👌. Bris Vegas is growing up. So much to do and see and all in a smaller welcoming city.
It really is. Thanks for watching John :)
Several years ago I was very lucky to stay in Brisbane with a friend from my school years. It is the most beautiful, exciting place I have ever had the pleasure to visit. I enjoyed every minute of my stay. I recommend it highly. If you are a resident how wonderful for you because I wish I was!
I'm so happy to hear you loved it here so much :) We looooove living in Brisbane, it's an amazing place to live.
Nothing like a local making a video of their home city :-)
Thank you so much for watching :D have a great day - Phoebe x
Awesome video. Love Brisbane. I prefer it over Sydney any day :)
Haha me too! I lived in Sydney for a while and it just... I dunno... I was sad living there! Queensland has a much different feel 😊❤️
Little Grey Box absolutely. Like when I visit Sydney every couple of years, everyone seems stressed out and not very social. By the time I arrive back in Brisbane airport and to the air train, everyone just seems more laidback and friendlier.
Fantastic presentation of this beautiful city.
Oh, thank you so much!! We had the pleasure of visiting Sweden for the first time a few years ago (in summer) and absolutely loved it! I've never seen anywhere quite as magical as the archipelago spots we visited (Utö, Sandhamn... amazing!). Australia would be very lucky to have you and Brisbane is such a wonderfully, livable city. Coming from these long Swedish winters, you'd love our blue sky winters! They're pretty special. Yes, I think it is hard to immigrate to Australia but I hope it happens as seamlessly as possible for you and your family! Have a great day and thanks for watching, glad the video could give you a spark :) Phoebe x
@@travelforphoebe Yes, agreed, Sweden is quite the place in the summer. But that's just it. When summer occurs, it's beautiful. This summer though, +14C and rain, every other day. And soon we're back to fall, with more rain, wind and cold... Summer in Sweden is always a gamble and it's rarely longer than 1,5-2 months. Soooo... ;) You might see the appeal of moving from this country? Hehe! Thank you once again, have a lovely day!
Mate brissy has the worst weather. Stinky hot all year round and pretty much no winter.
The best thing about brissy is the amount of snakes that pop out in Summer. Snakes rule 👌
... you just described my ideal weather situation 😌
@@travelforphoebe haha i figured you liked the heat. I maintain against the grain 😉😁
I came to Brisbane from sunny England to live for 4 months, back in 2018. I've never felt so homesick about a place that isn't home.
I'm so happy to hear you fell in love with our little city! It sounds like you may need to move here one day :)
Did you make it back yet mate
What a great city to explore (if we do say so ourselves)!
The best city in the best state in the best country in the world 😍🐨❤️
Very nice
I wish i can live in Brisbane i am so in love with Australia and brisbane🥺
Brisbane and Australia would be lucky to have you!!! 😊🙌🏻
Little Grey Box
Awww i am so happy and i like Australia 🇦🇺 so much🥺
Loves from 🇰🇼
If you plan to come. Make Brisbane your central hub. Stay at least 4 days. Beautiful beaches south and north. Amazing rainforest 30 min drive from the city. Mt Glorious. To the East is stunning Moreton Bay. Full of dolphins turtles and Dugong. Brisbane is Australia's most under rated city. In Brisbane try Roma Street Gardens. Mt Cootha lookout and Botanical gardens. City botanical gardens. Cultural Centre has Museums galore. South bank Gardens. Try the suburban centres such as west end, Paddington, new farm and bulimba. Catch a city cat ferry and cruise the river. Eat at Eat Street. Try rock climbing at kangaroo point. Go to lone pine to hug a koala. Explore Toowong Cemetery. Do a ghost tour of Boggo Road Jail. Visit the Commissariat Store museum for a taste of early life. Go visit historic Newstead house. Try the Bulimba Creek walking tracks at Carindale. Vistit the many bushlands around the city including Boondall wetlands. You will be surprised how much there is to do in this city let alone the nightlife and all the normal things.
Many tourists say they wish they had planned to stay longer.
