Is paying for Flatmates.com.au worth it?

I’m looking for a cheap ($150 inc bills and internet) unfurnished double room in the new Translink zone 1. I’ve tried gumtree, but I had to take my number off the listing because some guys treated it like a sex hotline rather than a real estate listing. The trouble with flatmates.com.au is that properties aren’t listed in advance, so I have to wait 14 days to message if they’re labelled early bird. $25 for 10 days seems like a rip off to me, but I want to move at the end of June 🙁 submitted by /u/Cyrridven [link] [comments]

Visiting Brisbane

I am visiting Brisbane in August from the US and am looking for recommendations for things to do or see while I’m there. I love outdoor activities and nature but also enjoy a good bar scene. Mostly I want to see all Brisbane has to offer. Any tips? submitted by /u/manbearpig119 [link] [comments]

Brisbane 'Themed Street' areas eg. Yeronga's 'O' and Annerley 'Royal' street names

Hey r/Brisbane Has anyone else noticed that some suburbs have themed street names and perhaps knows why? Two examples I can think of are Yeronga- Orlando, Ostavo, Oriel, Otavi, Orient, Ormuz, Osterley, Ormonde etc etc. and also Annerley- Earl, Baron, Knight, Prince, King, Emperor, etc. I know about the CBD being Kings/Queens crossways but I thought it was interesting you can see it in the suburbs too. Anywhere else in Brisbane you can see this? submitted by /u/spatchi14 [link] [comments]
