I thought you were taking the mick when you asked which is why I never bothered replying - an antipodean is a person that is from the other side of the world to yourself. For us this is Oz - so if you went 'down under', you yourself would be 'antipodean' and vice versa.
It all orginates from antipodes - google it
"The antipodes of Australia are in the North Atlantic Ocean (ie us UK'ers), while parts of Spain, Portugal, and Morocco are antipodal to New Zealand"
