You and your family are the poster children for ideal immigrants. You did your research and made a thoughtful educated decision to move and what's more have made an effort to get involved and get on . More power to you. Glad to have you in Australia 💕
Awww, really appreciate that comment
2:50 It also showed a NZ flag as the Aussie flag.
ha ha yeah just spotted that and thought What a bloody Wombat
Love your reaction Ross. So glad you and the family came here and embraced your new life and are enjoying it. You really have become a true Aussie. Straya 🇦🇺
He knows so little of Australia that he showed a New Zealand flag at 2.50. I also don’t believe he has “lived most of his life” in Australia as claimed. No one who has lived in Australia for an extended time sounds like him.
"it's a bit worrisome" 🤣
I thought he said he was born and bred here, lol bs
Totally agree with this
He also said "I live in the second most populated city in Australia" while showing a picture of the Brisbane river, also showed the Kurilpa Bridge (also Brisbane)) while talking about Sydney just to name a few.
Saw that 2.50 lol. My grandparents never lost their Scottish accents, came in their late 20s lived till their late 80's, God bless them 🥰
I admire you for sitting through some of this crap and as for Aussies traveling, I've been to quite a few places worldwide and nearly everywhere I've been there have been other Aussies
And I thank you for sitting though me, sitting through his crap
It's what we do and have always done. We can't get anywhere from here without "travelling".. Hello, I've just been picked up again because I speak, write and spell English and the internet doesn't.
Hey Ross, Good reaction to a crap misinform video… they got a lot of things wrong, including showing the wrong flag, and non Australian footage. Glad you appreciate our beautiful country, and spreading the word. 👍🇦🇺
The narrator claimed to be Aussie… but he’s not. The accent and pronunciation was totally wrong.
Cheers George
True that. The narrator sounds British to me. the text of the narration is also non standard and super weird- was it written by AI?
Public transport is pretty good in the major cities and the city to regional services are just fine. Not the best in the world but far from the worst. Why are we so car centric? It's a bloody big county and most of the people I know love to get out of town and go camping. Plus we don't have a problem traveling across the city to go visit a mate or relatives. I get that living in Europe has way more infrastructure and people tend not to move about such great distances all that often. But once you live in Oz you can't wait to get out and see this awesome continent - and that will be by car practically all of the time.
The “indigenous” section showed pictures of Africans, American First Nations people and Pacific Islanders
Kinda insulting isn't it?
Hi Mr Johnston, I enjoy your videos as they pretty much accurately reflect life here in Australia. I'm an Aussie (who's unfashionably proud of his British ancestry), but I feel lucky to be here - and I'm happy for your honest take on our country. Glad you're here, and cheers!
Thanks Richard, appreciate the comment
To the git's credit, at least he didnt cite our snakes and spiders as a reason to not live here.....that one always does my head in!
He would have done better to put an image of them up instead of the murderer in the mask
As an Australian i feel sorry for people in Europe and the Americas as they are so far away and isolated from the land of OZ : )
That's right
I dont even live in Australia and that guys video was obviously nonsense lol. Great video mate. Really hope I can get out there one day. My wife has said she'd do it fir a year but that's it. She wants our kids to grow up near their grandparents. Not sure if I'll change her mind but will never give up.
Your kids having their grandparents is an important thing, we thought about it long and hard too, but giving your kids the best life, and something you never had, well I personally think that's more important
@@ThatJohnstonLife I totally agree. I've done my research. Our quality of life would be so much better in Aus. I would earn considerably more, my wife would even need to work if she didn't want to. Better life style for the kids. Foe me it's a no brainer.
You have to dig deeper than "grandparents need to be near". With many people and seems especially females, the change is too much for them. The loss of familiarity and changeless life is beyond their emotional stability levels. AKA, many simply do not want to change. When you think on it, it isn't grandparents. As Ross said, it's all about the kids not about pop or nan. I suspect Ros's Samantha is a bit like that and needs constant reinforcement by him that this is the best for the kids and them. I really believe that family coming from os to visit once every 10 years will not fix it either, sad to say.
