I think maybe the difference is that in Aussie if you run into trouble, you have a stable govt/country to supply help in the form of hellicopters, rescue people, suport etc.

But in the middle east, the closest thing you’ll get is some buttwipe who’ll blow you up cos you look like an enemy

Is it that sandy over there? I was quite surprised when my Mum’s friend was telling me about how nice Perth is. In my head, it was like: middle of nowhere + desert + close to Indonesia/Africa thus lots of illegal immigrants, making it sound not very appealling at all. Apparently, it is fairly nice though. I think the cost of living there is still quite high though, due to how far goods need to be transported to get there – the bad part of middle of nowhere.

Yes, Perth is close to AFRICA………. 😆
I’m sure there are more illegal immigrants residing in other capital cities due to the fact that there are more visa over stayers than there are boat people.
Think of Perth as a younger version of Bris-Vegas, nice beaches, easy going people minus the crowds and excessive concrete jungle skyline. The lifestyle there is good and yes the cost of living is higher but the average wage is higher too so it all evens out.
Anyway with the Middle-East, it depends where you go. If you visit the major cities then its not sandy but get on the beaten track to rural areas then its dusty just like any other place around the world.

Dude. Sif not go to places just to go on roller coasters!

Roller coasters are for kids, I ride fighter jets 🙂

I meant closer than Brisbane. Boats etc would head for there.

It sounds pretty nice. Might add it to my list of cities that would be interesting to live and work in.

Aaah, true that. Not quite all of us have that money though.
