Some Perth/Western Australia (WA) facts for you:

- London is closer to Moscow than Perth is to any of the other cities in Australia

- Perth is closer to Jakarta in Indonesia than any other city in Australia apart from Adelaide. Perth to Brisbane is about the same distance as London to Cairo

- WA is almost 11 times larger than the UK and if WA was a country in its own right then it would be the 10th largest in the world (just after Khazakhstan)

- WA has a population of 3 million, with 2.4 million living in Perth. The second largest 'city' in WA is Bunbury which has a population less than half of Ipswich

- Accordingly the only places in the world with a lower population density than WA are Greenland and the Falklands

- Albany on the far southern coast of WA has a similar climate to northern Italy; Perth has a similar climate to Morocco and Algeria, and Broome on the northern coast of WA has a similar climate to much of India, Somalia and Sudan.

- People living in Perth will often 'pop down South' for the weekend to the Margaret River wine region. Margaret River is a 3.5 hour drive from Perth!!