More connections with society, friends, clubs, commitments etc and kids making solid life friends bring home the realisation to homesick mums that this really is their home, not that other place from a former life. Five years may be a good number to bed in, not 1 year.
Great video well done!! Gave me a great laugh!
Thanks Karen
Thank you so much, welcome to Australia mate!! 🇦🇺👍
All good Jennifer
Great video and glad things going well for you. Me and my wife moved to Australia in 2017, although my wife struggled to break into her healthcare profession and had to work in aged care; in a job that really bored her. Furthermore, we got locked down for over 18 months in Melbourne pretty much and it caused us real trauma when borders were closed for us to leave country.
Great country and great people.......
Agreed Thomas
@@ThatJohnstonLife What do you agree with.....sorry just wondered.
I'm missing the lifestlye but I feel safer in UK for a few years.
@@tcailey80 that Australia is a great country with great people
thank you for information, very useful
Love your commentary, so funny 😂😂😂
Thanks Sarah!
Love your work mate
Thanks Daymo
As others have mentioned: It is “a bloody big country”!
I’ve travelled extensively through Europe & I really enjoyed it but I was so happy to get home & have some SPACE. To navigate all that space we need a car…it’s not rocket science 🙄😂
No-one moves here for the public transport
Lol love your take! Cheers from Tassie
Cheers Darren, hope the weather over there doesn't feel too much like NZ
Classic had a good laugh Welcome to Australia and enjoy :)
Cheers Pricey
33 years.
Not one single millisecond have I regretted the move. I love my life here.
In the very early years I did have occasional bouts of missing my family around birthdays and Christmas, but I never missed the actual country of England.
I chose to move here and I take it warts n all. I have never viewed it with rose tinted glasses, nor have I looked back across the water with a dream like idea of where I came from. ( those type of whingey poms give me the shts!)
I'm passionate about my beautiful country, consider myself Australian, find England to be foreign and am not at home when I go there.
I could not agree more with your assessment of this numbat ( who is 100% NOT Australian !!) and his stupid video!
But yes it is correct kangaroos and emus cannot walk backwards.
.
Onya!
I hope I feel like that for the next 33 years
@@ThatJohnstonLife I'm sure you will!
As you have said, there will always be things that give you the shts, that's real life.
Like you've mentioned here, all countries have imperfections ( In amongst living here, I have also lived in NZ and Ireland, with Australia as my base. In my late teens I worked in France, and the Netherlands, so I have a good idea about different lifestyles and pros and cons of places).
The fundamental thing about emigrating from a place, is being realistic about it, and taming ones expectations. The biggest mistake emigres make is leaving a place they think is ok, emigrating somewhere expecting Utopia.
They won't find it, it doesn't exist.
Kangaroos and emus not able to take a backward step is why they are on our countries emblem. He would have known that living in Australia!
thanks mate!
I really enjoy your videos Ross. I was born here (in Melbourne), but my parents are from the UK (they're Geordies) so I have dual citizenship. Although I'm currently in Perth, Melbourne will always be home for me. A few years ago I had decided to get out of Melbourne and was toying with moving back to the UK (where my parents are from) or Perth. I googled wages in the UK and was dumbfounded. Wages in my field would be 1/3 of what they are here. I work with a lot of poms who have migrated here, and it's a constant talking point. They would never be able to earn in the UK what they do here. A lot of British people don't realise that we have really high wages here, so paying a few hundred bucks to get to Bali or Japan is no big deal. And why is he saying we don't invest in public transport here? Sydney is currently spending 20 billion on a new Metro, Melbourne is building Metro 1, Perth is building 3 new train lines and extending two, and Brisbane is building Cross River Rail. Geez Ross, where did you find this video, it's completely stupid. BTW, "Strine" is a word. Say "Strine" out loud and it sounds like you're saying "Australian" in a really thick accent. "Strine" is a derogatory term for the language bogans speaks.
