We had to hop on this trend… because the life of a West Australian is kind of chic 💅💛

From calling 20°C “a bit chilly” to casually driving four hours because it’s “not that far” - there are some things that are just quintessentially WA.

What would you add to the list? 👇

🎉 FUN FACT FRIDAY – DID YOU KNOW? 🎉

🌊 Western Australia has more than 12,000km of coastline! 🌊

That's enough coastline to stretch further than the distance from Perth to London! 🤯

From the turquoise waters of the Kimberley and Ningaloo Reef to the white sandy beaches of Esperance and the rugged cliffs of the Great Southern, WA's coastline is one of the most spectacular in the world. 💙

How lucky are we to call this incredible State home? 💛
