Hey Brisbaniacs, I will spend three months during my PhD for an internship at the QUT and need some advices for the stay: Accommodation I would like to start my search from home (Germany) to have already an accommodation when arriving. Which websites can you recommend to find a nice place and don’t be scammed? I’ve heard that in Australia the rent is payed weekly instead of monthly, is that correct? How much time do I have to take in account before arriving? How much money do I have to take in account for rent and living in Brisbane in general? Can you recommend a district which is nice, cheap and close to the QUT? What’s the best way to move from the accommodation to the QUT (bike, tram,…)? Life in Brisbane During my stay, I want to get to know the city and the people and don’t just hang
