I go via train, I and I take the train for the exact same reason, its too expensive to drive, but luckily mine is just one train from parramatta to wynyard. I have been to the darling square area, its lovely, especially at the night, all your food looks delicious
Yeah 100% agree driving can be expensive. Thanks for watching! The city in general now is probably a bit more nicer at night with all the Christmas decorations and lights being put up
Wonderful video! I always get really happy whenever I get a notification that you posted. I have visited all of these locations in Sydney!! I am interested in seeing your favourite Asian snacks. Keep up the great work 😁
Driving in Sydney in peak hour is an absolute nightmare! Miss one turn off and you'll probably rack up $20 tolls and +20 minutes hah. I'm walking distance to the new metro so that's been a life saver getting into the city when needed.
Thanks for watching. Agreed with the peak hour comment. Heaps good your near the metro, I've seen photos of it and it looks really nice. I will have to try it soon.
Hi Sensei, Been really busy with work and personal stuff the past week. But I am to release a vlog tomorrow night. Filmed some stuff in the City today. Will edit tomorrow.
For the whole 20 days- holiday you have, those are including public holidays? Here when I used to work private company (not government) we allow max for 4 weeks that's not including public holidays. So we got 4 weeks holidays from com.( depend on you seniority) like a year of working you only have 1 week holiday , plus public holidays.
So we have 20 days annual leave (minimum required by law) which we can use on any days we want but some companies can force you to take it during the Christmas period. We also have 10 days sick leave (minimum required bt law). Public holidays are seperate from annual leave.
Hey mate! I am really enjoying the new content, it’s coming along really well. I was wondering though where you got Riku from in Sydney? I’m interested in that cat breed and colour 😊
Thanks for watching! Riku is a British Short Hair cream color. In regards to where we got him from, we got him from a breeder on gumtree. But if I had one advice, that is to be careful because a lot of scammers on gumtree.
@@wasabiq2202 @wasabiq2202 no wonder Aramdale's property prices are going through the roof over there. Very nice. I hope Seville Grove will get that enjoyment too at Sherwood?
Hey thanks for watching. So in Australia from what I've researched and from what I've gathered from other drafters / my own. 1-3 years experience = $33 000 to $70 000 a year inclusive of super. 3-6 years experience = $70 000 to $110 000 inclusive of super 6-15+ years of experience = $90 000 to $160 000 inclusive of super After the 1-3 years of experience mark, what you can earn really varies dependent on your negotiation skills and experience. But I guess to say average would between $70 -$120k with at least 4 years of experience.
@@BrandonSayasane I see, does having additional bachelor degree help in negotiating for higher salary even if it's unrelated to civil engineering? Is age a factor too? Thanks for answering.
@@RUclipsDude-x3n Hey Thanks for watching. I have a Bachelor Degree in Business Administration and it hasn't helped me negotiate a better salary. I think experience in the industry/field helps more. Also knowing the what you are worth, so ask on the higher end of the industry average. Age can impact in Australia legally, if you younger than 21 I think it is a lower rate purely based on age, otherwise I don't think it has an impact.
@@nswtrains3153 oh thats very interesting. The building doesn't creak but one of the elevators is super shaky. Some colleagues get worried about it, especially since we are on a high floor.
It's nice to see your brand new vid, Brandon. It's been a while since the last one. I'm just curious, are there lots of people living in your house? coz I noticed a lot of slippers outside😆Well, thank God, I work remotely but if I would choose, I would rather drive going to the office since public transportation here in PH is not that as good compared to other developed countries. As usual, I got hungry while watching you eat those tasty looking food. I had a chance to taste that bottled drink when I visited JPN, and I super liked Yan-yan as well. My favorite bottled drink is C2 (Apple flavor). Would love to see you making a vid abt your fave snacks. I am always a fan of night drive 😊
Thanks for watching! It has been a while, only 2 people living at my house. We just have a lot incase guests want to go outside. I have tried the C2 drink and I do like it as well. It would say it is on the sweeter side.
The same thing that we do in our house - there’s a lot of slippers in case there are guests. Yes, C2 is more on the sweet side. Looking forward to your next vid!
Nice videos mate! Im from Sydney (with a similar commute) so relate to alot of things in your videos. Nice and chill to watch when im working from home haha Edit: love the spare thongs outside haha
Thanks for watching. Yeah petrol prices have been crazy for a while now. Do you use the 7-11 Fuel app to lock in prices? I find it helps for me to get good deals. I use it in combination with the NSW fuel Check app if your in NSW Australia.
@@Coolwow437 oh lucky you get a discount. But I'd still try the 7-11 app to see the prices. Sometimes the price difference might be more than 5c a liter.
Thanks for watching! Opal card is actually really easy to use lol. All you need to do is Tap on beforr you start your journey and tap off at the end of the journey. Assuming you have money in the opal, thats it.
Public transport. Can do stuff on train. It frees up your mind and time on the commute. That's freedom. It helps with achieving lower carbon emissions. It helps save cost, immensely compared to a private motor vehicle. Factor in depreciation of vehicle, registration and maintenance fees, and upfront capital, the cost of public transport will be negligible. There is no better reason to use public transport unless the person is a truckie or a tradie. Eco-socialism. Rail and rideshare ftw. a jaw dropping 267 bucks. if you were to cut back the lobster, the original 100$ per couple would be normal. I believe there are marginal gains once you pass the $30 a meal mark. Night time is dangerous due to low light conditions. It is dead with no traffic, that might offset it. The best time I've driven is on the Barrier Highway on a Weekday, not a public holiday, around midday hours from Broken Hill to Adelaide. Complete desert, Surreal. Contradicts my public transport stance, but cars should be used in between rural areas, generally in the city it does not have full speed potential.
Thanks for watching! I do agree with the public transport being free to do whatever whilst on it. And yes all the extra costs you mentioned about the car is true. Yeah would not normally spend that much on dinner. But because special ocassion. I think if we ea out on average for both us we usually only spend $40. The $30 meal mark for gains, I would disagree. For me personally it would be over $100 per person. I've had some really nice meals that were around the higher end (but wouldn't be an everyday thing). With night time driving, I agree it is dangerous if your driving rural areas. But onnthe highway or urban areas its fairly well lit and its nice that there is no traffic. And I hate inner CBD city driving. Always traffic and can get confusing lol.
That looked like the Oporto next to the Ichiban Boshi Express in The Galleries, I love that place! Haha.
Yes it is!

