Yeah it seems expensive but we earn SO much more than other countries, including the US. Brissy is an awesome city. Relaxed, clean with almost pristine weather. I regularly visit all of these mentioned places (except Chanel etc [only tourists would shop there]) and they are as good as they look on screen. Bring on the 2032 Olympics so we can showcase our awesomeness to the rest of the world 👍🏻😃
More beaches (small waves) on the Peninsula or eastern Bayside at Manly and Wynnum. You can get to Stradbroke Island, via fast catamaran or vehicular ferry and experience beautiful surf beaches or the Gold or Sunshine Coasts beaches are only 1 hours drive away. Many Brisbaneites, drive to the beaches on weekends. On the way to the Gold Coast you have amusement parks: Movie World, Dreamworld and a waterpark. On your way to the Sunshine Coast you can visit Steve Irwin's Australia Zoo. Also we have a planetarium in Brisbane - just a few things to mention
Brisbane is a cool place to live in also, as you have the lovely surrounding suburbs, which have their own little villages, water views of the river, plenty of parkland, take the dogs to for a walk also haha, getting so trendy but who doesn't like things to do, Brisbane has great coffee like Sydney and Melbourne, I must admit also just outer suburbs are gorgeous on grassy hills, yes Brisbane has become a cosmopolitan City. Hope you visit one day.
I have lived all over the world and now live in inner city Brisbane , I love living here. An easy city to live in and you have beautiful beaches one and a half hours away
Also coming soon Queens warf project $3.6 billion new casino with a ton of shops ,50 restaurants ,skydeck , new parks and another bridge to connect to south bank,treasurey casino building will turn into high end shops.
Gents high tea is generally served around 3:30 / 4pm. It is a tradition where tea, cake, club sandwiches, various desserts are served, you can have coffee too. Generally served in 5 star hotels. Very much an English tradition and a fine one at that....
I'm an American , and wondered how do you make a cucumber sandwich. ???? I've grown an awful lot of cucumbers in my garden thus year and need to find a new outlet for them . the neighbors are sick of them , and hate to throw them away .
My fav thing to do here in Brissie is a motorbike ride up Mount Cootha, have lunch in the villiage, do a lil shopping at the spice shop there but riding back down the winding mountain
Cost of living is high in Australia but so are wages and living standards.. The AUD is also worth a bit less than the USD which makes it seem more expensive but the average wage in Australia is 100k PA.. Brisbane is no different than other major cities but its actually much cheaper to live in Brisbane than Melbourne or Sydney due to house prices being considerably less. I may be bias but Brisbane is boss! :)
@@jimr4354 I don't earn that either and there are a few different averages reported on different sites but most say average is between 80-100k..I think 90k would be accurate and it may be gross average which sounds about right to me.
My favourite thing to do in Brisbane used to be JetSki up and down the Brisbane river or what we call the brown snake. We have like very minimal water traffic so you basically get the whole place to yourself.
You could afford all these things. A lot are free. Also brisbane is in the state of Queensland which is one of the only states where you can still hold a koala. So going to lone pine for a cuddle and photo is absolutely worth it.
If your going to do a bridge climb you can climb Sydney Harbour Bridge too. Brisbane has a unique feel though. High Tea is an English thing it’s afternoon tea.
And that is only the city proper. Many of the outer suburbs are wonderful to explore and then there is the Sunshine Coast or Gold Coast areas which are only 1 to Queensland 1/2 has away from paradises
Hey guys awesome vid, I live in Brisbane Queensland Australia 🇦🇺. I’m in a shire near Redland Bay and the highway is 10 mins from my house to go to either the city, Gold Coast or the Sunshine Coast. We catch the river city cat into Southbank to go for lunch or visit the museum occasionally. ❤️🇦🇺 great video you viewed.
They have done a great job of highlighting what a lovely city this is to live in. Not expensive. But we get better pay than USA. Minimum wage $20/hr, health care, no tipping. And our dollar takes a hit heading your way. Much better for USA to travel here.
Brisbane is also the stepping off point to Stradbroke (Straddie) Island which is a favourite weekend getaway for the locals. The Gold Coast and all its theme parks and attractions is also a short drive south of Brisbane.
