There are so many opportunitys in Adelaide, you just have to look for them. Maybe wages arent as high, but the cost of living is so damn cheap in this city it more than makes up for it.

Plus our scene is as good as anywhere. Styles have their ups and downs and maybe Ive been lucky but over the years our hardcore, happy hard, nrg and drum&bass have always had the strongest scenes in Oz. Not bad for a small town.

One thing I do notice, is a lot of people choose to blame Adelaide if theyre not happy with their life - rather than blame themselves. They feel that their problems will be miraculously solved by moving to Sydney and the like. It never works and they always end up coming back!!!!

I love Adelaide, and will never leave.

I doubt anyone can give me ONE reason why moving interstate is a good option.




You could not have put it any better than that Josh

A few of my friends around 10 years ago said they were bored with Adelaide and moved to either Sydney or Melbourne.. most have returned.

I have and never will consider moving from here as I have a good lifestyle, I am always happy with what is on offer and for the cheap cost of living most people do not appreciate compared to other places

has left the building

One word to answer this.

Me.



Just ask Nath about our conversation in Hungry Jacks about a month back regarding the effect of illicit substances on the brain.

I'm smart and I stay here. But, whether I'm smart COS I stay here that's another q.

I'm from melbourne, but i love the lifestyle here...everything is close by...however i do miss the excitement and convenince of living in melbourne....its too hard to choose which one is best though, they both have equal pros and cons IMO....

The Future is Bright..........The Future is Energy!

Hmmm..
Well I grew up in Adelaide and have lived in Sydney for the past 3 years (31st October is my 3 year anniversary! eek!)

I really enjoy living in Sydney but I also love Adelaide because it's 'home'.. It does have a lot to offer.. and I always have a great time when I visit...

But I am enjoying living in Sydney so I don't really have a reason to go back yet...
Unless someone can give me one?? hehe

The 3 things I miss most about Adelaide apart from my friends and family are: the cafe culture, trance clubs and my cat
