There are few things on Earth more exciting than stumbling across a chaotic blooming of rainbow wildflowers somewhere unexpected. Despite a popular belief held overseas that Australia is 98 per cent arid outback (with a tiny slice of Bondi Beach thrown into the mix), our land Down Under is actually home to a veritable abundance of stunningly beautiful wildflowers that have to be seen to be believed.

The housing market in Sydney is no joke. In fact, a recent study revealed that Sydney’s housing market is the second most unaffordable in the world, and with the cost of living in Sydney rapidly increasing (faster than it is in regional areas), it makes sense to consider setting up camp outside of the city. While there are a lot of regional areas where house prices are still pretty steep (popular spots like Byron Bay, we’re looking at you), there are towns and suburbs across NSW where homes cost a full 50 per cent less than they do in the city.

In these 30 NSW suburbs, houses cost half as much as they do in Sydney

Peanut butter and blueberries are, rather alarmingly, Bilal’s favourite sandwich filling. He thinks the two dramatically different textures help each other go down better. In other words, his lunch is an allegory for Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan’s bittersweet British Muslim romcom, in which the roughcut Brummie lad meets cute - or cute-ish - with Hafsah, a demure but steely lass from Bradford.

And, they're right at home here in South Carolina.
