    Aba, may kaguluhan dito! Narinig ko pangalan ko ah, hehe!

    Welcome to Brissy mga pips!

    Ni wala pa akong isang taon, Brisbane feels like home already. Pag andito na kayo, maiintindihan niyo rin kung bakit...

    Pero may job offer ako sa Sunshine Coast for January. So, if matuloy ako dun, gora na to. Sunshine coast na lang kaya tayo magkita-kits??? :D. Prepare your swimwear na talaga!

    P.S. sa mga shoppingera (tulad ko :D), walang tatalo sa Harbourtown ng GoldCoast. So you should check that out!

    21 Dec 2012 - 457 lodged

    Hi Brissy peeps. I just revised my EOI and changed VIC to Queensland for the State Nomination. Nireject ako ng VIC e.. kasi daw..
    "The Victorian state nomination program is a labour market program, which means that, like a job application process, only the highest value applicants to Victorian industries are selected; not just those who may meet minimum eligibility requirements. It is not always possible to predict in advance of viewing an application all of the skill sets that might be of high value to an industry."
    Anybody here who entered Queensland via VISA 190/489? How was the process?
    Sana naman maapprove na ko dito.. From what I've been reading sobrang ok jan.. :)

    Hi there! For guys who are asking what brissy like, in my opinion it's really a good spot. Every aussies I met at my work who are from other cities said that to me.

    mga pinoy naman from my work place din who are very successful tradies (earning good dollars and citizens na din iba) working in the mines they live in adelaide but they like brissy too.

    Work smart play hard, strive to realize set goals, to always love my family and take good care of them... above all thank God for the blessings we are receiving each and everyday!

    Hello sa inyo. Taga Brisbane din po AKO. Ascot near the airport. Sino po ang malapit?

    Yun nga lang kinailangan ko munang mag exit ng bansa dahil nag expire ang student visa ko and akala ko hindi pa. 4 months na ko dito sa pinas currently naka lodge na ang 189 visa ko.

    Bale almost 3 years din ako tumira sa Brisbane. Sa mga nagtatanong. Oo maganda sa Brisbane. Laid back lang pero metropolis na rin. Hindi mo feel na nasa remote area ka. And weather ay parang pinas nga lang sa winter very bearable naman. Maraming pasyalan. Malapit sa beaches. Gold coast is about an hour drive or an hour and a half train. I love the gold coast especially the theme parks. Night life naman ok di sa gold coast pero for me bigger ang night life sa Brisbane. It's safe. Naglalakad nga lang ako magisa sa gabi dun. Marami sinehan. May beach sa South bank which is open all year round.

    Sabi sakin ng mga galing Sydney at Melbourne mas polite daw ang mga taga Brisbane. People stop and say hi especially in the suburbs.

    Brisbane isn't really a big city. Pero you'd find that it's just the right mix. Nature, metropolis, leisure.

    @rein_marco ah. Mejo malayo ako. Sa southwest suburb kami eh. Para akong nasa probinsya na dito. Walang taong naglalakad sa daan, anytime of anyday. Para akong nasa chinatown sa dami ng chinese/taiwanese/vietnamese around, especially sa mall. Yes, mababait mga aussie dito.

    @Umbenieyon if you are planning to rent alone right away, with no job, i guess mahihirapan ka. Of course, you know the reason why. Pero meron naman na nagpapa-rent ng room, like me (hehehe), pero yun eh kung ok lang sayo na may ka-share sa house. Depende yan sa baon mong pera pagdating mo dito.

    Sa trabaho, it depends kung ano bang expertise mo.

    @Umbenieyon PM you with regards to the room rate.

    You know what, same tayo ng circumstance. I also have a 3-year old daughter. I think you'll fit in well. Maraming manufacturing companies dito.
