THE TRUTH ABOUT LIVING IN AUSTRALIA AS AN IMMIGRANT 

Welcome back fam, I hope this video helped clarifying something’s for you. Find Vera here youtube.com/@VerabellaOparah Watch my process as I move to Australia here ru-vid.com/group/PLzT-fbvmNghL7nL4js-zNNVFBlH-41U1A More exciting news coming soon💙 Love Deo

Looks like Verabella has limited knowledge of Australia, her response/comments are too general and doesn't reflect deep facts about Australia. In terms of climate, from the Northern tip of Australia to few latitudes before before Brisbane is a tropical (warm humid, like in Nigeria) around Brisbane to the Gold Coast is sub-tropical (a bit milder than Nigeria). The Climate of New South Wales (NSW) is diverse, Sydney is warm temperate that it warm to mild summers and mild winters, but the southern part of NSW is cool temperate and can get really cold like -5 degrees, with snows in alpine areas. Canberra, which is the capital territory is like the coldest or second-third coldest CITY in Australia. Other cold cities include Melbourne, Adelaide, and Hobart, which are cool temperate zone. Don't underestimate the cold in these cities, it may not snow, but can be close to what you'd experience in southern England low lands/plains. All Australian cities are clean and well organized than what I have seen in the UK. Roads are bigger and houses more spacious. Australia is generally more beautiful than the UK and infrastructures are way better, including health care system. Australian wildlife is exaggerated than it is. Yes, they have some of the most dangerous creatures, including snakes, jelly fishes and spiders. However, the diversity of big animals isn't much, the diversity is more in small animals and invertebrates. As you would expect, the probability of you encountering a snake in the neighborhood increases as you go north due to the warmer climate and decreases as you go south due to the colder climate. In NSW, Sydney center of business district (CBD, otherwise known as downtown in North America) and regional Sydney (~50-100 km to the city center) are the most expensive, outside these areas is way cheaper to buy and rent a accommodation. Be also aware that the east coast of Australia including Sydney usually experience natural disasters (bushfire, flooding, hail storm) than most other parts of Australia. Personally, I would choose Melbourne, Canberra, and Perth over Sydney. Also note, these cities are more affordable than Sydney. I believe Racism in Australia is more subtle, as Aboriginal people were and still the land owners for over the last 50,000 years before British invasion 230 years ago and everyone else is a visitor or a tenant in Australia. So if a non-Aboriginal tells you to go back to your country, you can as well tell them to go back to theirs. Will you save more in Australia than the UK, oh yes. If you earn 5k/month as a single, you will enjoy yourself in Australia and save more, especially if avoid living in major city centers. However, UK visa/immigration is more straightforward and quicker, while that of Australia can be complex and slower. Just so you know, the salary package is not offered by all employers (so check with your employer) and you can only use it for key bills like childcare (I think rent too in certain situation) but definitely not for groceries or couch or their likes.

Nice chat with you Deo. We should do this again soon ❤. Guys don’t have double minds. Australia is truly great.

You’ve always have a worth watching content deo💙 Coming to join you baby girl, will surely reach out when I’m ready.

I grew up on a farm east of Perth. When i was a boy we were constantly getting poisonous snakes (dugites) out of the house and taking them back into the bush. One of my mum’s cats had a hobby of bringing live snakes to the back door and dropping them on the back door step. Those ones me and my dad usually had to crawl under the house to catch. Thank you for this video. I have seen a lot of comments from Black Americans recently claiming that Black people arent welcome here in Australia - which is so untrue. Yes, we have racism but we are the most multicultural country in the world so we must be doing something right. Its nice to see someone correcting that perception of racism.

I just subscribed ☺️Thanks Nurse Deo for this video.

Beautiful nurse, this is an eye opener. Amazing video darling. Thanks for this Vera. I enjoyed this🥰

My captain, thank you for always bringing us great content

Nice video always 🔥 Thanks Deo

Great Deo, thanks for sharing.

Hi ladies. I really enjoyed your video of your experience living in Australia. Also Vera welcome to Newcastle. I also live in Newcastle. I also work with a lot Nigerians who've made Newcastle home. I'm glad to hear that your experience here has been mostly positive. I am someone who has mixed race including Aboriginal but I look very very white. When I have a shift with someone from another country I'm always up for a chat because I am genuinely interested in a person's background and reason for moving to Australia. I have to say I have the most laughs when I work with someone from Nigeria. There is a language barrier at times but it's fun for us to try work out what the other is trying to say. Welcome to Australia and thank you for your honesty and love for Australia. I look forward to seeing more diversity in Newcastle. We aren't like Sydney because we are much better then them. So I hope you and your family continue to live in Newcastle and love it as we do. Lol yes we do have snakes and spiders but like you said we mostly don't see them here in suburban Newcastle but they are there. But it's different in Queensland where they have a lot of pythons and tree snakes that can make their way into your home. Above all, always be aware they're there and mostly found near bush land.

You are very diplomatic with your comments and I love you for that 😍

Thank you very much for this Deo.

@nurse Deo , thanks for the good job you're doing.

Thanks alot for this video is an eye opener

Such an excellent video

AWESOME!!! I will move to Aussie when i complete my Mental health nursing :)

Na we Dey here ❤

Make can u make a video of UK vs us vs Australia vs Canada... If possible. The video is amazing

Thank you guys

I found your comments on spiders and snakes surprising. I live in Sydney on a suburban block and in my home have encountered poisonous spiders and snakes. I have been bitten by a redback spider in my yard, had a funnel web spider in my loungeroom which tried to bite me, and have seen numerous red belly black snakes which are poisonous. You always need to be aware and take precautions such as keeping yard clean and no long grass. My grass is mowed weekly to reduce risk.