Brisbane is much cheaper then Sydney and Melbourne re buying houses/apartments Weather and relaxed lifestyle is also much better in my opinion. Brisbane / Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast will be hosting the 2032 Summer Olympics
In 11 years you can enjoy the Brisbane 2032 Olympic Games and in 7 years the world will see the Brisbane 2032 handover at the LA Olympics closing ceremony which will probably the first time most of the world will know Brisbane exists.
G'day guys. I'm a Brisbane person. If you come here please go to the Eagle St Pier. The seafood is all local and delicious. There is way more to do and see. They only showed stuffy places. There's markets and cheaper places to see. Hope we see you in the near future. Come and enjoy the Aussie way of living. Take care and be safe 🤗🤗 Oh and the sand at Southbank beach is from the Gold Coast beaches! So yes it's real Aussie beach sand lol 👍your money is worth more over here so you will have more to play with!!
Cost is living is more expensive but, we get many government benefits: free health care, government child support, AUS STUDY where the government gives you an allowance if you are involved in tertiary study etc. It means we don't have to factor those kinds of things into our budget. Also, Australians tend to get more leave than other countries, we have 20 paid vacation days and 10 paid public holidays (on average) per year, we have paid sick and carers leave and we are the only country in the world with long service leave. If you work at a company for X number of years, you get to accumulate more paid holidays and can take them whenever. More things we don't have to factor into our budgets.
The majority of this stuff is free, and it's a very very cheap city compared to Sydney and Melbourne. I reccomend if you are in Brisbane to also drive an hour south to the Gold Coast. They have lots of theme parks there, and the beaches are some of the best in the world.
I live in Brisbane and it's far cheaper than Sydney and Melbourne. Also our high cost of living is balanced by our high wages. Minimum adult wages is now around $20 AUD an hour.
@@TheCommodity I think it would REALLY suck to live in the States actually. We don't know how lucky we are. Wouldn't go there for all the money in the world! Too many crazies with guns and a mindset that puts money before love and health.
live in north brisbane. threres lots of beach and bush destinations this way. redcliffe is a must visit. as this area is suburbs away from the city rents are lower.
This just makes me want to go up to brissie …but the borders closed to us Victorians atm 🤮😭 fucking covid Also I’ve done about 25/6 of these High tea …afternoon tea scones (American version of biscuits) jam cream and tea and coffee sandwiches small desserts
Australia has almost 12,000 beaches along its 60,000-kilometre (37,282-mile) coastline. If you visited one per day, it would take more than 32 years The sand would be local
As a Brisbanite, I would just like to clarify that the 'bane' section isn't actually pronounced as bane. Think of how the Kiwis say bin, and thats pretty close.
Brisbane Is one few capital cities where normal people can still afford to buy a house, it's not "Cheap" but you don't need to be a millionaire to buy a house either. Because you always ask for perspective, I live ~11km east of the CBD and I'm told my house is worth ~AU$450,000 (Iv'e been here a while so don't know for sure), it's a modest house on a small lot of land but has 3 bedrooms and a single car garage so not poverty living either. it takes less than an hour by public transport to the CBD. There is no way to be this close to the CBD of Sydney or Melbourne for that sort of house price.
Brisbane is where I work. It's expensive to rent or buy there but the Outer suburban areas aren't too bad. Our minimum wage laws are very different to America. In my last carpentery job before I got injured I was on $1400 most weeks after tax.companies are held more accountable for their workers rights and awards.we have struggled with my partner s income due to COVID as she is self employed
Bris bun, right on, been here for about 20 + years, lone pine is very good, especially if you have kids, definitely not a zoo. As for ' high tea ', it is an English term meaning, a thing they do in the early afternoon involving drinking tea accompanied by, ( scones, you will have to google that for yourselves ) with jam, ( jelly ), & cream & maybe a weird little snack like sandwiches with their crusts cut off. I wouldn't call it a meal, it's just a posh thing to do, ordinary Australians have a similar custom we do at home, just called, ( afternoon tea ),but it quite often still involves tea & scones & held at the same time. South bank which you featured briefly is pretty good as you can get there from pretty much anywhere & is one of the few spots in the city you can just sit down on the grass in the shade & have a picnic, or just sit in the shade & watch life wander by. When the out door markets were on all over the city, they were also very popular, Southbank had a big one too.
