It's amazing you stepped outside on your first morning and said "it's a dry heat". It's a Perth meme.

[@OnePackWanderers]

HA! It's an Arizona meme, too 😂

[@vicstar62]

Haha love it!

[@rebekahsprlyan6982]

It’s so strange seeing my hometown on the internet like this 😁 Have a great time while you’re here in Perth!

[@__carbon__]

Fellow Perthian 🤝

[@kanebarrett9810]

ikr lmao

[@noahlenten8360]

lol perth

[@davidreynolds2117]

Hey guys welcome to Oz Hope you enjoy our beautiful and BIG brown land. One Tip I will give you is stay hydrated and wear a hat and sunscreen our sun down here is no joke and you will get badly burnt so slip (on a hat) slop (on sunscreen) slap (on a hat)

[@davidreynolds2117]

oohh yeah one more thing enjoy the flies (you will learn the aussie salute soon enough) lol

[@davidreynolds2117]

I mean slip on a shirt lol

[@beau_de_jour]

totally based. I’m from Italy but I’ve greek albanian origins (so, I used to have always sea and a lot of sun) and I’m now in Perth (autumn season, just at the start) the sun is crazy strong. Europe can’t be compared, not at the same level at least, I mean

[@matthews2840]

So glad that you chose Perth at this time of the year, it's raining here in Sydney. Hope you get to Rottnest island for the quokkad and maybe down to the Dunsborough/ Margaret River region for more nature and wineries. Cottesloe beach for the sunset. Hope you enjoy your time there

[@anthony3295]

Perth looks beautiful. Also, Telstra is definitely the best if you’re going outback since they have the best coverage!

[@OnePackWanderers]

Indeed, we looked for Telstra in the airport and no luck. Will definitely look for a Telstra store when we re-up.

[@clayto001]

I was going to say I work at the closest Telstra store to the airport - but only just came across your video! Before you head over to Adelaide make sure you switch from Optus. Telstra is the only provider you’ll get rurally

[@deathbyteabag6381]

Just dont get Telstra for home internet.

[@IcelandballAnimations]

You darn right Perth is beautiful i live there

[@catherinerakich3291]

Welcome ! welcome ! welcome ! ... I will probably see a fresh perspective of my home city Perth and country ( through your camera lens ) than in all of my time living here !!! ... you see what most of us take for granted ( all countries visited ) and show it to us again and let us know just how good or not it is !!! ... I usually smile through your whole vlog !!! ... thank you !!!

[@user-vq3qv7ig9j]

Perth ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Perth

[@IloveFreo]

Welcome to Perth! I’ve only just stumbled across your channel so looking forward to your adventures in Australia! Hope you got to visit Fremantle and some Perth beaches, Western Australia has the best sunsets!

[@JosMc]

cannot b eat an NT sunset ;)

[@GreenDistantStar]

Perth is glorious! Of course the beaches etc are great, but get out of town a bit too. The Perth Hills area is stunning.

[@anthrax3943]

You will love Australia. There are many national parks, beautiful beaches and hiking spots !

[@cdnsilverdaddy]

Taiwan people are friendlier I found lol

[@sean66ish]

Welcome to my home city. Even I didn’t know about the light show in town. May I suggest going back to Kings Park at night and seeing the lights. Also hit the beaches at sunset. Maybe go to Fremantle and see the Freo markets, the cappuccino strip for coffee and the boat harbour. Can be a bit touristy though. Compared to Singapore and the places you have visited, Perth is quiet but us Sandgropers like it that way. Have fun. 👍🏼

[@jasgem76]

Welcome to Australia! 🇭🇲 Can't wait till see what you get up to here.

[@kerrinducker4783]

Welcome to Perth and Western Australia! The very long grassed area in the beginning of your video was the very first "airport" in Perth. It's known as the Esplanade. I hope you get to see lots of our state. There's soooo much to see!

[@AllTheFishAreDead]

"We ended up settling for Optus" is honestly the most aussie thing you could have said.

[@B4H4D4]

wow.. im from perth and I have never seen it look this good. you guys nailed it.

[@davidhoward5392]

Where I live, in the Perth Hills, laid back and relaxed living, Kings Park magnificent view over the Swan River

[@ottotitslinger3430]

To travel away from populated areas or away from main interstate roads you need TELSTA, virtually no other phones work.

