You all probably already know this but anyway, "been bush" is Aussie slang for having been out in a wilderness area. The term "outback" is similar but basically refers to anywhere in the warmer parts of Australia well away from the cities, with a more rural than wilderness connotation. "Bush" generally refers to wild country rather than rural. KC's State, South Australia and the State where MajorPo and I live, Western Australia, both have vast stretches of "bush" and KC and I have both spent a fair bit of time "in the bush".
