I'd love to at least visit down there for a while. Don't know about moving there for good. That guy from Killer Instinct seems to think it's a great place to live, and I think he's pretty damn cool.
word this place sucks.nycgirl said:OMG!! In a heartbeat.
I've been in the D.C. area for four years, and I'm starting to realize that this area isn't for me. When I'm done with Grad School, I will likely move to another state (considering going overseas too).
Go for it.

Hi, I just read this thread. 
Wow, I cannot believe that you are considering to move over here. Excellent
Brisbane is a quite place all year round and it can get pretty hot in summer time, I would only go there for a holiday because I like the fast paced life. You could buy less expesive property in Brisbane closer to the water than you could in Sydney.
Australians are very friendly and relaxed people. Someone compared the Australian way and level of life with Canadians' to some degree and you have nothing to worry about here. The culture shock is not that huge. We speak english and we have a lot of people from all over the world. The food is great, you will find lots of fresh vegetables, sea food etc.
The beaches are amazing and the water is so warm and beautiful full of hungry sharks.
I would recommend our country to anyone!

Brisbane is close to the best beaches in the country from what I have seen and been told as well. Queensland is gorgeous and is near the Great Barrier Reef, and so many gorgeous white sand beaches (Whitsundays). Very laid back culture there. Is GD from Queensland? I can't remember. Either there or NT.
Anyway, as an American who has moved and lived in Australia (Melbourne), it's not THAT big of a change culturally. It's a merger between American and British culture, therefore you kind of get the best of both worlds with beautiful scenery to boot. I loved my time there and met so many great people. I hope to go back sometime soon.
Anyway, it is different obviously, and you are very very far from the rest of the world, but once you get immersed in the culture and people, you don't really care anymore. I do agree visiting first is the best way to go, but at the same time, visiting isn't living there. There is a big difference. You can go on vacation somewhere but not experience what it is like to live there. You basically just have to go for it and dive in head first. My guess is that you wouldn't regret it at all.

well the job is in brisbane. but its probably a long shot and im not sure i could really do it. i mean it sounds so exciting to do it but we would be leaving some heartbroken people here, lol.
but what is the cost of living like in brisbane. say we were making roughly roughly 125k? is that good, bad avg?
