She has been embracing Australian culture since arriving Down Under earlier this year to study at the University of Sydney.
And Princess Ingrid Alexandra of Norway recently visited one of the city’s biggest tourist attractions – Taronga Zoo.
The 21-year-old was seen getting close to several Aussie animals, including bilbies and a koala called Humphrey – and even fed some kangaroos.
The young royal showed off her natural beauty by going almost make-up free for the outing and even arrived with wet hair.
She looked like any other tourist, blending in by wearing a very casual outfit of a pair of jeans and a white T-shirt.
The polite princess expressed her gratitude to the staff for the tour and their conservation work, sharing a video on Instagram.

Though she’s embracing Australian social life, Ingrid is still learning the local road rules.
She was recently spotted making a slight slip-up when she and a female friend tried to hop into a waiting Uber from the wrong side.
Evidently used to left-hand drive vehicles, the princess was seen reaching for the door handle on the driver’s side.
Her decision to move to Australia to continue her studies comes after she embarked on military training at the Engineer Battalion in Brigade Nord last year.
