    1. You're supposed to have $5000 in your account entering the country (they rarely check this though). After that it really depends on yourself. If you're going to start working straight away probably not too much.

    2. In terms of what?
    WORK: the construction industry is slowing down slightly, nowhere near as bad as ireland. Other can advise you on other sectors (IT, etc)
    SOCIAL: Yep there's always something happening in Melbourne. There's tonnes of cool bars are a loads of great areas to go out. There's always festival and concerts on. If you're into Sport its the place to be also.

    3. Don't play the piano in a marching band, and don't eat yellow snow!
