What is life in Melbourne like?

Our unis are being gutted at the moment because they lost all their international student money. Don't expect a good University experience

Please elaborate.

There's lots of easy women, I mean, they're probably not wife material but in Australia it's easy to get laid. I'd say, generally our population is average looking, but if you go out to the night clubs and bars they are filled with attractive chicks. Even if you go to a quiet pub during the day, there will be at least one cute bartender.

Everything is moving online and you will have to do everything yourself because of staff cuts.

Depends on the uni and course. Deakin still has good resources

vietnamese canadian here. whenever i read about australia, i get sad that they keep letting in so many mainland chinese.

i have acquitances/co-workers from china at my uni and they all think the hong kong protests is a CIA conspiracy/uyghurs should be detained/etc. and some of their community organizations are literal CCP fronts created to control their diaspora. alot of them are basically a fifth column and pretty much ruin the image of asians because of how ugly they are physically and personality wise. most other asians become normie as fuck or keep it lowkey, but not these guys.

obviously white people can't be trusted to handle china, wish they would just only let in asians not from china since they are actually loyalty citizens.

pic related; the ugliest people imaginable. its always the most cringe looking people who become turbo-nationalists.

seriously, the only group willing to pretty much shit on china here is vietnamese since they hate china and won't be called racist. letting in only anti-china asians will pretty much balance out the CCP shills in australia/canada.

Meh, the Chinese individuals aren't an issue here. The issue is the politicians allowing Chinese to own too many assets. For instance most of our dairy farm land is owned by Chinese. They just have such political influence which ultimately means Australian cost of living goes up and Australian GDP goes down. So our economy has been on a very slow but steady downhill trajectory since 2012.

Interesting. That’s a lot to consider. How about Canberra?
I heard Adelaide had the most attractive girls. Something to do with the Italian ancestry there or the like.
What about by early 2022?

Melbourne was fun and there was a lot to do.

I studied there with some Brits and they loved it.

Canberra is boring as absolut fuck. You need to drive everywhere and the only people that love there are government workers. Also it is either 40 degrees of -20 degrees. It's boring and uncomfortable. The only reason to study there is if you want to network with people in political networks. In terms of having fun in Australia, I would say Canberra is the absolute worst place to go.

There is some good tourist things if you're interested in Australian history, but you can see all of those things in 2 days max. And to see the most interesting things, you want a tour guide who is a free Mason because they can point out the symbolism of the architecture throughout the city. Canberra was built by masons. And seeing the transformation of old symbolism to new symbolism between old parliament house and new parliament house is very interesting if you're into that. But other than that you will be bored shitless.

The surrounding suburbs of Canberra are nothing but families of government workers so it's all family friendly with nothing of interest.

If you're in Melbourne I would recommend doing a 3 day road trip up the sapphire coast of NSW then ending up in Canberra to look around, but leaving after a couple nights. The sapphire coast is beautiful and has so much to see and do along the way. Canberra is cold, bland and boring.

mate they literally join in on campaigns to harass political dissidents/hong kong/tibetan/uyghur diaspora here whenever they protest.

they literally have wechat groups led by actual chinese communist party members who keep them in line.

Adelaide doesnt necessarily have the most attractive girls, but it has the highest proportion of single woman under 30. This is due to the fact that most men leave adelaide after highschool to study in another state or to work in the mines. So if you go to one of the 3 adelaide nightclubs it is filled with more girls than boys. Adelaide is alright but it is the city of churches so everything is closed on Sunday essentially.

I wont dent some do, but the majority of Chinese here just want to work or study. They mostly stick to themselves unless they want to practice their English, then they might branch out. We really dont have any radical Chinese. In fact, we have chinese who work as community engagement officers for the Chinese community and what they find is that the constant sick swinging of Australian and Chinese politicians is what ultimately has a negative impact on their wellbeing. It makes them scared, and it increases Australian hostility towards them.

The working class Chinese and the Chinese students are fine, it's the fuckers in suits lobbying the politicians that cause the social upheaval.

Another thing is that despite community engagement processes, Chinese nationals dont recieve good sources of informative news from Australian sources here, they get most of their news from Chinese sources. So if the Chinese government says something, they listen. During COVID for instance, many chinese got scared and went back to china because their government said it wasnt afte and it said the Australian government had lost control of the country and wouldnt protect them. The situation was never as bad as the chinese government said, but the Australian government didn't bother to properly communicate otherwise. The communication came from chinese Australian government workers who worked in health promotion and community engagement. But because neither government backed what they had to say, no one listened.

I plan on doing that sapphire coast drive when things return to normal.

Never mind then. Seems like a showdown between Sydney and Melbourne for me. Brisbane and the Gold Coast are appealing too, but probably not an option since I can’t imagine their universities/colleges are as good as those in the other two cities.
Well, Adelaide would never be an option anyway. I’m sure the girls are alright anywhere in Australia.

Good on ya mate. Make sure to stay a night in Narooma. It's a beautiful town. If you can stay in a motel on top of the hill you can do a pub crawl to the bottom of town, have dinner at the club, then get a free courtesy bus back up the hill to your motel.

Also, stop into Cobargo. It's a historical village, burnt down in the fires recently but if the art place, chocolate store and leather shop are open it's worth a look.

Sydney is expensive and shit. Everyone is a narcissist there. The city isnt easy to get around via public transport either, not can you walk through the city. Kind of have to taxi everywhere.

University of Queensland is actually very good and has done a lot of world leading scientific research. It depends what you're studying. Like university of Queensland is leading the way in Australian corona research, also they are currently doing world leading research into a cure for dementia. In the last study I read by them, they cured dementia in rates via non invasive sound waves and were waiting on approval for human trials.

I was wrong, it isnt Cobargo I was thinking of, it was Tilba Tilba which didn't burn down, so go there.

Sydney is a really big city though. Surely, it can’t all be like that?
Also, I will look into the UoQ too then. I want to study either medicine or law. Quite different, of course, but my qualifications and those I aim to achieve will cover both of them.

Any Melbourne pros online? What are the no go suburbs/areas. The places that are dangerous and you do not want to be caught in after dark.

Sydney has been the hub of the elite since Australia was established. It has been plagued by varying levels of corruption over the course of its history. So no, it isnt all bad, but you have to understand that elitist corruption is ingrained in its culture. It is also the city where all the rochest people in the country live, so you have a culture of brown nosing and people trying to get ahead so they can get close to the money.

Overall Melbourne is much more laid back and just more accessible. Like, the hidden gems in Melbourne, you will stumble upon just by exploring. Whereas, the hidden gems of Sydney are gate kept by having to know the right person.

Either way law and medicine you'll be good in Melbourne, medicine you will be good in Queensland, cant say for law there. You could probably do well in law in Sydney, but a couple of my mates studied law in Melbourne and climbed quite high quite quickly because the networks are more accessible.

I'm probably being a bit harsh to Sydney, but I only know one person who likes it there more than Melbourne, everyone else if not melblurne, likes somewhere else in Aus. No one says Sydney is their favorite place in Australia. Definitely some good places in NSW like nimbin, but Sydney is just so evil and elitist.

Anyway, that's my 2 cents, hope it all works out for you and you have a good time.

Cranbourne, Sunshine, richmond are the big ones. Dandenong and bayswater are bad if you stumble too far from the train station after dark. I cant speak for the northern and western suburbs because I have never had reason to explore around there.
