out of my expectation, I saw the amount of Australians eating there were more than the Chinese people.

The pictures above are the food I'd taken when I visited a place called "Fremantle" in Perth. When you mention "Fremantle", you can find out that majority of the Australians will surely recommend you to go to an open-air restaurant called "Cicerellos". One word to describe the food, CRAZY. They were really delicious, trust me, when you go to Perth, you must give them a try, no regrets eventhough I gained weight.

The Cottlesloe Beach. It's the word clean again.
However, there are no certain agreement and disagreement for me when it comes to the question "Shall Perth be visited?". It is all depend on you, if you're a person who do not bother about cleanliness and peacefulness, then I do not think that Perth is suitable for you. But I recommend you to visit Perth if it's a few days trip because it's gonna be enjoyable especially with the food and the fascinating yet beautiful places there. If you're a person who would like to set yourself free from stress, I strongly recommend you to visit this peaceful place.
Well, for me, I would like to say I like Perth but I won't stay there for a long period. Perth is suitable for people who wanna find a new place to stay in for retirement life. But for entertainment, Perth is lack of that, it will be called as "boring" for certain people.
Perth, Peace.