So many good things here!
"Australians don't travel much overseas"? Is he kidding? His accent sounded English and since he stated his country as India, I'm guessing he was educated over there.
Exactly 💯
I’m so surprised he didn’t mentioned the spiders, snakes and sharks. I’m from Melbourne and so many of us traveled to Europe after high school, aged 19 years old. So many Australians travel to England/Europe after school having not seen Australia at all.
Great vid bro, your a Brissy boy ay, I'm from Morayfield! 😁
Big up the Morayfield
Originally from Arizona, USA so the heat is something that can be similar, currently living in a rural town in Idaho. We have 1-6mb/s internet and no public transport. I am torn between Australia and New Zealand and am leaning to Australia as of now but I haven’t seen a single thing so far that is worse than what I’ve already thrived in. Everything seems about adiquite and on par or better than what I already have
Go for the better Nivek
Cry me a river, this guy had no air conditioning in his bedroom. Come to think of it, I didn't have air conditioning for the first 60 years of my life; can't imagine how I pulled through. It probably explains why I'm so bitter and twisted, well adjusted and content. This disaffected goose shows us the New Zealand flag at 2:50, seriously!! For a man who says he's "fluent in how this country functions" (but less fluent in how to speak the language) he shows that he hasn't got his head around Australian politics when he speaks of the "opposition coalition government". Make up your mind petal, they're either the opposition or the government; they can't be both. I could go on, but what's the point. Finally, where did he get that footage of indigenous people who aren't Australian first nations people; just goes to show he's right across his subject and speaks volumes to his credibility.
*laughs in New Zealand* , that is, whenever they compare Aus to NZ. There’s a reason despite our difference in populations, there are 10x more kiwis in Aus than there are Aussies in NZ.. 😆
I just love the rivalry you have between each other!
I married one of them. Someone has to keep them off the beaches. Doing my service to the country 😆
but when push comes to shove, we have each others back.
1:05min: Mate, tf!? The weather in the netherlands can be really quite upsetting! And Ross: Yes, it is hurting my feelings - for at least 4 whole months of the year...
WoW if that's what Australia is like i'm glad i didn't move there i'll just stayed rugged up here in Tasmania the land down under the land down under.
You're safe there
this guy is not Australian . but you are mate
Cheers Geoffrey!! Means a lot
That's the thing, especially when you talk about racism. We will embrace you as one of our own, no matter where you come from if you embrace us! We respect those moving here who make an effort to learn and live our culture, whilst at the same time, preserving a little of their own. I moved to Tasmania 7 years ago and consider myself Tasmanian. Imagine if I moved here and said I hated the place and wanted it to be like my previous home. Wouldn't be very well received!
1.49 picking on NZ?
Then at 2.50, he shows the NZ flag!
Glad u an aussie now. Welcome brother
Thanks Craig, appreciate it
When its near 4000 Km Top to bottom and the same across its pretty normal to get other weather i Reckon.
Haha, loved your reactions. What a weird video you reviewed! Is the narrator even real or is it an AI voice? Either way, good to see you putting up more great content 👍
I don't think it's AI as I kind of recognise it from a UK TV documentary or something, but it's definitely a paid actor
Whoever the voice is, he sure isn't 'born and bred Aussie' as stated.
@@ThatJohnstonLife Sounds like that whiney irritating doctor who does the series that everything we do is going to kill us? Mosley? something.
It does get darn hot here. So I just hibernate inside under the a/c on those crazy hot days 😁
Mines on right now
Thank you Ross...this should be shown in schools...
