I've been living in Australia for 6 months now and my time is coming to an end. I've been thinking about getting a new tattoo to help remember my time here but i'm having trouble coming up with ideas. I don't want anything huge, just something simple with an Australian/Aboriginal theme to it. Any ideas?

Or maybe an oz animal you really like? Or like, if you were in Sydney - the opera house or something
Think about tattoos
tis all I am saying.
I quite like the star one, but as Brit Jamez said, you need to be perfectly sure that it is what you want.
As for tattoos, my boyfriend got one in New Zealand just before we came back from travelling for the same sort of reasons. He (with the help of the tattooist) came up with a design with a Maori-style influence - although not directly Maori as he didn't want to be disrespectful seeing as he's not Maori or even from New Zealand - it was based on the shape of the two main islands that make up New Zealand, but not so obviously that you look at it and think "that's New Zealand", if you know what I mean. It came out really well and he's happy with it. So maybe you could choose something that has an Aboriginal art influence on a symbol that means something to you? I know that's a bit vague but it could be a start. Perhaps go into a few tattoo studios and ask their advice?
Cheers for the suggestions guys, keep em coming. PS I have a few big tats already so it's not a big deal to me, but thanks for the concern :P
NOOOO! Don't propagandize to people to tattoo his portrait! I want to remain the only on with this unique tattoo.
I know the type you're talking about. They're cool.
