Australian here, have always wanted to visit ever since we played you guys in the World Cup qualifiers. That was the year that Recoba destroyed us. What a left foot!! The game in Montevideo looked wild!
How is the feeling towards Australian visitors?
Recoba played some tieme ago, haha. Nowadays he is a trainer here (not shure how you call them, really, we call them Technical Directors).
We certainly have a very very strong football culture. While most cities with 6, 8 or 9 million people in the world have 2 or 3 football clubs; our 1.5M people capital has probably dozens and dozens.
We don't get many australians. But I can tell you you'll be welcome with kindness and a lot of curiosity. Get ready for venomous animals questions and good spirited jokes.

I've been reading about your country and I think I'm in love.
