    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!

    Cheers, David!
    20 an hour is really a cash in hand rate, (no tax) if you're not a youngster (under1 they get less.

    You can pack supermarket shelves of the evenings and get more than 20 bucks an hour if its above board taxes paid.

    See if you can get a working visa and life will be easier.

    Bikes you just go for your learners permit over here and you can ride up to a 650cc, I think maybe only a 500 if its 2 stroke larger if a 4 stroke . Its just questions on a computer screen or paper after you study a book for a week or two, easy test on road rules. Then you can ride on L plates for as long as you wish too.

    Yeah I'm planning on getting a workin visa! And I got this foreigner card that make things less pricy, no idea what is it but its included in the working visa! That card will give me discount on certain hotels, spa, resturants, fligts etc. Well of course I want to get out as much cash as I can, Do you know any job sites where is possible to apply for jobs? or phone numbers avalible?

    That licens is almost the first thing i need to get when i come over though!
    Well a 250 is enough power for sure, just need to get from A to B, Well I have no problem studying though! Just need a cheap bike, fresh, low miles. When I'm done with it you can have it mate!

    Hope you guys have some boxing gyms aswell
