Queensland University of Technology (QUT)

Brisbane, Australia is a pedestrian friendly city. There are people moving barges called, 'City Cats', that transport only pedestrians up and down the river. Both the bus and above ground train (the only kind they offer) is reliable and safe. You must make time to have (a) beer(s), preferabely the Queensland beer called 'Four X', with one, two, or many of your mates at 4p.m. at least two working days out of the week. There are many excellent Irish pubs. The disco scene is okay. Gourmet coffee is superb overall. For an evening coffee and/or sweet check out coffee shops in the area of town, West End (e.g. Crazy Cat, The Three Monkeys, etc.). On Anzac Day, get your ass out of bed at 4a.m. and head down to Anzac square in the city to watch a beautiful ceremony. Than make sure to watch the sun rise at Mt. Coo - tha. Make sure to spend at least 95% of your day outside!

The best place is a bar called Fridays down on the riverside in Brisbane city. Go up on a Wednesday night, which is unoffically student night, foods is great and drinks are reasonable. Thursday has to be spent in the Port Office hotel then onto the Victory. As for the weekend head down into the district know as the Valley and you should find a good spot.

Victory's in downtown is a good place with good offers; Jazzy Cat's in West End is perfect for breakfast

A trip to Briebie Island is not to be missed and to be done at a very affordable price.

don't miss the whitsundays!

Fridays Club is very nice.