Its quite nice for the price.

Thanks for watching. Yes I will make that snack video!
As a student pursuing a career as a civil drafter, this video is really informative and interesting.
Thanks for watching
Dopa Donburi at Darling Square (or Regents Place near Town Hall) is worth trying if you haven't yet! Though not as fancy as Lilong.
Yes I've tried it before. It is quite nice!
3 minutes ago is crazzyy🤧♥ keep going mate!
Lol that is crazy!
Absolutely loved this vlog!😁

Hi Brandon! I am also an office worker in Sydney! nice to e-meet you :)
@@오윤O-YUN Hello nice to meet e-meet you. I see that you also have some vlogs too!
Heard about the weather nowadays in Sydney is cold. Stay safe there, buddy. Good video vlog and always looking for your videos.

I take public transport 4/7 days a week here in Perth. So far so good.
How long would your average public transport ride be?
Perth needs more trains
@@BrandonSayasane Going to my workplace would take around
@@Dreamer10888 I know, right! I also work in Armadale, and I can't wait for the new and upgraded train line.

Public transportation such as train is very inconvenient for people who live in Southern California.
Yeah I heard public transport is terrible
Hey mate may I know what's the salary range for fresh graduate with civil engineering diploma? Also how much further can it goes up to? Cheers.

Thanks for watching. Ha ha yeah I have a bit of collection of thongs outside.
I don’t recommend living in the suburbs, I live in Alexandria so I don’t need a car anymore
I just don’t recommend junk food guys, please thank you
