    Hi
    I have been in perth for about 2 months now. its a really nice place. There are lots of great things to do, but you really do need a car to get around the place because everything is quite seperated, and transperth (public transport trains and buses) can be quite unpredictable.
    Perth living isnt expensive, not compared to sydney, and the accommodation is good and cheaper. I have moved into a shared house cause it suited me but there are lots of great hostels around close to the CBD. Northbridge is the main area of nitelife, its quite good, lots of pubs and clubs. but also, subiaco is really nice and mt lawley.
    fremantle is lovely for a weekend trip and cottesloe for a sunday session, everyone here goes on a session on a sunday, its great. hope yis enjoy perth, Its quiet but nice.

    I stayed in cottesloe Beach for a week while in Perth, in a place called ocean beach backpackers - really enjoyed it and defo would go back. Perth is so clean compared to the rest of Oz cities

    Perth:- my favourite place in the world!

    I'ts beautiful, clean, friendly, laid back.........

    Northbridge is the party area, lots of strip clubs in it though.

    Lived in Subiaco for 5-6 months.
    It's more upmarket.
    The ozzies are more into their cafe bars than good decent pubs, & subi is full of these, as opposed to pubs, so not exactly a place for a wild night out.

    Hope you're enjoying it, lucky sod!!
