I watched this video thousands of times before coming to Brisbane. Now after half a year living here I have been to all the places mentioned in the video & can recognise all the scenes. I am so glad I made this journey here. Brisbane is the best city ever. :)

[@Expedia]

Ya Zhang Thank you so much for your support by watching! We're so happy that you're loving Brisbane!

[@alirahimli3423]

is it easy to move to Australia and live there forever?

[@AnkleSnapper72]

+Ya Zhang I agree, I love living in Brisbane. I have been here 10 years now, and I call it my hometown.

[@Henry-fv3bc]

Once the pandemic is over, hopefully the travel industry will rebound like never before.

[@australiamyway]

@@cristianrocha11 make sure you do your investigation into coming here. It is like a big country town

[@NostalgiaMan]

I have lived in Brisbane twice. I went to the University of Queensland and lived in St. Lucia (Suburb of Brisbane). I am from Indianapolis and I would rather be in Brisbane anytime. I am going to retire there one day and I have every plan to move there with my family and leave the US.

[@foruonly7283]

and here i thought US was best country in the World..lol

[@aadbam131]

Can I ask why ? I'm from Brisbane

[@foruonly7283]

why..no reason..its kind of mindset of people..and Freeways of US ..i like that in particular..lol

[@junelpadigos5790]

Wutaii1 Nostalgia Indianapolis is lovely. It’s like a city with a small town vibe.

[@Someonesaidthis]

I honestly don't blame you, US has been terribly over developed.. Australia is a gem with how rural it is..

Brisbane is the most popular Australian city

[@AnkleSnapper72]

My hometown. A beautiful place to live with the river, Southbank, walking gardens, 4 zoo's/wildlife sanctuaries, sporting options and the Gold Coast with it's 5 theme parks only an hour away. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

I Watched This 100 Times Before Going To Brisbane On The 31st Of January 2014.

[@dontknow1684]

I am coming to Australia, but which id better melborne or brisbane and why??

[@SpaceCommand]

I will admit, I do miss Brissie. I went to Aspley State High and lived in Zillmere & Aspley from 2001-2003 and loved every minute of it. People were friendly, and my first Christmas Eve was spent with Family at Southbank Beach. Everyone was happy and singing & strangers were having good ole conversations with eachother like they were long lost mates. It's a beautiful city & being a Proud Kiwi, I don't normally give the Aussies complements LOL, but it's that vibe, the friendly people, the lifestyle that I will never forget. 👍👍

[@AussieGunzel]

This is the true liveable city of Australia.

[@anneshaw9681]

Magic city. Most livable in Australia.

[@nmang0846]

Melboune actually is

[@anthonyhenderson3923]

facts because it has a lot of street cars like the Toronto,ON area in Canada

[@kitkat-bp9ho]

Been to Brisbane once when I was 14. I was awed by the beaches in the middle in the city. This is the most beautiful city ever I have seen. The perfect blend between nature and modern city, and the kind of thing that you never find in a concrete jungle like Hong Kong. The friendly vibe, laid back lifestyle.... To me, Brisbane is the perfect city to live in. Now I am going to study in University of Queensland next month. Just watching videos and wish time could pass faster.

[@EvelinaphotographyAu]

Brisbane is amazing! Such a great city!

[@jwcorcoran9838]

Brisbane seems to be the most liveable city in Australia. There’s no doubt that, once the pandemic subsides & travel restrictions are lifted, I’ll be relocating there. What a beautiful place!

[@australiamyway]

Make sure you do your due diligence. Many years ago about 100k flocked to Brisbane and around 75k returned back home. It isn’t for everyone but I love it

[@diet.mountain.dew.]

well

[@pureluck8767]

@@australiamyway what happened

[@thephoenix3155]

It is like the Vancouver/Seattle of Australia as they are all in rainforests.

[@TheAlmightyClipse]

Not even... Brisbane would be more comparable to cities/ towns in Florida, as it's in the "Sub tropical" climate region.

[@proskipbinsbrisbane5935]

Now, I am in Australia. See you very very soon Beautiful Brisbane ..

[@jaehojeong5036]

Summer Olympic 2032 should be opened in Brisbane, Australia🇭🇲.

[@australiamyway]

That’s if the government does the right thing. If you google apparently there is a fight currently between political Parties about who will be the boss

[@WildWorldFact]

Ahh I love this city. Brisbane has been an obsession of mine ever since Charlene left neighbours and headed to Brissy never to be seen again! In my 5 year old brain I imagined this magical place on the other side of the world to me (I’m from England) and dreamed of being there some day. I’m 36 and now live in NSW Australia and I’m so pleased I made it to Brisbane this year for the first time. It was everything I dreamed of and now I’m desperate to move there with my family! It’s literally become my main goal in life to move there . Thanks for sharing

[@shaungordon9737]

Brisbane is actually a really beautiful city. I enjoyed my stay there

What a beautiful view 💕

[@saber4521]

Last year I planned to stay in Brisbane for 6-7 months. I had an amazing au pair family. But then covid came. And I left Brisbane and Australia. After just 5 weeks. I fell so deep in love with this city and the people there. So whenever my heart is heavy and aches I come to such videos. To "feel" Brisbane again. Thank you for that video! Hope to be able to see Brisbane with my own eyes again. Someday...

[@australiamyway]

What a shame your visit was cut short

[@Fim22]

i remember back in 2002, i lived in Brisbane for 2 years when i was just 6 years old because my mother took her master degree in university of queensland. what a beautiful childhood it was, i remember everyweek we just stroll around the town, went to the city garden feeding the ducks lol and i went to school at iron side state school, i have the classroom photos and think to my self where are my firends now and what are they doing. hope to come back here someday

[@anneshaw9681]

Melbourne and Brisbane are the top two most livable cities in Australia by a long way. I lived in the best areas of Sydney for thirty years and is a long way behind these two

[@deu8894]

lovely and exciting city

[@jacobwright8485]

I used to live in this beautiful city. I am so lucky to have been able to call it home. I miss you Brissie! Yes I was harassed by some deadly animals but that didn’t stop me from having an awesome adventure in the land down under. I would totally go back to Australia if i still had enough money.

[@anneshaw9681]

Lived in the best suburbs in Sydney for 30 years. Brisbane and Melbourne leave Sydney for dead and the real estate is half the price. . Magic city to walk around. No other major city has so much natural beauty around it within easy reach.

[@australiamyway]

Well not now. The real estate market has sky rocketed with so many wanting to flee vic. This is what happened around the GFC but many then returned. I think you can look up ABS and see the statistics of 100k relocated to Brisbane and 73k returned home. Lol

[@proskipbinsbrisbane5935]

[@No1carpetcleaningmelbourneAus]

Great video made on Lovely Brisbane. Thanks

[@bryce6744]

Expedia - a nice summary of Brisbane. I think it's changed quite a bit since though. Firstly, it's now closer to 2.5 million - not really having the country feel that you mention - it has become cosmopolitan and should be noted as such. Secondly, I think you'd do well to include the suburbs like West End, which as you'd no doubt know by now, have many great places to go out for lunch/dinner/drinks. It'd be great to see you guys make a fresh video in 2021 if possible. Cheers.
