Dito sa brisbane cbd, sa tabi nya may botanical gardens for walking, group excercise, soccer, jogging, etc. Yung council dito spends millions$ to develop jogging paths, kung ayaw mung mag jogging sa garden meron din floating jogging path along the river kaso nung bumaha dito tinangay ng malakas na alon yung floating path pero na approve na yung budget to build a new one next year. Meron din dedicated bridge sa mga nag-jo jogging/walking/biking to cross the river. Or if you want meron ding man made beach sa city at mga council/family pools kung gustom mu mag-swim sa mga suburbs.
@JClem
May dedicated bike paths dito tska meron din mga bicycle hire similar sa paris as a form of public transpo. Kung ayaw mung mag-bus, you can rent a bike sa mga designated stations.

Btw, ok ang public hospitals dito - nung inatake ako ng vertigo mabilis yung respond ng ambulance, then ipa fill up ka ng mga forms (kahit hilo hilo ka na), after 1 hr of waiting may mag-aatend na physician tanungin ka lang. after 2 hrs may ibang physician magtatanung ulit, after 2hrs. bigyan ka ng konting treatment, after 2 hrs i-check yung recovery mu pag ok na i-release ka na pero maghintay ka muna ng 2hrs bago ka i-release. I've seen sa ER mga tao umaalis na lang kasi walang nag-aatend sa kanila, buti na lng minor lang yung sa kin. Nung nagpasurgery ako sa private, langit at lupa ang difference!

Sobrang informative ng thread na ito. My wife and I are from Singapore and would be migrating to Melbourne in mid Jan, to try it out.
Heto yung mga pros and cons na naisip namin dito sa SG
SG Pros
1. Malapit sa Pinas, madami budget airlines (round trip fare can go as low as 5000pesos)
2. One of the safest place in the world
3. mababa ang tax, effective tax rate cguro around 7%
4. May 13th month at productivity bonus sa midyear which is around 2+ months salary
SG Cons
1. Mahal mga bahay, which are usually flats in high rise buildings
2. Mahal ng kotse
3. Di kaya ng one income family
4. Stressful for the kids mag-aral, dahil bilingual at very competitive.
Yung take home ko sa Aus job offer slightly higher lang dun sa SG take home ko
(including the bonuses) pero mas mataas cost of living I think sa Aus.
Gaano ba kamahal ang private health insurance sa Australia, from what I've gathered, kailangan pa din nito, dahil di lahat kayang i-cover ng medicare.

kung sa Sg PUB, minimum 400sgd/month sa Brisbane 600/ 3 months.( take note gumagamit pa nang mga electric oven na malalaki sa Aus, sa Sg di uso ang oven, meron microwave nga lang )
Most sa pagkain ng Sg galing sa Aus, that means mas mura pagkain sa Aus.
Clothing depende sayo kung maluho ka.
Pero one thing for sure, mahal ang pagkain sa Aus pag sa labas ka kakain, di gaya sa Sg na pde sa hawker 3sgd. Solusyon jan eh di magbaon nalang pag nasa work. Kung magrent ka nang haus mas mura talaga sa AUs compare sa Sg.
Conclusion mas mura cost of living sa Aus, as per my 1 month experience sa Brisbane.

About night life and bars? parang mahal yata ang gimik dyan. Dito sa Pinas, nakaka-survive ang 500 pesos ko sa timog at metrowalk hehehe. 40 pesos lang ang SMB sa not-so-classy bar.
Malungkot daw dyan, 6pm pa lang sarado na ang mall. Hindi pa naman ako sanay ng tahimik. Gusto ko maingay at magulo at maraming tao, yung tipong squatter hahaha. Culture shock sigurado ang aabutin ko dyan.

katulad ko lumaki ako sa quiapo manila lumipat kami ng sampaloc manila. pagdating ko dito sa ACT nag iba mundo ko nakakabinging katahimikan pards lalo na kapag weekend. maganda sa umaga daming ibon humuhuni. may ibon dito ang huni ay para tumatawa sa galak. panay may mga puno dito. wala kang maririnig ng busina ng sasakyan. dahil sa pagsisiskap ko nakuha ko ang permanent resident at sunod na taon citizen na. Then staka pa lang ako megdedecide kung saan ako mapunta at makakuha ng magandang sahod.
kapag may sasakyan kana yun ang maganda makakapunta ka kung saan mo gusto.
goodluck.
