    Just to clarify after so many people got offended. I made this video to help other people before they come to Australia. A common search phrase is ‘things I wish I knew before coming to Oz’ that’s why I chose that title! I have been researching before I went to Australia so I kind of knew about the weather etc. but even if you look at a map you don’t realize how big the distances are. Same with the other things, I never knew you can do a ski season etc.

      Where you pay $7 for Bananas ?-Which time of year was it? I can go to my local Aldi &buy them for $3AU per kilo, maybe $3.50-$3.60/kg at Woolworths/Coles. High wages= high prices. It’s all relative. Australia has a high Alcohol tax, so the stronger the alcohol like whiskey or vodka, then the tax will be higher than it is on a beer. By the way, where do you get a bottle ( when you say bottle , I hope you mean a 700ml bottle) of Vodka for €4 ? You smuggled it over from Poland? Yes alcohol is cheaper i Europe overall, but Europeans don’t drink as much as Aussie’s do( per person) ,so the Alcohol doesn’t need to have such highs taxes on it..

      @Timyra Jenkins Spider's are not that big, and if you're in the city, you probably won't see any. As for snakes , l haven't seen one in the 43 years l've been here in Melbourne. Visa is 3 months, l think you can get it extended. You need at least $6,000 Australian dollars a month, especially if you're gonna travel around nearly every day. Don't have more that $10,000 in cash on you when you arrive at an Australian airport otherwise you will get a fine. And don't have any porn on your phone, because custom officials at the airport will destroy your phone. And you will have to buy a new one. And don't bring food, it might get destroyed too.

    Not sure where you are shopping but my vegetables and fruit purchases are the cheapest items on the list and I usually buy the best quality and in season items available. I find the frozen conveinience foods and cleaning products to be the most costly. I live in the southern suburbs of Perth and I know country areas are more expensive, you mentioned Broome, I have not been there for years but it was definitely be one of the most expensive places to shop in Western Australia when I was there. Good honest information, great accent you have. Travel safe.

      travelwithlille you’re not wrong, I was just poking fun a bit! All the shit processed food in the supermarket is also pretty cheap even though it includes a 10% GST in the price whereas fresh produce does not. Another good example would be in the fresh produce section often there will be both local and imported garlic (often from Japan but sometimes Europe). The local garlic will be 50% more or sometimes even double the price.

    A note on "You can't come in. You're too drunk."
    I'm born and live in Sydney. One Friday after work I had a few drinks (Australian for- who's counting?) with an English friend of mine. We decided to go to another pub. As we entered the bouncer says, "Good evening." There were four guys behind us and the bouncer gave that you're too drunk line. So, two drunk thirty somethings in business suits are acceptable but four sober early twenties in casual clothes are not. In short, too drunk can be an excuse used when they mean, we think you are not the clients we are looking for.

In the end it's all comparable, yes some things are more expensive and also cheaper, day to day living prices are comparable in the end. Also if you do compare prices make sure to do it correctly, brand for brand or house brand for house brand.

    Depends on what part of Australia you are referring to, some parts are unbearably hot and humid all year round (northern Australia).

    Fresh produce is seasonal in Australia. Any fresh produce that's out of season usually becomes expensive.
    Right now bananas are between .99c and 2.99 kg depending where you shop and tomatoes are between 1.99 and 3.99 per kg. Also for travellers it is advised to try and find a fruit and vegetable only shop, these places are usually pretty cheap and can be better for local farmers too. Don't be afraid to not shop at a large supermarket...while these are good for basics like packaged goods and sometimes meat and fresh produce when in season...a dedicated fruit and vegetable shop usually always be cheaper.
    Be careful of some places when described as a market, they can sometimes be places where they think their produce is grown in soil made of gold...steer clear of places like this.

      "There have been no deaths in Australia from a confirmed spider bite since 1979. An effective antivenom for Redback Spiders was introduced in 1956, and one for funnel-web spiders in 1980. These are the only two spiders that have caused deaths in Australia in the past"

My kids, they had to do a term of something, and that was it; satisfied their school requirements in Victoria. In america, we had to do at least 1 year.. but still pales in comparison to somewhere like Germany. Really a sad situation for us. Wish we had to learn something from a young age and stick with it through 10 or so years of school. World would be a different place.

    Ya know, I think your grasp of the English language is very good! Like, I thought you were from Sarth Efrika (South Africa with a South African accent...)!
    You should come to South Australia. Less flies here, very laid back, best underground music scene in the country, Adelaide is small and closer to the countryside but snakes are very rarely seen, slower paced but still busy and very clean!
    The wineries here are nearly always looking for seasonal workers (not picking though) and there are lots of fruit growing farms that hire pickers on a regular basis! The pay is good and everything is easy to get to!!

    A bit of research into weather trends etc... you wouldn’t have had such trouble or surprise with half of these.

We had one year where it was more $$$ but that was from the cyclone destruction to the banana groves up north.

  • @liamjones8224
    @liamjones8224 3 года назад +1

    natural products (like bananas as you mentioned) would cost more because they are grown locally. The money goes straight from your pocket to the people selling, so they choose the price. Now me living in Canada, all foods that are imported are cheap, because often imported foods rely on cheap labour from second, third and fourth world countries. Cheap labour means cheap product essentially.

    • @robman2095
      @robman2095 2 года назад

      Very true. A few years ago there was a move to import some bananas when much of our crop had been destroyed by a cyclone and it was forbidden Because Australia is free of the most common banana diseases that most other banana growing countries around the world have from time to time. So we will never be importing bananas from cheap labour countries. We do import some oranges from USA in the off-season because oranges are so seasonal, but there is no risk of disease with them. Not much else is imported afaik. Just a few specialty things like asparagus etc.

    The amount of aussies offended have no idea that, despite hours of research, some things you just don't find out until you actually live in an area. Some things, like weather, are easily overlooked because of the common Australian portrayal as being hot 24/7. It wasn't until recently that I learned that the southern hemisphere has their summer months during the northern hemisphere's winters! It's easy to forget, especially if you don't watch the weather reports everyday in a different region/hemisphere from your own. So what would you know?
    And there are MANY different things you'll hear online - government registry or not. I've heard before that it is unnecessary to worry about spiders as "most" people have never seen a particularly dangerous snake or ridiculously large spider. Meanwhile others will say that they're everywhere! You'll just never know unless you go there, and what you find just may still be surprising- because there are so many different opinions!