Too kind Peter
I'm glad you like living in Australia so much. I agree that guy is pretty stupid. I could say all those bad stuff about California. Natural disasters, bad weather, high costs etc. I am glad I came to USA but I do regret moving here. I miss Australia so much and hope to have the chance to move back. I still call Australia home
And yet people still flock to California too
Ross, thank you for casting your lot with Australia and defending it from the no-nothing knobs. Born Aussies love their country too, but those who've *chosen* to live here get extra brownie points.
Cheers Peter
Thank you Ross for making this video and pointing out how absurd some of these videos about Australia are. I live in Europe and I constantly have people ask me ''dumb'' questions about Australia just because they watched some video claiming how horrible the weather is or how ''dull'' the lifestyle is. I get so frustrated sometimes , especially when asked about bugs and ''deadly'' snakes that end up in people's toilets. Augh!!! 😤
Tackling the stupidity one video at a time
11:16 "Torr-EST Strait Islander" - Never heard any Aussie pronounce it with a "T" at the end.
Pommies have weird accents
"Strine" is a thing, its the really thick Aussie accent that's laden with slang - usually considered to be spoken by the uneducated
I am now a little more educated
I always thought Strine mainly referred Rhyming Slang - and I thought (could be wrong) most of it isn't specific to Australia - it largely derives from Cockney Rhyming Slang but we've added a few of our own. There's a few bits you might here a lot (e.g. The Old Cheese (Cheese and Kisses - Missus) - or perhaps more "Wanna go down the Rubbity?" (Rubbity Dub - Pub)), but I think very few people are actually "fluent" in it (I did know one bloke who could literally speak in it).
Right I’m old enough to remember dial up and next to that it’s great ha
Maaaate loved your reaction to this & reading the comments. Hell yeah, he's a bona-fide douche bag & sure as shit is no Aussie. As others have said being an Australian is really a state of mind. Spent many years living & travelling O/S & loved it. At 1st the ancient castles, buildings & cobble stone streets were really exciting. But after a few years I yearned & longed for modern architecture, blue outback skies & endless horizons. Somewhere along the way a DEEP, PASSIONATE, burning love for this wonderful land grew to point that you couldn't scrape me off Australia again to live with butter knife. Despite your accent mate you are 9/10's of the way there. Your positive attitude & obvious love of this wonderful country by default makes you one of us. A wonderful ambassador for your adopted country 😁
I'll work on the accent for you
Australia's not perfect by any means but he really seemed to be struggling to get to 10. Can't think of any of the nominated problems which are unique to Australia. And then most of the time he was backpedalling when he nominated a problem. I wonder if he can nominate better countries based on those 10 criteria.
The metaphorical barrell fell apart it was scratched so much
This vid cracked me up 😂
Cheers Martin
There is a word is Aussie Slang which I have forgotten. It refers to being gently dragged on a net on the back of a boat. Not a fishing net, though, just a large net for people to hold on to after a day of scuba-diving.
For too many years from the dawn of tv here, and radio, It was always British-centric, as being a colony, it was good form for radio announcers to sound british.... the same for early tv. Then we ended up with mostly tv shows from the Uk and USA from the 60's ( right until today as well ) and we got yanks on our screens to ad nauseum. in 1992 the govt mandated a percentage of broadcast time had to be aussie content, which gets reviewed regularly. Hence now we see a lot of our selves on our tv's.
I'm currently living in Sydney & rely on Public T'port. It's actually a very reliable, convenient, run very regularly and will take u pretty much anywhere here for a reasonable price. This is a Legacy of the 2000 Sydney Olympics when they simplified & improved the entire Network for the massive influx of Olympic Tourists. Always room for improvement, but I think its far superior to 99% of Public T'port Systems in the World (I have tried several).
We found Sydney public transport pretty good too, but then we didn't sample much of it to give a fair review
Hi Ross, I'm considering moving over to Australia myself, and to Brisbane also. I'm a plumber/gas engineer currently living near Liverpool, I know there's a mass shortage of trades people there, which is what I'll be looking to come over on with my visa. Just wanted some advice on what process you guys went upon arrival in the Aus, where you stayed, how you found work, how you decided where to live etc. Thanks, Luke
Hey Luke, this video might answer your questions
ruclips.net/video/XCDC7zgM1Q8/видео.html
Thanks a lot mate, really inciteful. Appreciate the information.
