To be honest, living in a 300-dollar apartment at the University of Queensland is not tempting at all!
Not only is it not expensive, but it's also quite comfortable. What we mean is, save where you can, spend where you should.
The advantage of living with an average of 300 per week is the comfort, right in the heart of Brisbane, right next to UQ.
Downstairs is an Asian supermarket and a bus station, with a dedicated bus route directly to UQ, only 5 minutes away.
There's also a Korean supermarket for convenient purchases of daily groceries and necessities. Plus, there's a Woolworths supermarket and an Asian supermarket nearby. Taking a lazy nap before sleeping again, I can only say it's super cozy, without worrying about being late.
