How Much Do U Need If I Want To Travel To Australia About One Week

Where should I travel in Australia if I have two weeks?

You probably already know that Australia is a massive country - about the size of the continental U.S. That said, 2 weeks is about the minimum required to get a good feel for the country.Without knowing your budget, I would recommend the following:Fly into Sydney, spending 3 days exploring both the city (museums, beaches, opera house, etc) and the Blue Mountains, which are absolutely stunning and an outdoor lover's playground-->hop a quick flight to Melbourne which is a very cosmopolitan city and reminds me of either Europe or San Francisco - depending on which street you walk down. Melbourne is called Australia's most 'livable' city, and whether you agree or not, it has a great art and cafe culture, plus amazing food and more beaches. Spend 2-3 days here. -->Fly to Alice Springs, the center of the Aussie outback and the jumping off point to see Uluru (Ayers Rock). Organize a tour ahead of time that will leave from Alice and take you out to see the rock, and possibly other geological wonders like Kings Canyon and the Olgas. Figure 3 days, including travel time back/forth to Alice. -->Fly to Cairns in tropical Queensland and gateway to the Great Barrier Reef. Normally, I would recommend heading north from there to Cape Tribulation, which is just about the most northeasterly point of the country. The reef is in much better shape up here which makes the snorkeling/diving that much more rewarding. If time is tight though, just organize a dive/snorkeling day trip from Cairns. Expect lots of people, depending on time of year. 2 days-->If you aren't counting international travel time, you will have a day or two left over after all this. I would recommend hiring a car and driving the eastern coast back down to Sydney. There are tons of cool towns to see on the way - Brisbane, Surfers Paradise, Byron Bay. You won't have time for Western Australia on this itinerary, but if you want to really get off the beaten path, I would spend a few days in Sydney, then fly direct to Perth and explore the West coast all the way up to Broome. Absolutely stunning landscapes!

How much do you need to earn to live in Melbourne, Australia?

Melbourne's not cheap. Of course you live anywhere in a range. Assuming a fairly 'typical' life in the inner city (within 8km of the CBD):Rent: $400 p/w = $20,800 p/y for a small two-bedroom in a reasonably interesting part of town (not too urban)Car costs: $5,000 p/y in depreciation, fuel, maintenance, insurance and registration for an average $20,000 car. Most people in Melbourne need a car. You'll get the odd parking fine too.Public transport: Commonly used (even if you do have a car) but expensive. Annual myki pass: $1500Health insurance: Negligible, you can use government healthFood: Groceries are expensive - budget $200 p/w or $10,400 p/y (assuming you don't cook everything at home, but do a few meals a week)Going out: Let's say you eat out two-three a week in a reasonably nice place (or more often in cheaper places) - that's $100 p/w or $5,000 p/y. (excluding going out for drinks. Everyone has different lifestyles)Holidays/flying home: leave $5,000 on the sideTotal: ~$48,000, which translates to a pre-tax salary of about $75,000 AUD with a bit of buffer, and that's saving nothing. (The above is simplified and assumes all costs are continuous throughout the year, and as I mentioned is typical of a non-frugal but not extreme 'typical' lifestyle)

Is 1500AUD enough for visiting Australia for 3 weeks?

Wow!Are you staying primarily on the west coast or the east coast?The west coast in the south west is beautiful. Lots of boutique wineries.Tasmania is right at the bottom of AU. Fantastic place to visit.The pace of life is a lot slower. People don’t drive like the demon possessed.Melbourne and Sydney are great for culture.Brisbane/Sunshine Coast/Gold Coast are where everyone comes to chill down.AUD 1500.00 for just three weeks? Are you staying in a five star hotel and being chauffeur driven everywhere?Seriously though, you could probably cut a little off that. Now depending on where in Australia you decide to visit then the Melbourne and Sydney are expensive to visit. Brisbane/Sunshine Coast/Gold Coast is a lot cheaper.Trivago is an app to give you some idea of hotel prices. (BTW, I don’t work for Trivago)Google traveling costs in AU. Airfares between the major cities are very cheap. However airfares between major cities and provincial are chronically expensive. If you had a longer time, most visitors hire a motorhome and drive up the east coast or down the east coast. That is the most cost effective way of seeing the place.The beaches are to die for. The rain-forests are breathtaking. Even the outback is eye watering.Usually Aussies are fairly laid back. All you have to say is “G’day mate” to start a conversation.Don’t tell everyone though. Otherwise they will all want to come here.Queensland, great one day, perfect the next!