I suffered with no aircon as it needed replacing for 7 weeks over this summer here in Western Sydney. Try being inside my place in the Arvo with all doors and windows open and still it's in the high 20s. Some days it high 30s and that was inside my place.
Complaining about the weather and heat. 🙄
Imagine the 170 years of immigrants before air-conditioning and the 60,000 years before that...
What’s up Broski 🦋
👍
Showing a Kiwi flag in a whinge about Australia is a dead giveaway .
All of this guy's talking points can be applied to any other country , e.g. racism , cost of living etc ....really ? Yep bogus .
my train ticket from Milton Keynes to London Euston and then Victoria (daily travel card) is currently approximately 55 pounds (it was I think about 48 pounds when I used to do the journey - its gone up). Thats over 100$ day to travel intoi London by rail. The car parking in Milton keynes for the day back then 8 pounds a day - around 15 dollars. Also communting into London by car is not really viable. The traffic is horrendous, to park daily plus congestion charge plus petrol would probably get close to the cost of the train ticket, but with a much longer and stressful journey every day.
In Perth WA I drive into the city. Takes 30 mins. However sometimes I catch the train which is about 5$ each way. The distance is less than MK to London of course. But I always get a seat and its a nice relaxing way to travel.
I might go to Australia considering my father is an Australian and like half my family is there in NSW and QLD. NSW police seems fun
My biggest frustration with Australia was the house prices.......to buy in a good suburb in Melbourne with any life and facilities cost £ 600,000 +. Thats a huge mortgage to pay.
Especially with the interest rate hikes!
@@ThatJohnstonLife The market is 30-40% overvalued.......buying a property for us would of meant a huge risk.
Me and my partner are moving to Aus from the UK soon on a permanent skilled worker visa. Could you do a video around pregnancy, childcare and schooling? Would we pay the full amount or would so be covered by Medicare? We would like to know our options for the future. Many thanks 😊
The good news is that if you have permanent residency, you pretty much qualify for all the things you need like a citizen would, especially after being here for at least 2 years
My tip is Public schools in Oz a pretty good, I know Ross came here as a teacher, not sure if he's teaching public or private, but the teachers in both public and private schools here are of a high standard, yes there are some substandard teachers, but not many, but any kid who knuckles down and applies themselves will do well regardless of which school. The only real reason for choosing a private school in Australia is either you are very religious or for the parents self esteem.
Bravo 👏
Thanks Helen
Showing Brisbane which is the third largest city not the second.
Is that what he was showing!! Ha ha
@That Johnston Life Yeah, it was the boats on the pile moorings next to the botanical gardens in the Brisbane CBD, just around the bend from the south bank parklands.
As a weekend outing take the family for a bike ride, park at kangaroo point, explore kangaroo point first, then ride across the goodwill bridge (pedestrian and cycle bridge) from south bank to the botanical gardens then ride along along the north bank of the river CBD side to the kurilpa bridge (also a pedestrian and cycle bridge) back to south bank, then explore south bank (if you haven't already) on the way back to kangaroo point.
Great video mate....your accent is definitely becoming more aussie...Well yeah, the weather is crap these last 2 weeks thanks to La Nina (NSW & QLD) it's a once in a 100 year event....Internet is fine. Isolated...that is a definite PLUS, especially with what is happening in Europe...There is no way this guy was born & bred in Oz 🙄 Yes, Kangaroos & Emus cannot walk backwards. NO country is perfect & Oz certainly isn't, but I would rather be here than anywhere else...
Tell me about it
Showing New Zealand flag.
I noticed that after I had finished the video. I wish I had picked it up first time round!!