Brissy is the most Australian city in the country. Melbourne is European and Sydney is cosmopolitan. Brisbane is laid back and welcoming. People smile and are happy to chat with strangers. There is very little graffiti as the council clean it off. Brisbane is very clean and modern yet still has Australis most grandest old buildings. Brisbane is more and more embracing it's subtropical climate. Many lovely flowering trees and plants. The river is brown. It's a tidal river so it will never be blue or clear. It is home to 2000 bull sharks. That's why no one swims in it. There are many Eddy's and rips under the surface you can't see. Sunrise and sunsets are stunning. Blue Sky's are common with big puffy white clouds. It's perfect weather in winter June to August. The best time of year is September. Stunning days. Summer can be stiffly hot and humid with spectacular thunderstorms most afternoons.
Most of all the same comment most tourists say is they can't believe how green Brisbane is. Some have said it's a city of forests. It was voted one of the most beautiful cities of the world for it's mix of grand sandstone buildings mixed with gleaming glass skyscrapers and it's gardens and flamboyant color. Enjoy
Wooooowwwww thank you so much for taking the time to share all that great info!! I'm sure it'll come in really useful to people planning to visit.
I’ve grown up in inner city Brisbane and I now in my teenage years I feel like the city is growing with me. It’s incredible ❤️ Will always love this place
We feel so lucky to call Brisbane home too Odetta! Thanks for watching!
SouthBank Brisbane is why I do my Sony Alpha Brisbane Group photowalks while people learn photography. 😃
It’s the perfect spot for that isn’t it Brett. Thanks for watching!
Great content folks. Im sold on Brisbane. Moving there for the lifestyle and the warm weather. 😁
Haha Yess! That makes me so happy. Brisbane is so liveable and you’ve got some of the most beautiful beaches within driving distance to the north and south plus the fantastic darling downs to the west! 😊 thanks for watching!
Do you plan on doing Travel Guides for other Australia Cities Phoebe?
We would love to! Nothing in the pipeline just yet but hopefully we get to visit some more Aussie destinations this year! 😍 P x
Beautiful💖🌸💚💗
Thanks for watching :)
Awesome content Phoebe and amazing camera work Matt 👌. Love how natural you come across makes for a very easy watch...are all Aussies from Brisbane this chilled and lovely☺️? Newly subscribed from the UK and now binge watching all your videos from years ago😁.
I was wondering do you base yourself in Brisbane between travelling and doing the blogs? Would you say Brisbane is a pretty appealing cool city for single people to fit in aswell just I'm actually considering applying it looks amazing. Just I see lots of couples and family videos saying how great a city it is for them and kids but not much from a single persons perspective.
Safe travels 🌞
So glad you found the channel and thank you so much for watching so many 🙏🏼😌 Yes, I’m not one to travel constantly, I like to go away then come home to edit/recharge. Brisbane has come a long way and is a pretty big city now, there’s lots to do and lots of people to meet
Hey i have a weird question for you guys " What is the best place for Introverts " I mean the place having quiet atmosphere less people... Name 3 of them!!! ❤️. BTW loved ur Content & love from India ❤️💛💜💙💚
Haha that’s a great question!! And thank you so much for the love and support 😊 I would say the Swedish Archipelago, Australian coast/bush land and the Canadian Rockies were three places we found to be great for us as introverts. Lots of nature, space and great views!
@@travelforphoebe thanks ❤️
I live in Petrie Terrace great video guys done a wonderful job yes Brisbane is the best city in Australia and growing I’ve lived in all cities except Darwin and there’s no place I’d rather be and I was born on the Gold Coast ! still prefer Brissy
It’s just so damn livable hey :) thanks for watching David 😃
I definitely agree with you! I moved to Brisbane from country Victoria in 2013. Best decision. The city, community vibe and weather literally helps with mental health soooo much. Once the new north shore precinct is finished you should definitely do a video on it! Has some promising things in store I’m sure! Just subscribed today and I love your content!! 💕💕
Oh, that makes me so happy to hear you love it up here! Brisbane has grown and changed so much since I was a kid but I love that it's still got that small city feel to it. It's such a great place to live! Whenever we travel we talk about living abroad but, honestly, I don't think I could. I just love it here so much :D Thanks for subscribing and for the love - we appreciate the support SO MUCH! Especially at the moment :) P x
I love Brisbane , been there many times before .Wish I can go back there soon .
Oh good! I hope you can go back again soon :) Have a good day x
Love Brisbane. Modern yet calm and beautiful city ❤
We do too ❤️ I heard someone call it a ‘slow city’ the other day... I love that description. Thanks for watching!
