    Hi Guys,

    Papunta na po ako OZ this mid Jan. Plano ko munang mag hostel for at least two weeks to 1 month kasi 160 a week naman yung dorm. May kakilala naman po ako sa Sydney pero mejo malayo sa CBD. Advisable po bang dalhin to?
    1. Mini rice cooker - para di ako maculture shock na walang kanin.
    2. Utensils - one spoon and fork
    3. Lock & lock na baunan
    4. Lalagyan ng tubig - kailangan po bang bumili ng tubig? or ok na yung sa faucet.
    1. Mini rice cooker - para di ako maculture shock na walang kanin.
    sagot: iba ang standard ng outlet o saksakan dito hindi mo magagamit yan. bili ka na lang pagdating mo $20 pinaka mura.

    2. Utensils - one spoon and fork
    sagot: puede

    3. Lock & lock na baunan
    sagot; puede din. pero maganda bumili ka na lang dito ng baonan. pyrex ang brand. made in glass.. puede pang Microwave.. safe pa.

    4. Lalagyan ng tubig - kailangan po bang bumili ng tubig? or ok na yung sa faucet.
    sagot: di mo na kailangan magdala yan.. Pero tanungin mo muna ang mayari ng bahay or kung saan ang accomodation kung puede inumin ang tap water. Most naman ng tap water dito puedeng inumin. pero mabuti na yung mag tanung para safe ka. May mabibili dito bottled water.

    @TotoyOZresident thanks. Yung mini rice cooker Black and decker yung saksakan naka european standard (three pins) pero sige wag na lang, baka magkaproblema ako sa kuryente (50hz or 60hz). Pero saan kaya ako makakabili jan? Akala ko ksi hindi common yung rice cookers jan. Pero lock and lock siguro magdadala talaga ako para mas mura :)

    Dont worry kumpleto dito.. lahat ng klase ng basic needs nandito kahit rice cooker.. sa groceries or kitchen ware shop may mabibili dun.

    Goodluck.
