A tent seems an odd place for an international university graduate to sleep in at night, especially given Chinese families commonly spend upwards of a quarter of a million dollars sending their children abroad for an Australian education.
But when RMIT media graduate, Dezu Hu, found his first job as an entry-level videographer in Tailem Bend, a rural town 85 kilometres south-east of Adelaide, nearby areas either lacked rental units or houses or were too expensive.
Hu said commuting for two hours between his shared flat in Adelaide to his workplace had exhausted him while his monthly $1,000 fuel bill had become too costly.
Soon he said he began parking his 2006 Subaru Forrester at his workplace and sleeping in the back.
But when the noise of passing traffic became too much to handle, he said he spotted a caravan park next door to this workplace and for $90 per week, proceeded to pitch a six-person tent on a campsite.
