    Out of town is fine but not inner city from what I hear. Im in Melbourne we love it, we get all weather here,we live on the Peninsula out on the beaches.
    Tasmania is a fine place too. South Aust is ok.

    WA great place too, hotter though not humid like way up north and the far nth east, its a dryer more user friendly heat in southern WA. North WA is nasty though,40 deg days no wind,dust. Great wages on the mines up there though.

    Hard to get onto the wharfs here and in Sydney as its a closed shop,have to be introduced or born in if you get my meaning.
    I See! Well i've been checking up on bikes and I do have a driving licesn for cars, In Sweden we need a specific licens for motorbikes, I dont have that, But sense i have the regular licens i dont need to writing test? Just need to show them i can handle a bike?

    Been looking for some jobs in melbourne, Container jobs though, about 20 dollar an hour, Not sure what's good paid down there but i make a livin' though!

    Thanks for the advice Andre!

    And Armyash

    Well I have some savings soo I hope I get thru custom!
    In Sweden we can just lay on the sofa and getting paid from the goverment aswell, It drags to much people from south europe though! Soo i dont think its good!

    It would be nice to get some time off because im not a big fan of snow! So it would be perfect to leave in about 1 month!

    And for you guys who have nothing to do, Watch monster cup! Las Vegas Baby!
    Here's a live link
    Monster Energy Cup - October 20, 2012

    Cheers, David!


    Best of luck to you whatever happens.

    I spent a month in Sweden in 2006 skiing with the army, I agree too much snow haha. Had a couple of nights out but as we were there to compete most of the time was spent in accommodation watching tv.

    We were warned about getting in to fights when going drinking, apparently punishments are harsh for people who hit others with a closed fist so if fights do break out people slap each other.... is that true? we never actually found out haha

    I hoped you had a good time here though!

    Cant say I end up in alot of fights but if I did i would use my fists, No question and i dont think the punishment would be that harsh, And it wouldnt even matter if it would be a slap or a sweet left hookie Just knock him out cold, make sure noone sees it, and just say he drank to much

    If a fight even starts there's 1 hour of pure bullshiting before.

    Aah people dont really know how to fight in sweden, honestly As i said i havnt really been into a fight myself but i've seen some and they're just swinning badly, It was like two womens fight over who was first in line at Chick-fil-a if you know what i mean.

    Regards, David

    Looking back they were probably scarre tactics to make sure we behaved!

    Had a great time Sweden, we drove over from France, had a night in Germany that was eventful to say the least and the 4 weeks in Sweden were excellent! Have fun wherever you land
