Thread 213526689

I just moved to Australia a few days ago.

My first impressions:
Everything is clean, nice, and new (at least where I am).
Everyone drives recent model cars.
People seem happy and friendly.
It's sweltering hot considering it's the middle of winter.
The housing situation is horrendous.
The city is basically a network of malls with chain stores connected by trains and motorways, and a CBD where people wageslave.

Thanks for reading my blog.

where are you from?

>>213526689 (OP)
Australia is a paradise and more people (especially in India and China) should know about it. Thanks OP for spreading awareness about the heaven down under.

>>213526689 (OP)
Yes, it's nice here, mostly, now please go home.

Brisbane, right? Because 9C isn't sweltering, no matter what cold shithole you're from.

that's only people who are wealthy enough to drive to the city.
the rest of us cattle can't do that.

New cars are everywhere, they're just not impressive. It's just soulless econoboxes like Hyundai, Kia and BYD. The major cities are the only place you really see brand new luxury cars however, nobody in a regional city is going to be getting around in a top spec Mercedes S Class or Maybach.

>>213526976
I thought 90% of australians live in cities.

>>213526689 (OP)
SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR

>>213527032
90% live within about 2 hours of major cities, if that's what you mean. There are smaller cities spread around as well and they usually have about 100k or so people in them, which is not much.

>>213526689 (OP)
I've lived here all my life.
I see trash and graffiti everywhere, I have a car from 1996, every 3rd person I know is clinically depressed or has a family member that just killed themselves and it's going to be 5 celsius tonight.
But yeah the housing is pretty bad and I don't really understand what a city is aside from a cluster of shops.

>>213527232
Adelaide? That sounds like my experience of living there for 5 years.

>>213527232
the non-Sydney experience

>>213527232
Pretty much, id move countries if I wasn't autistic and dependent on welfare. Also we have a very anti-social culture here so it's hard to meet anyone.

>>213527415
Other countries are worse, we actually have things really good here. People don't realize that until they finally leave for a while. Chances are you also live in kind of a shitty city, you can find really good people in Adelaide, Melbourne and Brisbane. I found that Sydney and Perth have the most anti-social/rude people.

t. have lived overseas and in most states here

>>213527470
I live a few hours from Adelaide and it's all old people and Indians here so it's legit impossible to meet anyone my age.

>>213527978
>live a few hours from Adelaide
Whereabouts? If Port Lincoln or Port Augusta, I am truly sorry for you and hope you can move away some day.

>>213527024
That's a good point. I currently live in area of chinks and they tend to not buy new econoboxes. Although I have been in areas where that happens.

>>213527032
When I say to the city, I mean the CBD where all of the offices are.
A lot of us live in Sydney, but we are all in the suburbs since this place is an urban sprawl hellhole where it takes you 1.5hrs to commute by public transport and 2 hours by car.

>>213528070
>Port Lincoln
Looks like a nice town although isolated

>>213526689 (OP)
do not redeem the visa saar

>>213528202
It's nice, but isolated. Port Augusta is a proper shithole, I consider it to be even worse than Murrary Bridge.

>>213527978
>I live a few hours from Adelaide and it's all old people and Indians
This is what I see everytime I go to visit my grandma in the country. She lives in Clare and every single town on the way there is a pub with a blonde girl server, old guy who owns the place and a dozen Indians cooking in the back. How the fuck did they even get there?

>>213526689 (OP)
Me too. Except I moved few months ago.

Welcome, now you need to grapple with these two facts:
>You will never be accepted as a true Australian. A piece of paper means nothing. You don't have the accent, the worldview, the childhood memories and the soul of the nation
>Your home country, its culture, language and people are not as good as Australia's, so you must now discuss your home country with a sense of shame and embarrassment
No, eating a democracy sausage and saying 'geeday mate' will not instill you with ANZAC values and the understanding that Australians have unparalleled greatness in world history

how to move?

>>213530198
what is the Australian worldview?

>>213530322
>True egalitarianism (no country in the world, including France has this other than Australia)
>she'll be rightism
>Viewing everything from the perspective of the underdog

>>213530198

>underdog
Australia is a nation of coddled man children who have never learned what suffering and hardship really is. I mean, how could they when even the poorest Australians are in the wealthiest 10 percent? If you don't have money, you can go to Centrelink. If you work at a servo, you can afford to eat almost anything your heart desires. If you want to own land, all you have to do is apply yourself a bit in school and you can save up enough money relatively easily. Meanwhile, in the developing world no such privileges exist. In the developing world, food is actually valuable. Surviving is non-trivial.

>I'm from New Zealand, Gaz.
Acting like that's not shameful and embarrassing
Don't make me post the meme

>>213530254
our current policy is this: Just Be Indian. You're in luck

>>213530782
I am already one of you.
>Don't make me post the meme
Post it. I'm fully aware of what I am.

It sucks how Indian "students" who are going to drive down wages are let through without a care but when I want to get my wife over there on a partner visa it's a 2 year wait and a ton of scrutiny. What the fuck? Australia is run by clowns.

Oh and not mention a $10,000 application fee. How about import fewer coolies and more wives of Australian citizens

>>213530198
I dont want to be Australian.

Fuck off we're full

>>213530420