[@stevecam724]

You've gotta be happy we didn't have a day above 39 this summer, it's been very mild but very dry too. Hope you enjoyed yourselfs while you were here 👍

[@cateycate7238]

Welcome to Australia guys!! Can’t wait to see what you get up to… definitely be careful of your sun exposure and stay hydrated - it’s the end of summer but that sun is still a scorcher! 🇦🇺 ☀️

[@brettcadet1968]

Welcome to Australia. If you plan on visiting Melbourne and need help with anything, please yell out. Australia is a great country with lots to see.

[@karenaadams5988]

This just came up in my yt feed and I have to congratulate you both on the excellent job you did, not only in capturing spot on content, but also your editing skills… well done! You picked a great day to arrive…. I remember back in the day (before the digital age) landing in some new place in the world and discovering it was a public holiday and everything was closed…. Spent a few hungry first nights here and there, lol…. Enjoy your time in Aus 😎👍

[@aussiegooner]

I've watched you guys travel all over the world, and it's just wild to finally see you in my neck of the woods! Please organise a meet-up if you're still in Perth!

[@BomberFletch31]

Looks like you picked the right time to come. The train line from the city to the airport only opened recently. Also at 7:49 you walked straight past Perth's best fish & chips: Grand Lane.

[@DerangedAussieMan]

Aussie here. It's so funny seeing people get all excited about Perth haha. And being confused by how to eat a meat pie. Glad you're enjoying it here!

[@julieroberts2110]

Love seeing my home as seen through a tourist’s eyes. Perth people are v friendly but the sun is hot and it’s been quite cool this summer. Hope you found some of our beaches but don’t forget the sunscreen and hats.

[@tulinfirenze1990]

LOL - Only a Perthian would describe a summer with no official days over 40 degrees as "quite cool this year". It's STILL been bloody hot and, in fact, that is one of the main things wrong with Perth - if the average summer temps were about ten degrees lower, it'd be perfect.

[@mattvjmeasures]

Welcome to my home town. I run round the river around Elizabeth Quay almost every evening. Such a beautiful city.

[@numynumevs]

Lived in Perth all my life , hope you guys enjoy

[@georgeryan3310]

Enjoy Australia,i did,it has everything,by the way the river you could see from Kings Park is The Swan River,you can get a ferry down to Freemantle and out to Rottness Island from Elisabeth Quay,both are well worth a visit,Australia is a magical land,and i will be following your progress with envy and hoping it,s not to long before i visit again. ENJOY.

[@H.Witcher]

Welcome to the Great Southern Land 😀 Was surprised Cheveyo initially said he didn't mind the the Australian summer heat lol. Summer is almost over except it's normally hottest in Feb in South East Australia anyway. Cost of living has gone up in Australia like other countries since COVID hit.

[@Karenanneseven]

It was fantastic to see our beautiful city of Perth! Enjoy Australia 🫶🇦🇺

[@dalewallace4802]

8:14 those plaques in front of the trees in kings park have the names of fallen soldiers on them, my grandfather used to polish them every year, I don't know for how long.

[@donnakitchen7063]

Welcome to my home town guys. Can't wait to see Australia through your eyes.

[@targess9353]

My hometown and the most beautiful place I've ever visited/resided. Perfect climate, gorgeous city and lovely people. What more could you ask?!!!

[@renicostareni2313]

Maybe, you shouldn't ask but just tell more and more about this wonderful city, for example: why this City is so neat? Why Daniel Ricciard doesn't come back to his lovely hometown?😢💔😢😁

[@bigchungus4184]

Kings park is the biggest public park ( 4.06 square kms ) in the southern atmosphere, right in the heart of the city of Perth.

[@RobsBushcraftandAdventures]

This brought back memories from our (with my wife) trip over to Perth a couple of years ago from where we live on the Gold Coast. We stayed in a apartment on the big hill you walked up to Kings Park. And I kid you not, the spot you sat down in the park with the view back down on the city is the exact spot we sat to watch new years fireworks which were a non event because there were non on the waterfront and were all back behind the buildings. If you guys can afford the expense and the time you should really try to get to Rottnest Island. Nice bike riding around the island if it's not too hot, great spots everywhere for picnics and swimming, and of course the Quokkas. You'll find them all over the island but for the getting up close and personal with these cute guys just walk and ride around the townsite on the island. Hope you have a good time in Oz.

