    Experience wise, maganda ang weather sa Melby although from time to time it is unpredictable...as they often say...four seasons in one day.....so one needs to be constantly ready with the change of weather in a single day....

    @cindylish kakagaling ko lang melbourne. para sa akin, it beats ang init ng pinas anytime. kaya naman mag layer ng damit, at walang problema maglakad kahit malayo pa kasi hindi ka pagpapawisan. as for the ulan, sa manila specially, umuulan whole day, tapos baha pa. so wala kang masyadong problema sa melbourne.

    i think ung mga comments na "pangit" ang weather sa melbourne ay compared to fair-weathered places like sydney. pero pag na-compare mo siya sa pinas, definitely mas maganda si melbourne for me

    @grant512 & @se29m - it was my friend who bought it from us. ang madugo dito is the processing of papers coz it will take a while. as no one can do this for us, we hired someone to process all our documents and we paid around 15K ata.

    super worth it if i am to ask as they know the ins and out of how the complicated transfer process is done...

    @cindylish kakagaling ko lang melbourne. para sa akin, it beats ang init ng pinas anytime. kaya naman mag layer ng damit, at walang problema maglakad kahit malayo pa kasi hindi ka pagpapawisan. as for the ulan, sa manila specially, umuulan whole day, tapos baha pa. so wala kang masyadong problema sa melbourne.

    i think ung mga comments na "pangit" ang weather sa melbourne ay compared to fair-weathered places like sydney. pero pag na-compare mo siya sa pinas, definitely mas maganda si melbourne for me

    I agree with you, okay naman ang weather sa Melb, Crazy weather ang tawag kasi in a day pwedeng umulan, umaraw tapos mainit biglang giginaw. What's nice about the weather here is that kahit summer hindi everyday mainit parang hindi summer, :)