😂😂🤣
The term Lobster for a $20 note is something I’ve never heard in Perth or Melbourne. Maybe it’s a Brisbane thing. 🤔
At 2.49 that is not even the Australian Flag .He also forgot to mention getting giddy hanging upside down when living here down under .
That's what that feeling is?
Best internet I found in Australia was in a place where they rented gaming pc's by the hour.
Of course

Watching this in February 2023 - the UK had three PMs in two months. Did anyone notice the image at 11:14? Not an indigenous Australian. And like Ross, I would also like to know where this guy is actually from.
So many questions unanswered
Yes the $50 is a pineapple and the $20 is a lobster but the $10 is a Pavarotti (because it's a tenor/tenner).
Pavarotti lol

4:35 "it's isolated, both geographically and metaphorically." So is Texas. Takes at least two days to go from end to end.
I guess so many people would regret living in Texas then?
Hi Ross some advice please my partner is the main visa applicant she qualifies as a early educator teacher in Queensland what’s the best suburbs or what area are you in? Please
Depends what you're looking for. My main advice would be to check your transport options, especially to the city if that's where you need to work
@@ThatJohnstonLife we both drive would like somewhere with a few shops and cafes close by and parks for our daughter.
What suburb are you in?
Yes we have crap internet, but put it in the context of the size of the country and population, goes someway to explaining it. Yes there are plenty of countries that have great internet but have a much larger population and are much smaller geographically.

I understood it
Actually, ‘strine’ is correct. It’s just older Australian. ‘Strayan’ is more recent.

What’s with the NZ flag? 😂😂 You called it, this guy is not Australian and has no idea. My parents were Scottish, they loved it out here from the second they arrived. Our weather can be volatile but more often than not it provides us with the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors, sun, swimming, barbecues etc. a lifestyle I otherwise wouldn’t be able to take for granted had my parents not immigrated. 😎
As an Aussie its pretty obvious this guy was not raised in Aust, simply by his accent.

If you watch kangaroos fighting they can definitely move backwards in order to get a better kick against the opponent.

Love these videos... Keep them coming x
We where both watching and commented just before you... " if you don't have air conditioning... Well who's fault is that" 🤔🤔🤔
Internet... Well nevermind, that Australia hasn't got the best Internet, but let's put this into some perspective... How big is Australia?
Isolation... In our opinion we are quite looking forward to some of this aspects... We both work with the general public and yes we will may have to continue with some of this, but coming back to a possible larger property that isn't hemmed in will be amazing, fingers crossed!
Travel... £9.00 WTF??? I bloody wish!!!
Public transport... Yes in Hull is quite good... Around Hull!! But across the bridge in Scunthorpe well this shocking... And the cost has just gone up AGAIN!
Cost of living is going everywhere...& Yes its bloody SCARY.
Racism... This is a hard one... Yes it's everywhere and it's horrible that it is.. But like you said, learning about the past events, poor choices, we hope that we can move forward and not let things ever happen again. I have been listening to some podcasts and want to learn and understand more, but again if you want to move into another place, country, culture, wouldn't you want to know about the place you are going to live.????
Some great points Sarah, and I'll try harder on my accent for you

Gonna assume everyone noticed the New Zealand flag at 2:53 LOL.
If you didn't there's something wrong with you
2:50 isnt that the flag of a suburb of Wollongong?
You may be an enthusiastic Aussie now but you're still using that English tendency to judge people by their accents. I'm Australian but, due to my English father, have always been told I sound 'posh'. Despite this, my parents struggled to make ends meet financially, as I do today. BTW - my friend flew from Milan to London for £17 just five years ago.
I'm trying to learn to judge less Kerensa. Just makes this easier that way.

Why the NZ flag at 2:50 while talking about Australia?
only way to find out about a country is to go there. i was in Australia for 2 months loved it the only thing i didn't like was the culture was almost exactly the same as the UK so i wasn't seeing anything that different