[@ANgThur]

Remember check out the Wave Rock, there’s a small town in very south of Perth with popular of 3 people, you should see them. Perth is like England, they have tea time in the afternoon, serves tea and cookies. I took the train to travel everywhere in Perth, they have beautiful beaches too .

[@GarethHall]

Haha this was randomly in my recommended, and I’m watching it right now from my apartment in Elizabeth Quay 😂😂 Glad you enjoyed the light show, I was there too ;)

[@pikk0n1]

Welcome to my city! Hope you're handling the heat well. Whilst the days are hot, it really cools down at night here for some relief. Also, that's the Swan River that you see from Kings Park.

[@mrboogang]

I'm a little bit late guys, but welcome to Perth! Hope you had ana awesome time here. Great channel!

[@OnePackWanderers]

Hello! Thank you 😊

[@robhancock1412]

Thanks for a great video. Looking forward to our visit to Perth next January 😊

[@Meister21]

Australia, let's go! Looking forward to your Australian adventure. I plan to go there someday.

[@HawthornFCclipz]

You should I live in Australia and I love it here

[@KamramBehzad]

Maybe I should travel to Perth! I've lived in Australia for 30 years and I've never been to Perth. It's a continent away from Sydney.

[@thalyaisa9177]

Hello. Just wanted to let you both know I came upon your vlogs about two weeks ago and have enjoyed it since. I look forward to watching your past travels and recent destinations. Stay safe with more travels to come. Thank you both for sharing your amazing adventures with us.😁

[@rosemerrynmcmillan1611]

Northbridge is the place to go for food in Perth. Go to the Asian spots. Yummy! Pinjarra Pies Franchis have lots of awards for their pies. Aussies usually eat their pies with TOMATO SAUCE! BTW if you don't want to blow your budget with food shop at Woolworths or Coles supermarkets. Bread roll with a tin of tuna on it $2.50.

[@northernbloke]

Excited for you guys. Had to leave Perth due to Covid in 2020 but I’ll be back. Freo is worth a look, Cottesloe, the Brass Monkey, Amplifier Bar if its still there. Pinnacles. Ningaloo & Karijini if you’re going north.

[@rach24321]

love Perth ..just returned from there visiting my son ( from the UK ) you will love it!!

[@shaunnalarvin280]

Perth is where I live! WA is a sunning State from top to bottom ❤

[@Liam25025]

Apart from Halls Creek and a few places like that in the north.

[@bethaniej]

Welcome to Perth!! (I totally rate that train station bakery, i go there every time i go to the city.)

[@theend9494]

enjoy Perth is such a beautiful city, reminds me of San Diego

[@pennyxu7554]

Yay! You're in Australia! I love Perth! I love their flea markets!

[@HK-cp8tm]

Welcome to our home!! God bless! x

[@FionaEm]

Welcome to Australia ☺ Hope you have a great time. Remember that our summer sun is ridiculously intense, so wear hats, keep hydrated, and use A LOT of sunscreen!

[@spun_01]

You'll probably end up in the outback, but it isn't the dingoes you need to worry about. It's the dropbears. Welcome to Australia guys! See you on the east coast!

[@JBofBrisbane]

Don't forget the hoop snakes.

[@Potomacstud]

Perth , Australia , Sweet memories indeed , leaping kangaroos , sleepy koalas and possums , the weather looked divine , well you probably might like to visit Hutt Lagoon at Port Gregory to see pink lake, it's pretty facinating to see a lake that's totally pink

[@lync6930]

Welcome to Perth! Enjoy your stay here! 😊😊😊

[@SamFournier]

Yayyy, you guys made it! So cool to see you in another country, that tree in the bloopers was absolutely stunning🌳🤗

[@marieravening927]

That tree is a Moreton Bay Fig tree. They grow enormous but the figs are not edible. They are native to Queensland.

[@TheSkskitey]

Welcome to Perth , not many cheap meals and touristy stuff costs a lot too but a great place to see . Oh yeah sorry about the heat but it does get cooler some days . You will have to check out the beaches as we have the best in the world , I think :-)

[@chrispekel5709]

Not the best in the world but they're unpopulated, which is awesome

[@mickhughes6327]

G'day guys, welcome to WA. Quick tip if you're gonna go bush, stick with Telstra. They'll work in places Optus won't. And most definitely do not underestimate the sun here. As we say....remember to Slip Slop Slap.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Good to know, thank you!