Hey guys I live and work in Brisbane, pure working class earn $26 per hour, pay $1200 per month rent for a small 3 br house. Gas price bounces between $5:40 and $6:80 a gallon on a 3 week cycle. A case of beer or a bottle of jack Daniels will cost you $50. Costs $1200 a year to register a V8 . A Big Mac costs $10. Health care is free it’s included in your income tax, Ambulance service is the same.
🤗High Tea is a fancy name 🫶for a morning tea 💕with lots of sandwiches and cakes.🥰Generally a posh way 🤗of doing a Cuppa Tea and Scones.👍Very British.💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
(Red buzzer /got talent) Oh my god, BAD representation of Brisbane, how do I go to the man made beach if I don't want to go to south bank or the wheel south bank is from GOMA all the way to the maritime museum (NOT mention). Must places are with in the city area apart from DFO(which is ALSO out Jindalee) and Mt Cooth ah lookout, city botanic gardens 17 hect nothing over the Brisbane botanic gardens at the foot of Mt cooth ah - when it ALSO has the Planetarium, oh! 56 hect's Brisbane is not just about withIN the city itself, barely scratching the surface with the look out and Shorncliffe pier, venture out with the railway museum in Ipswich & tram museum in ferny grove, Straddie & Moreton islands - - day trip to Steve Irwin's zoo or Gold coast throw a spanner in the works about the public crap transport here...
Brisbane will be hosting the 2032 Summer Olympic Games if you want to plan a visit. The sand on "Streets Beach" is local and is sourced just off the coast of Brisbane.
It’s actually a pretty affordable city. Average monthly salary is approx $4800 per person, with the average monthly expenses being approx $1800 before rent. Rent can vary depending the type of place and location but you can pretty much find a very nice place for $4-500 per week. Obviously on top of that, you’re not in America so healthcare is free, the public education system is free and high quality, you get 18 weeks parental leave (mother or father) when you have a new born, 10 days paid sick days per year, 4 weeks paid holidays per year, plus in addition to your salary an additional 9% of what you earn each year is is paid towards your retirement fund (superannuation)
@@kazacokova Yes, it is our taxes....but he was comparing to the US, who pay about the same each year in income tax and that doesn't include healthcare. Many receive some healthcare benefits through employer (who aren't required to pay superannuation), but those that don't have to pay MASSIVE costs for everyday healthcare. Average cost of giving birth for example is over 10k.
"High tea" is a tradition imported from the UK vaguely related to afternoon tea, but I wouldn't say it's particularly common here in Australia. To simplify it, it's a bit like "afternoon tea on steroids". Rather than your traditional afternoon tea in the late afternoon on lounge chairs with tea, coffee and a few small sandwiches and cakes, high tea is taken at a dining table and with a greater range of food. Traditionally it used to be "afternoon tea for rich people", though it became more common in the working class after the industrial revolution.
I’m 48 and all my fathers family were born in Brisbane and I was born in Brisbane and I’ve never heard of high tea before until I saw this video so I’m guessing it’s some kind of posh rich person thing 🤔
Brisbane is to Australia what Dallas is to the US. Everyone finds reasons to say why it is the country cousin but everyone wants to move there. I am a Brisbanite born and bred but lived in Dallas (Frisco) for seven years. It is one of the cheaper cities to live and visit in Australia. Also Brisbane is the gateway to the two of the most iconic beach areas in Australia, the Gold Coast an hour to the south, and the Sunshine Coast about the same to the north. Brisbane has a strong working class heritage so it is a very welcoming city and Brisbanites typically despise the pretention of the big southern cities of Sydney and Melbourne.
Please don't let the word get out about the heaven on earth that is the Sunshine coast !!!! Don't let it get spoiled by huge crowds and raving teens and drunks like some other places !!!
