Title: Canadian moved to Belgium and thinking about moving to Australia in a few years
Post by: DebbySoufflage on May 05, 2019, 02:19:28 PM
Originally from Montréal.
Moved to Belgium few years ago.
Studying here.
Thinking about moving to Australia in a couple years from now.
The Aussie life really attracts me.
The people, the country, the culture.
Would love to live in Brisbane.

:-)

Australia is a great place to live. I traveled a fair bit in the 90s and there really was no question about where we would return too....but then again maybe I am a bit biased LOL

Hope you make it

Brisbane may be a bit warm after Belgium and Montreal, so maybe you could consider Melbourne, it's always listed at the top of the world's most liveable cities!

I'm Canadian but live In Victoria BC so a bit warmer then Montreal
In the winter.  I spent 4 months in Australia on a working holiday visa
In 2012-2013 pre transition.  Generally Australian are a lot like Canadians
And culturally both countries have similarities. Climate wise I was working
In a town called Byron bay about an hours or so south of Brisbane.
I was there for the summer and traveled threw out Australia while I was there
Where Brisbane is it's around 25-28C average then 15c or so in the winter months
I also visited Melbourne it's a fairly big city but like a major Canadian city like
Toronto or Vancouver.  Sydney is similar to Vancouver there's wa fairly large Chinese
Population when Hong Kong went back to China a fair number of people resettled in both those city's.  Then Tasmania would be somewhat on par with Vancouver island climate wise. Hobart is a lot like Victoria.  Somewhat cured my home sickness while I was away.  Farther north like Carins
Is far more humid.  Adelaide and south Australia I found similar to the okanogan in the summer months.  Alice springs was way to hot for me 55c when I was there and Darwin was a little better but the heat and humidity I found intense. Over all it's a commonwealth country so like Canada there's a lot of shared values and but I did find something a little more relaxed compared to Canada or the USA
