Yes, the grass is really greener elsewhere

WHEN I first heard the phrase “The grass is greener on the other side”, I wondered if it was really true and why. How could people who were born and bred in one country feel like another is somehow better than their own? I thought it was not possible.

However, after living in Austra­lia for more than a decade and observing the way of life there, I can sort of see this better “greenery” in small things that some might not even realise or just take for granted.