By the way was born and raised in southeast Texas myself in the backwoods if the Brazos river . my son married an Australian girl and they had a son and my wife and I would give anything to emigrate and be with them !!!!! Oh , the adventures we'd have !!
@@howardwayne3974 Asides from schoolies, public holidays, ordinary school holidays, long weekends, ordinary weekends, lol. I live in Brisbane, last time I went to Noosa Heads, with some friends, it took me longer to find a parking spot when I got there than to get there, we ended up parking in the national park car park, I think it is, & hiked over the mountain to Sunshine Beach. On the way back, a group of really nice, but pretty drunk people, offered us cold beers & some potpourri air freshener bags, really nice kids, it made me proud to be an Australian.
I have lived in Paris, Melbourne, Buenos Aires and Ho Chi Minh and brissy is honestly my favourite

You are correct we are a lovely cool city. Much more laid back than Sydney or Melbourne. We're just different because we are more tropical

It is our taxes paying for it all. Hope you're working and contribute too.
@@kazacokova Yes, it is our taxes....but he was comparing to the US, who pay about the same each year in income tax and that doesn't include healthcare. Many receive some healthcare benefits through employer (who aren't required to pay superannuation), but those that don't have to pay MASSIVE costs for everyday healthcare. Average cost of giving birth for example is over 10k.
@@kazacokova people in America pay taxes too but they don't get free healthcare.
"High tea" is a tradition imported from the UK vaguely related to afternoon tea, but I wouldn't say it's particularly common here in Australia. To simplify it, it's a bit like "afternoon tea on steroids". Rather than your traditional afternoon tea in the late afternoon on lounge chairs with tea, coffee and a few small sandwiches and cakes, high tea is taken at a dining table and with a greater range of food. Traditionally it used to be "afternoon tea for rich people", though it became more common in the working class after the industrial revolution.
It is becoming more popular in Australia over the last few years at special hotels with views.
It’s also ridiculously expensive.
I’m 48 and all my fathers family were born in Brisbane and I was born in Brisbane and I’ve never heard of high tea before until I saw this video so I’m guessing it’s some kind of posh rich person thing 🤔
@@procrasin1 They serve tea with cakes and sandwiches and charge you $50 per person or some other ridiculous price
🤮🤮🤮
People in Brisbane are more friendly than in the other capital cities. As well we have not been ravaged by COVID-19 unlike other states.
Yay I live in Brisbane :) It is such an amazing city!
Brisbane is to Australia what Dallas is to the US. Everyone finds reasons to say why it is the country cousin but everyone wants to move there. I am a Brisbanite born and bred but lived in Dallas (Frisco) for seven years. It is one of the cheaper cities to live and visit in Australia. Also Brisbane is the gateway to the two of the most iconic beach areas in Australia, the Gold Coast an hour to the south, and the Sunshine Coast about the same to the north. Brisbane has a strong working class heritage so it is a very welcoming city and Brisbanites typically despise the pretention of the big southern cities of Sydney and Melbourne.
Oh wow, you’ve lived both worlds. Awesome! Thanks for the feedback!
Please don't let the word get out about the heaven on earth that is the Sunshine coast !!!! Don't let it get spoiled by huge crowds and raving teens and drunks like some other places !!!
By the way was born and raised in southeast Texas myself in the backwoods if the Brazos river . my son married an Australian girl and they had a son and my wife and I would give anything to emigrate and be with them !!!!! Oh , the adventures we'd have !!
Ah then there is Stradbroke and Moreton Islands just a ferry ride across Moreton Bay.
@@howardwayne3974 Asides from schoolies, public holidays, ordinary school holidays, long weekends, ordinary weekends, lol. I live in Brisbane, last time I went to Noosa Heads, with some friends, it took me longer to find a parking spot when I got there than to get there, we ended up parking in the national park car park, I think it is, & hiked over the mountain to Sunshine Beach. On the way back, a group of really nice, but pretty drunk people, offered us cold beers & some potpourri air freshener bags, really nice kids, it made me proud to be an Australian.
That’s mah city! Love it 👍🏼👌🏼🤟🏼
Most of us cannot afford the high end goods either. 😁😁
