The last month of summer is exciting for NY-based tennis fans as the tour hits its North American leg. There are important tournaments in DC, Cincinnati, Toronto, and Montreal before the tennis community converges on New York for the final grand slam of the year—The US Open.
Having your accent mimicked (often quite poorly) is one of the quintessential experiences of being an Australian in the United States. It is often early on in our acquaintance with people. They throw in a ‘crikey’ to show that their masterful powers of perception are sharp as ever, and they have noticed you are, indeed, Australian.
Get ready for the most exciting event of the summer, ladies! The Big Aussie BBQ is back, and it’s going to be an absolute ripper! So mark your calendars for Saturday, August 19th, because you won’t want to miss this awesome day of FUN at The Old Stone House in Brooklyn.
At AWNY, we’re always excited to champion inspiring Aussie women making moves in the US, and though based physically in the Bay Area, Amy Meyer of Aussie Recruit has made it her mission to help Australians across the country have an easier time getting their job.
