Built the houses first, then thought about the road second. Yep, you got it in one. That's actually exactly what happened. Brisbane is the same - it has a long street called Creek Street. Why? Well, it used to be a creek. The street runs exactly where the creek used to be.
Krispy 503 i recommend Brisbane because it’s close to the Gold Coast with theme parks and also the Sunshine Coast with Noosa and beautiful beaches and wildlife. And an hour or two flight away is Sydney if and Canberra if you want to see the capital and the city.
@@krispy503 it depends on what you like If it's food go to Melbourne If it's beautiful beaches, theme parks and recreation go to Brisbane / gold cost ( say hi as your going through as I work in the airport) If you want bad road and rude people go to Sydney If you want worse roads and 10x worse driver Melbourne (Victoria)
When the English arrived in Australia, Sydney was where they first settled. It was just a settlement with convicts from England. So there wasn't really any planning of roads. It was just people living and building what they could, then as more and more convicts and eventually free settlers arrived from England, Sydney grew with no real planning. Just adding streets here and there when ever it was needed. That's why to this day, the closer U get to downtown, the more chaotic the roads are. Theres no gridded streets. Streets end suddenly or cut across other streets diagonally in random places. Other major cities in Australia were more planned which is why when U look at maps of Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth, the streets are gridded.
There is a lot more to Australia that the East coast, i'm from Alice Springs , smack dab in the middle , it is well worth the time ,spent my life as a long haul driver, been all over this great land of ours but love the desert , A city anywhere is a city , nice places to visit ,
Sydney's roads are a result of being the first colony in Australia, so they were not planned out like in most cities. That is why the roads are confusing in Sydney. Not like Melbourne, we planned ours😜
Melbourne owes it all to the wise men from Sydney who the earlier days thought it was just going to be a small cattle town and made the streets wide enough to turn a big horse drawn wagon around in one go.
Canberra was actually an afterthought as it's made based on parliament house. The first parliament building was in Melbourne, but Sydney thought it should be there instead - I don't remember why - but because of that feud, we're just like: Let's put parliament in the middle BAM, ACT.
As an Aussie who has lived in Sydney for over fifty years, I found your appraisal very fair. I felt you was VERY kind in describing our drivers though. And yes, we tend to build housing first and think about infrastructure later - that's what we mean by ''She'll Be Right, Mate'' or ''No Wuckas''.
Sydney just blew up from a penal colony and then all the older nicer looking buildings and houses were torn down to satisfy real estate czars. I'm from Sydney but I like Melbourne better.
Mate what happened a lot in the older cities in Australia is that they started out as separate townships that grew until they collided. I live in Newcastle, New South Wales it is very much a case in point. Newcastle was settled by us white people because of coal. Initially the coal was mined by convicts but later by free miners. They would find coal and establish a coal mine. A township would grow around the mine. Over the years the townships expanded until the space between them was gone. Each township became a municipality with its own council. It was not until 1938 that all the municipalities were amalgamated to form The City of Greater Newcastle. There are a number of long roads that change their name as you drive from one of the old municipalities into the next.
If you only went to Sydney...you didn't experience Australia...you experienced Sydney. Down here in Victoria our housing prices are much lower, different states, different rates. But you really need to tour the entire country before opining about it. Oh and Pavlova...is meringue.
Lol they're a big spider that like to hide from the rain in cars and they pop out of nowhere all of a sudden and run around the car like crazy. It probably went up his pants and he was trying to get it out. They have big fangs lol.
I am reliably informed that when Pavlova came from Europe on her tour many years ago, her first concert stops were in Perth Western Australia. Then to the eastern states. By the time she got to NZ (later) a beautiful dish for Pavlova had been invented at her hotel in Perth by an admiring chef made from egg whites sugar and fruit and had been fully acclaimed long before she left for the eastern states and much later for NZ...sorry no second or third prizes.

If you have worked hard and put away enough money to buy an investment property then negative gearing helps you keep it. Despite what you might think, renting domestically is a real gamble. Some tenants are great and some will squeeze the life out of you and then do a moonlight fling. After expenses like landlord insurance (insanely expensive) there's not much profit in it apart from the capital gain on the property itself, which is taxed up sale anyway. I have one investment property which I worked hard for (two jobs). I view it this way. The investment property will finance part of my retirement...thereby negating the need for me to access the pension so that money can go to someone that needs it. I think there should be a cap on negative gearing once someone owns four properties but in many ways these mum and dad investors are keeping the stock of housing up (shielding taxpayers from the expense of state housing).
@@tripsadelica I'm not really against one investment property more how the system is abused when people own multiple investment properties if there was a cap at two properties I'd like to say we'd see some benefit but I simply don't know

Pavlova is is found throughout the world. The roads and streets are also this way throughout most of Europe and the U.K as well as Australia. Thai food is readily available in many countries. The car related words are the same in the U.K.

it is nice to hear a "foreigners" view Australia , i think Aussies see American's, Canadians, great Britian's as brothers in a shrinking civilised world (sadly)
Back in the day young fella we use to ride our horse with our left and fight with swords with our right, so you can imagine riding your horse down the road on right hand side of the street and dueling with someone on a horse coming the other way
True and then Napoleon changed it for Europeans while the Americans changed because they drove so many horse driven carts and the driver mounted on the left and passed traffic on the right. Funny how Americans are so perplexed at the differences of culture not understanding so much history and how they are often the odd ones out. Eg the Imperial system is only used in three countries today.
Sydney's roads are narrow and weird because of how Sydney was set up without any planning during the colonial era.
Yet they somehow managed to replicate that poor planning for the next 200 years. :)
I like Sydney. It has character. Other cities might be easier to get around, but they're all kind of soulless. Sydney has spunk. :D
