    My parents had my brother's in-laws, who live in Carins, visit them in Perth for three weeks at Easter.
    The father in-law remarked that he had been in Perth almost a week and had not seen a cloud. Perth has more cloudless days than Brisbane.
    I was in Brisbane in April 1996 for a weekend and the weather was identical to Perth for that time of the year.
    No matter what your climate preference is, there is a place that will suit your needs.

    I’m also quite introverted Ben! I live in NSW and my favourite place is the Blue Mountains. It’s actually been snowing up in the Mountains and I so wish I was there. I’d prefer to live in the middle of nowhere, where I wouldn’t be able to hear a thing except the birds, the wind and the creeks.

    I live in Newcastle NSW and here are our annual hours of sunshine....Around 3220.24 hours of sunshine are counted in Newcastle throughout the year. On average there are 105.88 hours of sunshine per month. Having lived in Qld for 16 years I well remember the wonderful winters and the hot, humid and often cloudy summers...(due to the high humidity)...sunshine is pretty much an Australian benefit not just confined to the lovely north...

    Best value for tourists in Brisbane? The 2 hour Citycat ferry round trip between Northshore Hamilton and the QLD University. How much? About $5. Break your trip for lunch at The Regatta, or the City or Southbank, and two trips will cost under $10. Departures every 15 minutes.

    I loved when you use to go out for dinner and review the food and the markets, they were great knowledgeable videos, I think you could steer your videos in that direction more and you may get a lot more views, instead of telling people why maybe you should show them why, so they have more of an idea... anyway that's my opinion, you may take it with a grain of rice, but I think it may help.
