    I’m going to Gold Coast with a friend in one month on a working holiday visa. And I’m so exited but also very overwhelmed, watching your videos have been beyond helpful. So I just wanted to thank you!!

    That’s pretty spot on, my husband and I budget $1000 each for outgoing expenses living in Southwest Sydney, I agree that Wollongong is a little cheaper as I am original from there, it’s a beautiful place 😊

    I'll agree grocery shopping IS costly in Aus. However, you can mitigate costs a bit by being really organized & trying to only shop ONCE a week! Working out menus, clever storage - freezing specials, maybe. I don't remember the last time we ate out & we make great coffee @ home - save yourself upwards of $2.6K/yr. I'd guess that SYD would compare to living in parts of London & other high cost areas of UK - but prices there have sky rocketed since '21. As a couple we spend around $260/wk in Woolies & we're in Tasmania, so often have supply chain Issues! And we pay $2/lt for gas/petrol... Feb '24

    Hi Dain , just re the insurance thing , you know as a Brit that you are covered health wise as per the reciprocal agreement between the UK and Australia so health care is free for you .

    • @DainLuka

      Hey Brian thanks for watching 😊! Yes I have a Medicare card but you still have to pay for health care and it doesn’t cover everything. For instance an ambulance! Wouldn’t want to front a bill if anything happened 😅🤦‍♂️

      And ambulance is free in Queensland

    I’m from British Columbia, Canada. So far prices are pretty good aside from housing almost the same as B.C. Phone plans are incredible for cheap. And busses and transit are much better.

    Where I live in the outer suburbs of Sydney , near Liverpool and rent for appartments are between 400 and 500 dollars per week . If you are living in the CBD then you are paying through the roof . Wollongong is better because it is naturally is beautiful and it has beaches . Heaps better than Bondi Beach !

    Great video! What I’m missing here is comparing it to the e.g. minimum wage salary or typical salary that person on WHV would have earn, am I able to save something for travelling?

    • @DainLuka
      @DainLuka  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey mate thanks for watching ! I have a video about jobs and typical wages it’s title how to get a job etc .. in regards to saving it all depends on how much someone works and their lifestyle so that’s very subjective !

    Honestly it seems like UK prices!

    • @DainLuka
      @DainLuka  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thats interesting! from what my friends say back home it sounds as if the UK has gotten very expensive recently 😳

    As an American I get jealous of these videos because everything is so cheap. I spend about a third of my income on healthcare per year plus everything else is double Australian prices.

    • @DainLuka
      @DainLuka  ปีที่แล้ว

      I love travelling to America but I have to agree its very expensive over there! thanks for watching 😊

    Australia never mentions the 12,000 people who leave the country every year..permanently
