ALL ABOUT AUSTRALIA

Australia: the best place in the world

What is the best place in the world to live? Australia, of course! With incredible landscapes, high quality of life and great cultural diversity, this country of continental proportions is a place like no other.

Australia is a successful, stable and prosperous nation, ranking 1st in the Human Development Report (HDI) by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) 2016. In addition, it is one of the largest economies in the world, with low unemployment rate, low inflation and high development. Without a doubt, a nation that is open to business and a country with great potential.

So you may think “those people must be smug.” But, you will be very wrong if you think about it this way. Australians are very friendly and welcoming. Being in Australia, you will check it out and you will feel at home. Almost 30% of the population is made up of foreigners and they really take this as something very positive. One more achievement for the “Ausies”.

And if you intend to study in Australia, you are on the right track. The country has 7 of the 100 best universities in the world and the Australian government invests a lot in education, and is always attentive in the institutions to guarantee the high quality of teaching and services to students.

You have noticed that no matter your style or life plan, in Australia you will find your place.

Are you packing your bags yet? To leave you with more desire, we list 15 reasons to make an exchange in Australia:

1. Hospitality:

If you think you have known a welcoming town, you will be impressed with the Australians. They are always cordial and have a great respect for diversity, welcoming, like no one else, foreigners and different cultures.

2. Natural Beauties:

From top to bottom, side to side, there is no way not to be impressed with such beauty. Paradise beaches, forests, mountains, deserts, and swamps. Wow it’s amazing! Above all this, there are 500 national parks and 19 wonders considered World Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.

3. Wild Life:

Australian fauna is unique and this is one of the reasons that attracts foreigners. More than 80% of the plants and animals are unique to the region. Kangaroos, koalas and platypuses are some of the animals that only one finds in Australia.

4. Climate

The climate is moderate for most of the year and the weather is pleasant. The difference is that in some places it is very hot (45 ° C) and others have ski resorts (-10 ° C).

5. Culture

Australia’s cultural richness is the result of the arrival of emigrants from all over the world, but the attractions are mainly of Aboriginal and European origin. It is possible to dive into Aboriginal culture with spare art galleries in Kakadu National Park or by visiting Aboriginal sacred stone Uluru, in Australian Outback.

6. Gastronomy

The number of emigrants enriched Australia’s gastronomy, with renowned cuisines and great chefs. But what they love the most are the famous outdoor barbecues, meat cakes, fresh produce markets and fish and seafood in the coastal cities.

7. Lazer

From nightclubs to picnics to beach barbecues, the options for fun in Australia are many. It is very normal to see families and friends in parks, beaches or having small parties at home.

8. Sports

Australians are very passionate about sports and physical activities. Many Surf, Rugby, Cricket, Golf and Soccer competitions take place throughout the year in the country. But, it is not only this, radical sports, in nature and water are also very practiced.

9. Security

Walk through the streets at any time, with your cell phone, notebook, camera or withdraw money at an ATM without worrying. Sound like a dream to you? In Australia this is reality. The crime rate is very low and the police are very efficient.

10. Health

The Australian public health system is called Medicare and is considered one of the best in the world. Access is for citizens or permanent residents. If this is not your condition, then you will need the OSHC – Mandatory Foreign Health Insurance.

11. Transportation

Public transport really works in Australia. The buses, trains, subways and the ferry (in Sydney) are modern, punctual, safe, clean and air-conditioned. In other words, no cold in the winter or hot in the summer.

12. Quality of Life

All the items here show that the quality of life in Australia is one of the best in the world. Even Australians are considered one of the happiest people with a life expectancy of more than 80 years.

13. Learn English

Everyone knows that the best way to learn English is by living the language. English is the official language of Australia and while there you will find excellent schools for quick courses or courses lasting up to a year.

14. Employment Opportunity

Most foreigners are used to working in the service industry (mainly babysitters) and agriculture. But if you want to work on your career, the Australian government publishes a list of specific vacancies, the Skilled Occupations List (SOL): https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Work/Work/Skills-assessment-and -assessing-authorities / skilled-occupations-lists #.

15. Study in excellent schools

For those who want to do a student exchange, there are more than 22 thousand high school, language, technical and university courses. And Australia is one of the few countries that allow students to have temporary jobs while studying, as long as they do not extend 40 hours per fortnight, during classes.

 

And when you arrive in Australia, everything we have told you will seem very little.

Work in australia

Australia is much more than just kangaroos and blond surfers. The country is at the center of events and has always had good relations with Asia, Europe, Africa and, recently, with the Americas. This shows the great potential for economic growth in the country, but it does not mean that it will always be open to foreigners, as it is lately. As the vacancies are filled, the difficulties will increase. So, seize this opportunity and come work in Australia.

Now, if you want to enjoy expanding your resume with an English, technical or postgraduate course, you can accommodate studies and work. Australia is one of the few countries that allow students to work during the courses, as long as they respect the number of hours defined by the government:

  • English or Technical Courses: 40 hours per fortnight during studies and unlimited hours during the course holidays.
  • Graduation or postgraduate studies without research (Baccalaureate, MBA, Professional Masters):  40 hours per fortnight during studies and unlimited hours during course holidays
  • Postgraduate with research (Masters and Doctorates):  Unlimited hours during the entire visa period.
