  Hello po..one of the options that we are thinking is mag-initial entry muna then stay siguro for 1 week sa AU tapos saka na magstay for good kapag nakapag-ipon na at malaki na si baby. Merun po ba kayo marerecommend na cheap place to stay na okay rin for baby - 10 months. thanks!

  errrr, whereabouts boss?

  @LokiJr - ang kailang ni thread starter accommodation upon entry... So it needs to be sorted before landing in Oz.

  Hi, i just want to share our experience...medyo expensive to stay in a hotel... We did stay for two weeks and magastos sya...here`s afew suggestion na nalaman ako after sometime (lessons learned) kung nalaman namin malaking katipiran.
  - PaGDSTING MO DITO buy ka ng mga handy traders para syang maliit na booklet na classified adds... Maraming private owners letting to rent and sub rent... (ok ito temporary while nag~iipon ka ng 100 id points - medicare, bank account etc., maraming requirements ang mga real estate agent once kukuha ka ng house to rent)
  - magagamit mo handy traders to buy second hand car and appliances.
  - go to church maraming pilipino ma laging nagsisimba u will meet awesome filipino na tutulong sa yo.
  - do ur homework sa internet, if u will find a palce to stay find close sa supermarket close dun sa malapit sa mga kailangan mong ayusin na papel...sobrang mahal ang taksi...else be friendly...makikisuyo sa mga kabayan natin...maaming mabait...
  - hanapin mo ang filipino community sa pupuntahan mo... Some of them own houses that they sublet rooms....
