NOTES :

• Basically skali makan di restoran biasa AUD 12 - 17, disarankan sharing, lumayan bisa hemat setengahnya
• Makan di resto junk food bisa lebih murah AUD 4 - 8
• Kalo di restoran gitu, biasanya water gratis, kecuali water dalam kemasan
• Jangan banyak jajan, karena sekali jajan bisa habis AUD 6 sendiri
• Harga mineral water AUD 3-4, baiknya selalu bawa water dari hostel
• Standar harga hostel per malem AUD 35, usahain cari yang strategis biar hemat penggunaan transport, jangan lupa cek penilaian orang-orang di trip advisor atau web serupa sebelum membeli ya!
• Budget tergantung dari berapa lama tinggal di aus
• Living Cost per day dengan schedule jalan2 sekitar city doang (tanpa tour besar) paling banyak habisnya IDR 1.000.000
• Manfaatkan layanan transportasi gratis di australia, lumayan banget bisa hemat (free bus di syd / tourist tram di melb)
• Kalau mau beli nomer australia yang bisa connect internet harus ngeluarin kocek sebesar AUD 40, gw sih ga beli, sayang duit. Hehe..