I miss Brisbane, was a backpacker in 2010/11 and left just before it flooded for Sydney. The city had a nice feel about it, the CBD was manageable by foot, yet big enough. Brissy was going through a construction boom when I visited, many skyscrapers and apartments being constructed. The urban sprawl is huge compared to European cities though. The state of Queensland is stunning with rainforest and mountains inland, amazing beaches and small towns North of Brissy, like Airlie, Hervey Bay and Noosa . Never visited the Gold Coast, by-passed it for Byron. I was travelling down the East coast where I eventually ended up in Melbourne for work, another nice yet big city, the climate was not sub tropical like Brissy.
What a great comment!!! Thank you for sharing so much ❤️
I love love love Australia, I have been staying in Melbourne, Sydney, but I think Brisbane will be my favorite city although I haven’t been there, Now I want to move to Brisbane although I have no idea how it’s gonna to happen. My soul is there.
Well, I hope you're able to make the move to Brisbane sooN!! Thank you so much for watching!! :)
Apart from amazing photography and crisp editing.. I like your superb presentation.. Brisbane is definitely a beautiful city 👍
Thank you so much for watching and for the lovely comment - so glad you enjoyed the video :) Phoebe x
Greetings from the American Land of Oz, the State of Kansas! I really want to come and visit Australia but funds and COVID... Cheers and take care of yourselves!
Hahah the land of oz! Love it! I hope you can visit our oz very soon 😊
Phoebe, great program you make! Please continue! Greetings from Moscow!
Thank you so much!! Please stay safe over there!
Just wanted to say thanks for the video! I’m from the UK and visiting in about 5 weeks’ time - this vlog has given me some fantastic tips! 👌🏼
Oh wow 😍😍 thanks so much Kelly! Means the world!!
This seems to be a very charming place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!

Oh it must be so hard being separated from them for so long! Thinking of you and hoping you get to see them soon x
wow so beautiful city ......thanks mam
Thanks for watching 🙌🏻
Hi Guys, visited Brisbane in Nov 2018 whilst staying on the Gold Coast - Thanks for the video - can't wait to re visit!
Hello!! I hope you had a great time when you visited 😍
@@travelforphoebe Love the views from Mt Coot tha -
You and Matt are so lucky to live in such a beautiful place. Brisbane seems so “chill” for a major city. This was such a great video , can’t wait to see more from you both 🙂👍🏻
Haha it really is very chill! I think that’s what I love about it the most (that and the great, warm weather)! We’re definitely very lucky to live somewhere so amazing. Thanks for watching 🥰
Hey I just stumbled upon your channel. Great stuff! Love my home town of Brisbane, I miss it heaps! Currently living in Switzerland, hope you guys make it over here, cheers!
Hi!! Thank you so much for the lovely message 😊 hopefully, it gave you a good dose of home to keep you going while you’re away!! Have the best time in Switzerland 😊 Phoebe x
Hello Beautiful & Energetic Princesses Phoebe..So amazing & beautiful an other video of ur Homeland.
Thanks for watching Usman
Awesome video as always showcasing our city! Did you wanna do am updated video this year perhaps after Queens Wharf opens? Would be great!
Great video as always. I envy you for living in such a beautiful city (and country)!
One small gripe - I wish there was better equalisation (?) between the music volume, and the parts where you speak.
Thank you so much!! We really are so lucky 😍 it’s always good to hear what people like or don’t like 😊 we do our best but can’t make it perfect for everyone - one person’s loud is another’s soft 😂🙌🏻 thank you again! Have a great day!
Magic city. Most liveable city in Australia. Yes lived in Sydney in the best suburbs for 25 years.
We totally agree Anne! Thanks for watching.
Good to hear ❤️ yeah I have grown up in inner city Brisbane. My dad grew up at Bondi in Sydney yet he still thinks Brisbane is #1 😂
@@sszzsxvsHad a surf shop on the front at Bondi way back. Best move i ever made was moving north to Gold Coast but absolutely love Brisbane. Such a liveable city compared to cold fractured Sydney.
Great for younger people with houses half the price of Sydney.
Try Prince Indo fusion 77 Denver Road Carseldine QLD Australia
Beautiful tour, thanks for sharing, one of my big cities.
