Default Student - Mooloolaba or Brisbane?

Hello - I'm was hoping I could get help or personal preference from folk

I've found the same Fitness course (tafe) which is being offered in both Brissy & Moooloolaba. I just can't decide between the two. I have been to Brisbane before and loved it, but I'm also hearing that Mooloolaba is lovely too

Being a student I have to think about the cost of things ie; accommodation, food & also part-time work etc.... Is there much difference between the two?

In people's opinions, what would be the best place for a student?

Thanks
Lynchy

I think you need to give more info in your post to get more replies!!

What fitness course? Are you going just to study or are you looking at PR at the end of it? What sort of family are you, city or suburbs?

Yeah sorry

Single guy with no ties, doing a Diploma in Fitness. I'm not looking into the PR route as I know a diploma in Fitness isn't on the MODL.

Probably looking for good pubs/clubs/nightlife scene with entertainment & shopping. Whatever place offers more to do

Have you looked at the Gold Coast? Thats where me and OH are looking at going, everythin on your doorstep, as well as all the tourists from all over the world passing through.

Maybe someone who's already there can help you a bit more than I. Good luck with your search though!!

Why would you want to do the study route then? seems an expensive option if you don't need to?

Exactly what my folks said...lol

I've been in the same boring dead end job for years now & lucky enough I was made redundant. I didn't think that at the time, but looking back if it wasn't for losing my job I would be stuck there bored to tears

Yes, I could do this course in the UK but I feel if I've got the money why not learn something new while in a country I loved - having been before. I'm not counting out PR, but as my agent said I may be able to get a sponsor later on down the line.

I just need a change from this same routine

lol, it wouldn't bother me if you were drunk all the time

Hmmm I shouldn't be saying that seeing as though I'm looking to get into the fitness industry

There's always room for more!!