[@WIgirl26]

I am so glad I found your videos of Australia. I have been watching all kinds of travel content of Australia and you guys are the first people who got a cellphone plan instead of trying to use your own cellphone company from home. What a great idea!! I never thought of that. It would be way cheaper then a International Plan. One suggestion!!! Please make a playlist for your Australian Trip please. I see a playlist for a lot of your other trips, but none for your trip to Australia?? It would make it easier for us who want to see them in chronological order. ❤

[@jamiesutcliffe4181]

Welcome to Oz! Definitely get hats and sunscreen as several people have already advised. If you get to Melbourne, come up to the Dandenong Ranges for a hike in our forest. Enjoy

[@rhiannonarnold]

"It's a dry heat" 😅 The unofficial motto of Perth

[@supamaia1]

Hope you guys make it to Sydney Have a great time.

[@jaredford8440]

Don't tell the other states ,but Sydney is my favorite ❤️👋🇳🇿

[@jamesmalthouse7411]

TIa and Cheveyo have just arrived again, so getting my wife to sit down and watch their first trip.

[@greekre]

welcome to perth. watch your back and your equipment, its like san fran here currently

[@albertkoey]

Perth. That may well be my next family vacation trip. I posed this question to ChatGPT "Plan a cheap itinery for 5-day trip to perth, including how to travel (car rental?) and cheap accommodation to stay? List down some cheap accommodation to stay." The answers changes each time I asked again. Anyway, your vlog may provide ideas for my own family vacation! :)

[@ahmedmashhour1912]

Just starting the video and the 6:30 AM render on the grass did not go unnoticed, your editing is getting to whole new level. now back to watching the video :)

[@christinehiggins8154]

Your video just popped up on my feed. Welcome to AUS! and welcome to Perth :) Native Perthie here and I'm so glad you had some great first days here. So lucky to catch the Festival too. I haven't yet watched any of your other videos and have no idea how long you are here for but Perth has a free bus service in the City called CAT buses (Central Area Transit) which have different colours depending on where in the city you wanted to go. If you go to the Transperth Centre you can pick up timetables. I think they also have CAT buses in Fremantle too. Definitely make sure you keep hydrated, wear hats and sunscreen as our summers can be very intense and you always have to be wary of getting heatstroke. Stay cool and hope you have a great time in WA!

[@jackleentoop7693]

If you haven’t already done it check out the clipper buses. They are red, blue and yellow and they are free and go to different places in Perth. Train travel is fairly cheap too, Fremantle and Mandurah also have the clipper buses once you get off the train. If you buy a public transport ticket you have two hours of travel for the ticket. Watch out for the sun, its hotter than you think and you’ll get burnt easily. Get hats and sunscreen.

[@CambodiaNomadTips]

Great that you made it to Australia. Been a few times and loved it. Queensland is amazing.

[@crewone-zy9tu]

Please don’t give up making content in our country🎉

[@daviddixon9458]

You need some dead horse for your dogs eye. Also try a snot log whist in Australia. Translation: you need some sauce (tomato sauce that is) for your pie. The snot log is a vinila slice.

[@Gav671]

The next generation of Nate and Kara. Love the show.

[@patsim1615]

Perth is best to go from July to September... coldest is in July... Fremantle is a must visit city town ... Easily reach by public train and take only half an hour ride

[@jurrassitol15]

Welcome to Australia! Definitely picked a good time as it’s the tail end of summer, so not extremely hot…though the weather has been a bit crazy in Australia at the moment, and I know that Sydney has definitely not been as hot as it has been in the past (La Niña in effect!). Enjoy Perth! Can’t wait to see what you get up to in my home city of Sydney (hopefully will run into you if you’re there on the weekend, work gets in the way on a weekday 😅)

[@rudyhachey7440]

Welcome to Perth mates, so enjoyed the vid, the fireworks were great, that pie looked delish. Perth is stunning, enjoy your visit!!!