Our pleasure! Thanks again Marion!
I know exactly what you mean by splurging on a fantastic dinner and champagne to celebrate the start of a new chapter. I did that with my wife when I left my old job, and we are so happy now and still remember the wonderful dinner we had together that night. Great video guys !
It’s an amazing feeling huh! Made me realise how important it is to celebrate moments like those 😊❤️
I love this wholesome comment
Fascinating ! I can not wait to come and taste the Brisbane .
Thank you!
That's a great video you guys!
I have visited Brisbane a couple of times but only for work trip so haven't been able to explore it nicely. But this video inspires me to do so.
Thanks so much Akashi! So happy it inspired you. That’s the best we could hope for. Thanks for sharing and watching :)
I'm so dying to visit Australia, I want to visit Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide.... Can you hook me up with any Australian? I so need an Australian friend
hahaha it's easy to make friends in Australia! I'm definitely biased but I think Aussie's are really friendly :) All you gotta do is start talking to someone! You'll probably end up best mates for life.
Then I will start talking to you rather cuz even on Facebook they don't accept my friend request and since I don't live in Australia it is difficult for me to get an Australian friend..... So either you hook me up with a friend or I start talking to you ...heheheh
I have been living here for almost 7 years and I toured Australia but so far QLD is my N 1
Oh I’m so glad you like it here! Thanks for watching!
Most liveable city in Australia. Excellent video. Well done !
Totally agree! 😍😍😍 thanks so much for watching
Nice video of Brisbane👍
Thank you so much! 🙏🏼♥️
Moving to brisbane 14 years ago, definitely seeing so many changes in that time. Spending time in most of the cities in Australia, definitely up there as 1 of the best cities in Australia
We love it too Suj. Thanks for watching !
I'd love to see a video of things to do or places you like to eat in the suburbs north of Brisbane :)
Okay!! Thanks for letting us know 😍🙌🏻
A beautiful river, with plenty of amazing spots to explore all the way up the Brisbane Valley.
Thanks for doing a video of my city guys ❤ #missinghome #brizzy
Thanks for watching Tasha! We hope you get back to Brizzy soon :)
@@travelforphoebe thanks guys I hope so to 😁
YASSSS Brisbane is the best!! Love our Hometown, thanks for making this awesome vid! Proud 😍 😍
Me too :) We're so lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world, huh. Thanks for the lovely comment, sweetheart xxx
What is the best nice fancy restaurant with great view in Brisbane?
Love the westend and south Brisbane area
I love South Brisbane too, thanks for watching Brent!
Love living in this beautiful city.
Gateway to northerm Queensland? R u nuts. U know how far away that is... like 4 days drive!
😂😂 thanks for watching!!
You’re obviously not Australian it’s just down the road
Hahahahaha 😂😂
That was so enjoyable to watch. You chose the best place to stay, right there at South Bank. Its certainly worth swimming at the man made beach, with dressing rooms close by. Yes, so much to see. There are also free lunchtime concerts at the City Hall on Tuesdays at 12 noon. Its called the Lord Mayors Lunchtime concerts. Worth seeing who is playing … can be from jazz to classical and more.
Thank you so much!! We really appreciate the kindness and support 😊🙌🏻 thanks also for sharing your tip!! It’s a goodie ❤️ Phoebe x
Love you too beauty
Thanks for watching 🙌🏻
The best city ever!!! BRISVEGAS!!! Wanna go back😭
Isn’t it! Thanks for watching Jason :)
So much recognition from my trip to Australia back in December'19/January'20. It's still feels unreal I've been here just 2 months ago! I liked the quietness in South Bank and I loved the public swimming pool🥰. Also the parks were a great way to relax. Especially the public chairs in the park next to the Ferris Wheel. It's a great way to escape the busy CBD in which the traffic was terrible. I didn't know CityHopper was free, I used the $2,70 CityCat all the time. Also, I liked how the Kangaroo Point bridge was completely covered in blue light during night😍. It seems Brisbane is even more beautiful by night than by day. I love to have a kitchenette in my hotel as well. Fun fact: I slept in Oaks Felix on Felix Street, you may guess once why I booked this property😇. I would love to do a helicopter ride, I have never done such thing in my life so far🥺, I'm gonna save it for my New Zealand trip in the future🤗. Thank you for giving me a flashback to my best holiday ever and have a great week! 🤙

hahaha Watching this would've been like visiting all over again for you, Felix! I can't believe you stayed at Oaks Felix!! I used to work right on Mary Street when I had an office job still :) So glad you had a good time when you visited. That Polar Steps thing is so cool!! It looks like you had the best time - I really liked seeing our city through your photos :D P x
I liked Queensland very much!!!!!!
