Hi Humanist
80 bucks a week on food is very cheap . I must admit that I am used to grandma food but it will have to be something I will do without. As far as I see it rent is gonna be my main concern. How much an hour (net) would you earn work?ng at a casual student job? I think it's around 15-20 bucks an hour.

I suggest you best learn grandmas cooking secrets, keeps the costs down. Fasolada and cheekpeas are great for you. A bit of assofadita keeps the farts at bay.
Mate I haven't been on a student job or salary for quite sometime but $15 is about the average. If you want to sed me a pvt message with your age and current qualifications I will be able to may be give you a bit more info. Rent is astronomical. In sydney a descent clean place will set you back a lot a studio apartment will set you back $250 near the city and university.
If you consider Sydney and you have some tertiary quals from recognised institution I may be able to give you some names of employers who may take you on. Your salary would then vary from $22 - $25 an hour. I have contacts in welfare field such as child protection and youth work.
. Nobody really listens to anybody here anyway, most people have got concrete views that they try to impose on others. When it comes to the "Cyprus Problem", I don't know what to think myself. Being side of the conflict I don't think I can ever be impartial, but I try to be.
