sjn87 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Heey, Im currently waiting on my PMV and looking at moving over to Oz to be with my boyfriend. I recently lived in Perth with him and hated it (no offence Perth) but it just felt so isolated and boring (again no offence Perth). I have been doing some research and Brisbane and Sydney seem to stand out abit and look like they would be a nice place to move to, but now i cant decide on which one? I will eventually visit both places before i make the boyfriend move but just wanted to know a bit about the places, anyone else opinion. Also Im a 26 year old female from the outskirts of London, England if that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 If you enjoy London and like going out, theatre, clubs etc then I would look at Sydney first. I did most of my WHV there at 21 and absolutely loved it. Live in Brisbane now and it's fantastic to live with a young family but not sure about whether I would've loved it so much before. What are your mid-term plans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 I'm 28 and love living in Brisbane. Plenty of live music and nightlife although if you need something to rival London, Sydney is a better bet! Brisbane rents way more affordable to live central. Brisbane is river city so it takes an hour to get to a good beach. So if you are planning on living on a beach Sydney is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tickled Pink Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 If you are a London lover, then Sydney would be more for you I think.... I prefer the quieter life, and so live in Brisbane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjn87 Posted August 1, 2013 Author Share Posted August 1, 2013 hhhmmm all sounds good, thanks. I think i will need to visit them both to make up my mind and also depends on where my boyfriend can transfer but i dont think he will have a problem with either of them places. I love London but it dont have to be as busy or crazy as London, i just like having stuff to do but i do also enjoy the chilled out aussi lifestyle. My plans at the moment are not really family related, just plan to have fun with my boyfriend and enjoy life. Family is a option but that is in the future and im not thinking of that any time soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozziepom Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 We moved from Sydney to Brisbane (we live on the Gold Coast but work in Brisbane). Sydney is a fab city but it is very expensive and pretty busy. I prefer Brisbane overall but they both have amazing plus points, best to visit both before you commit!
