    Browsing real estate posting sa realestate.au compared sa Pilipinas, grabe yung hitsura ng mga rental apartments and town houses. Ganoon po ba talaga kagaganda or photogenic lang yung mga rental properties nila?

    Pahingi naman po ng reality check. Also, mga nakikita ko may kasama na oven, dishwasher etc.

    Iba pa din when you see in person. Minsan old pics ang nakalagay. Pagdating sa inspection, makikita mo yung details na di kita sa pics. Swerte kung ikaw ang unang tenant. Standard inclusions usually ang stove, oven and dishwasher, and aircon/heater.

    Hehe, may nagawa din pala nun dyan. Nagreresearch lang po ako now kung magkano usually ang accom, para makapagbudget ng for a few months.

    Nakita ko yung flatmates.com din po, may mga nagpaparent pa dun like for a few weeks lang po to months? Or much better maghanap na lang po sa fb kung saka-sakali po? Preliminary research pa lang naman po ito. Haha.

    Wala pa nga grant eh. Haha. Pero I’d like to keep myself prepared po mahirap mabigla po. TIA.

    ingat lang po madami daw po scammers sa flatmates au

    Question po ulit sa mga nakapag BM po, gumagana pa din po ba yung globe sim cards once naka activate ang roaming para po sa mga OTP transaction in PH, and also gcash? Plano ko po kasi leave the financials as is and I can still use them once nasa Australia na po.

    Hello, for those who moved recently, what shipping service did you use? Planning to take some of our small items like books, toys, etc. Probably just a few balikbayan boxes, so I'm looking for something similar to the MoveCube by Seven Seas, but it seems it does not cater to Philippines.

    Thank you.
