If the UK is so small, how come I haven't seen it ALL?

These postcards are brilliant illustrations of how small the UK landmass is in relation to Australia. No world map has explained to me quite so well, why it is that many Australians and North Americans think nothing of 'doing' the whole of Europe in a few weeks. Thank you Anna Chlebinska and Strange Maps: "Sometimes a picture is more eloquent than a thousand words ... That's two thousand words right here."
