1. 15c - 18c is average for the summer here, in the winter it sits around 0, goes to around -3 often at night and during the day can goes as high as 4. Depending when you’re arriving Mountian Warehouse is closing down you’ll get yourself a decent warm cheap rain jacket and a few hoodies / quarter zips

2. Basketball is popular here, can’t help with AFL but I’m sure someone else can. There’s an app called “ find my player” get yourself on that.

3. If you move into a furnished accommodation 95% chance it will be a queen size bed so you’re feet are definitely hanging out the bottom of it. I’m 6,2 and struggle. Finding accommodation might be an issue as you can see from this subreddit it’s very competitive.

4. Food is good here, it’s a city that loves to eat and drink. The latest thing is Thai. Coffee is also very popular here with independent shops. Highly recommend Blackpine in the west end and Us V them in the east end, there’s loads of shops in the south side as well.

5. You’ll get used to it, similar to what others have said I’d recommend watching things like Limmy on twitch

6. NGL public transport is shit. We have a subway that doesn’t cover most of the city, the trains are expensive and unreliable

Aw the best mate
