Brisbane is known for its buzzing night-life, from partying it up at the Down Under Bar in the city during the week, to getting crazy at Birdee Num Nums in the Valley (where the much publicised DeadMau5 was allegedly involved in a mêlée with a Brisbane DJ). One thing’s for sure, neither of these hotspots should be missed out on a visit to Brisbane!
At present, though, there is a slight lull of big events in Brisbane, but with the Brisbane Festival coming up in September there is a lot to look forward to! There is also still a ton to do in the meantime. You must make sure to visit Australia Zoo – home of the late great crocodile hunter Steve Irwin. Other must see Brisbane attractions are Fraser Island and the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary!
If you are heading to Brisbane to look for work and a bit of fun, a good place to start is by joining a job club. A lot of the hostels in Brisbane have their own job clubs that will help you with this. One of these hostels is Base Central, where Jeremy runs the job club desk. If you end up staying here, definitely pay him a visit and pre-register your details with taxback.com. If you are new to Australia and don’t know what the deal is with tax, this is the perfect opportunity to get in the know!
Taxback.com is teaming up with a few great hostels and bars in Brisbane, and hope to have special event nights at these locations up and running soon, so stay tuned as we’ll be publishing all the details both on our blog and on our Facebook page.
You can definitely tell winter is on its way as Mother Nature has been unleashing some of her coldest temperatures in history for this time of the year; with average minimum temperatures just 8 degrees and maximum temperatures only reaching 23 degrees. If you haven’t already done it, I’d recommend investing in a good hoodie to get you through the colder months! Haven’t got the cash for a good hoodie? Then, come in and see us at 131 Elizabeth Street, and we’ll see what we can do to get you the biggest tax refund possible!!!
