This is something I do sometimes and I thought I would share this tip with you guys. If you fee like you could do with a change of scene and maybe a little holiday but cant afford it, just do this:

Simply set your home page to www.google.com.au and it's as if you are living in Australia! All the news and search results come up in Australian. I also make my wife speak in an Australian accent to make it more realistic.

Other "destinations" I go to sometimes:

www.google.de (germany)
www.google.fr (france)
www.google.ca (canada)

There was an amazing thread on SA where the guy met a new girl and pretended to be Australian, faking the accent, making up his birthplace, his past, everything. He met her parents and still kept the pretence up. He did this for months. Hilarity ensued (not for him).