My Favourite TH-cam Channel.....- Biggest fan From Sri Lanka.
🥰🥰🥰🥰 thank you sooooo much!
Which month was this video taken ?
If God says' i have planned to join Brisbane's life soon moving out from Ethiopia to AU, Brisbane and am so exited to live and explore new things there. Just wish me Luck❤❤🙏❤
GOOD LUCK! You got this :)
We started doing shots every time you say “you guys” 😂
Jokes aside enjoying your Noosa, hinterland, Brisbane vids to help us plan
I wouldn't recommend that hahaha you'll get blitzed very very fast! :)
Thank you, thank you so much for the great videos! Thanks to you, our trip to Sydney and Brisbane went super smoothly! Unfortunately 7 days wasn’t enough, but we will be back for more adventures!
Thank you so much for letting me know! :) So glad you had a good time!
Wow! 😯 I love it! ❤️
Thank you so much 😊
I guess Brisbane is the most liveable city in Australia and i love it! I’m going to move there after the virus ends but i’m not sure if i could get a job easily. You haven’t mentioned about that. How are the job opportunities there?
Thank you so much for watching! This video is aimed at travellers rather than providing info on relocation :) I haven't had to do any job hunting for quite a while so couldn't provide accurate insight. I'm sure there are better sources for that type of info. Hope you have a great end to the year and thanks again for watching.
A beautiful trip indeed making all dreams come true, with the chopper ride...
You got that right!
southbank is my fav place. southbank is definitely better in life tho 🙌🏽
Yesss I agree - you gotta experience it in person to understand/see why it's so beautiful, huh?!
Enjoy it while it lasts, won’t be like this for much longer!
Haha I intend to! 🙌🏻
Yeah it’s growing really quickly. I live in inner city Brisbane & its changed drastically in the last 5 years of my life
Hi I'm sitting in cold UK, sniffling memories of my last visit. Hoping to return later in the year to see my family in Brisbane and Adelaide.
Haha oh noooo! I’m packaging up some warmth and sunshine and sending it your way 😊♥️ Hope you can see your family soon! Phoebe x
Wow! thanks for the great trip around some of my fav haunts and for helping me discovering some new ones
So glad you enjoyed it and discovered some new things to do. We love Brisbane too.Thanks for watching!

@@travelforphoebe your very welcome, his attitude was crappy, I can’t stand men who act like that. It’s a treat being on here and creeps like him don’t belong. Good on you! Your vlogs are brilliant love seeing Aussie again. Xx
I can’t stand it either. Thanks again for support and kindness 😍♥️

@@travelforphoebe hahaha good idea
I lived in West End for 10 years and now in Sunnybank QLD. I have never heard of the helicopter ride but it’s what I am going to look up ASAP! Thank you for reminding me how beautiful my hometown is and all it has to offer. What a beautiful site and experience to be able to see Brisbane from up top. Fabulous 👌❤️
Would Love to see you guys

Thanks for the beautiful story.. 👍
You’re very welcome, thank you for watching!
Hello ❤
The water is so brown
hahaha I know! There are some great local jokes about it being 'the mighty brown' river and I'm pretty sure there was a parody song made about it and a local radio station had a whole gag about it for a while. It's great! :D Thanks for watching.
The government dredged it for years that's why
Every now and then, from the right angle, it almost looks blue 😂
My home.Best city in the world.
We totally agree! Thanks for watching.
3 months after this video i was staying in rydges southbank in hotel quarantine when i got back from spain haha!
Loved it & u also cute... 😍
Thank you so much for watching :D Have a great week - Phoebe x
Hi
Great content. Thanks for this video, I can’t wait to explore Southbank 😁

Thank you for the great tour. I loved my last visit to Brisbane and hope to return soon.
I’m so happy you enjoyed our home town 😍