[@sweetcheeks3798]

Direct flight from Singapore to Perth is around 4 1/2 hrs to 5 hrs only 😅, you chose the long route🙃 WELCOME TO PERTH ❤ You came on the super hot day. Enjoy!!! Fair bit of walk from the city to King's Park. Harry Styles is performing in Perth today (20 February 2023).

[@lynZy05]

The cheaper route? Hahaha

[@sweetcheeks3798]

@@lynZy05 PERSIN one way on Scoot is $159, you mean there is a cheaper flight than this? 😮

[@AuntyJack123]

Exactly what I thought!

[@richardgodber8369]

You’ve come right in hottest part of year . Perth is bloody awful in summer

[@MaxandJacqueline]

G'day! Hope you both have an awesome time down under! You can eat healthy ready-made meals from our supermarkets for a pretty affordable price (Coles and Woolworths). Excited to watch more of your Aussie series 🦘

[@trevorcook3129]

Welcome to Perf. This time of year is usually in the 40c range so you’ve picked a great summer to come here. The UV rays will still be high hence the “stay hydrated “ comments. Good to see the airport train link working

[@jhjwarren]

I live in Perth and didn’t know about the City of Lights! Crazy seeing Perth on KZbin. Hope u enjoyed your stay.

[@sharonw3982]

Welcome to Perth, make sure you go to our beautiful beaches, Scarborough & Cottesloe beach locally and beautiful Rottnest island and take a selfie with a quokker - enjoy.

[@donfm375]

I'm 19 and lived in perth my whole life, but this is the first time I heard it called the cityy of lights ;)

[@CalamityTravels]

That was a pretty good English accent Cheveyo, someone's been practising

[@GuyWynn-jones-wv9th]

Oh you are making me feel so homesick! Hope you liked our city

[@stevemunachen]

Perth! My home town - but live in London now. Make sure you go to Rottnest Island and cycle around the whole island.

[@joannachen100]

Welcome to Australia! ❤ Can’t wait to follow your adventures. Hope you will come to Sydney too 😄

[@pokeskan]

i would think 99% of tourists go to Sydney

[@okcomputer6320]

My home-town! Gosh you know I very rarely go to those inner city spots these days. Nice to see them from an external perspective. You have got me craving a meat pie, haven't eaten one in ages. You've inspired me, must eat soon. 😅

[@robertmurray8763]

TELSTRA has the best coverage for Australia 🇦🇺

[@AuntyJack123]

Hahahaha it's Telstra!

[@juliek6278]

Omg you picked a hot day to be here! You did well on ur first day with the heat. Hope u enjoy ur time here. Every city in Aus has a different vibe ❤ we are a relaxed bunch 😊 just watch out when walking around the city at night. And I agree curry puffs are the best thing in the world!

[@cetat468]

Dont know if u still here or have been already, but u can take a ferry from Elisabeth quay to South Perth. Its another nice view of the city and Perth zoo is on that side of the river. Look like u having fun. Welcome to Perth

[@simonfarrow1585]

G'day. You blokes are so jammy, perfect timing. First the Thaipusam now the Light Festival. Good on yer. Cheers, Simon.

[@timbarlow5139]

we were in Perth 22 years ago . if you have time get the train to Cottesloe beach. well worth it .

[@mason3226]

I hope you guys enjoyed Perth!

[@danielsimpson6885]

I think Perth is the most beautiful city in all of Australia.

[@chopper7352]

Welcome to Perth. Enjoy your time here. I'm on the Coast, about 50km/minutes south of Perth. Cheers

[@sarahwilk1992]

I had to watch My home city lol even though I can go to these places everyday if I wanted to, but seeing you guys enjoying it makes me wanna go to these places again, you guys enjoy 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@AuntyJack123]

I hope you enjoy our big brown land and get to see some of the outback and wildlife.

[@suerowan3594]

Welcome to Australia Tia & Chev you will have a wonderful time. Hope you are able to travel to Queensland lol looking forward to seeing your Australian journey 😍

[@petergrove5132]

Welcome to my backyard. Hope you enjoy your stay here. Nice time of the year to be in Perth.

[@lamthaotran19]

Totally unrelated but are you guys planning on going back to Vietnam any time soon? I still re-watch your VN series sometimes because of your dad. Cheers!

[@coachab100]

I have been to Perth a couple times. I stayed in Fremantle both times and LOVED ain’t. Highly recommend the small beach town! Safe travels