Thank you Nurse Deo for bringing this to us... Pls I want to find out if band 2 clinical support worker gets sponsorship for tier 2 visa...pls help me find out since you're an NHS staff

Nice information, I am now considering leaving the UK for Australia ☺️

Ladies, Melbourne can get very hot in summer, 42º-45º some days. It's not common but we've had many days over 40º the last few summers.

Medicare levy is included in your income tax, similar to the UK. You don't notice it.

Hi, ladies. I enjoyed your video. Please could Verabella send me a direct link to her channel?

Welcome to Newcastle from Toronto down the road (not Canada) 😉😃

Why does everyone in NSW or Queensland assume it is always cold in Melbourne. We can have 3 or 4 days in a row of high 30s and low 40s. The only thing is that will be followed by a few days in low or mid 20s before it again climbs up to the high 30s. Yes it is colder on average than NSW in Winter.

I have lived in regional Australia for 56 years, I have seen only 3 snakes (out in the bush) and none ever in the house - and snakes never attack you unless you threaten them.

Thanks For the information and i love your response to the question asked. As a teacher migrating to Australia from Nigeria through studies (special education)is it a versatile course that can quickly earn someone a PR? thanks

God bless you for this timely and relevant information. What about a Medical Doctor moving from UK to Australia?

💙💙💙💙💯

Hello am new here dear ❤️🥰

Also, your skin is gorgeous captain 😍🥰

Thank God I'm not missing this 🤗🤗

My Irish mother was told to go back to Ireland. That was in 1959. The Irish were mocked and parodied in the media and jokes right up to the 1990s. Australia was very racist, especially in the regional cities. Racism isn't as open anymore thank goodness. If you go to some outback communities it is the Asian community that is targeted. Racism isn't just against people of colour but also ethnic groups.

Minimum wage is around $42,000 a year. Average for people working full-time is around 90k.

The eastern brown snake is a bit of a problem in Australia and is responsible for the vast majority of snake deaths given it is a common snake and also has a deadly venom. However, I think on average only 1 or 2 people die a year so it is not that common to be killed by a snake. A funny fact you can share with people who are worried is that Cows and Horses kill more people every year than snakes do here and I don't think we have had a spider fatality for more than a decade. So if you are going to be afraid, be careful of the cows! Kangaroos and bees also have killed more people than snakes in the last few decades. A snake is more afraid of you than a bee is. Most snake bites have occurred when the person didn't see the snake and surprised it. If you live in an area that is prone to having snakes, just keep the grass cut and make sure the garden isn't too densely packed so if a snake happens to be passing through, you can see it. They sometimes go looking for mice, if they don't find any they move on.

thanks for all you do nurse deo. i thought they said australia is very cold

This video pretty much shows that there ain’t much difference between the UK and Australia, pretty much similar system. Guys Australia is just not the new paradise. Every country has its pros and cons. Wherever you’re in the western world, simply look for opportunities around you and make the best of it

Nurse Deo, can you network for us on how to get care giver jobs with no healthcare experience. I'm prepared to do training once in Australia

Actually guys the name 'Toronto' is from UK and NOT from Canada - which itself borrowed it from UK. Toronto is a village in County Durham, England. Just google it !

Sorry… the weather in Melbourne can definitely get hot …. We’ve experienced 45 degrees at times…. So it can Get Hot.

Lets do this again i live in aus for 15yrs

Good pm sis pls ao much its caf exam did I need to migrate to new zeal b4 it can be done, ao pls do video on how to get work and visa processing thankd

Hi Deo my name is joy am a nurse in Nigeria

What is the work life balance in au, how many weeks holiday does a person get in a year

I hear you have to have a degree to practice nursing in Australia Is this true? Some o of us who have a diploma we don't get a chance...

Deyo..why are you glowing like that?! Your light is too bright..heeei!

Is it possible to change a visit visa to a work permit over there?

Waiting for you to get your 186 so as to show me way. Thank you.

Lots of companies also pay per month.

@Nurse deo, if someone gets a PR as a nurse, will it be easy to get family members into Australia like Canada?

Can you do USA vs Australia please. Both good and bad

i saw dangerous snakes and spiders. I was in the regional locations though.

Hello nrs Deo pls relocating to Australia from the U. K any medical test to be done, how much ?

I pay 68 pounds a day for child care here in the UK

Are there jobs with visa sponsorship for healthcare assistant in Australia

How easy it is to get African foods in Australia

Are there Nigerian community in Brisbane?

Not even a new nurse just out of school in US will have to share.

Talk about visa 186. Is there age limit.

I have taken front seat

My wife

Adelaide is a much more livable city.

If i want to get visa and work as a nurse in AU, can my fiancee come with me and get visa as a family member?

I don answer present....my tax no be here....please ask about tax

She did not answer the question on saving money properly. Typical. Sigh.

Hi Doe I think you are interviewing wrong people about Australia.

Can a UK-trained nurse associate practice in Australia?

I am looking for sponsor from Australia any one there?

I eat snakes, unfortunately I haven't found any here in UK 😂😂😂😂

When you spoke of "black people" you were really talking about Africans, ignoring Aboriginals and Melanesians. But numbers are rising now Australia has more migrants from Somalia, Kenya, Uganda, Zimbabwe and South Africa.

Covert racism

AUSTRALIANS ARE ALL IMMIGRANTS UNLESS YOUR ABORIGINAL 😂😘

Couldn’t you have silenced the child in the background? For such an important discussion… why would you guys let a child interfere?? Let’s try to be more professional please 😊🙏

Is clapping your hands whilst talking a cultural thing ? To be honest it drives me crazy.
