A research in Australia or NZ

Hello,

It's the first time I come on this newsgroup.
I'm a french student in anthropology, and I would like to study about
Australia.
I would like to know if it's easy to come in the country for a student
who is making a research, if life is expensive out there... etc.
Is there a big difference between NZ and Australia?
Wich one is better to your opinion for someone like me?

Thank you for your advice!

Caro.

Yes.

who is making a research,

In anthropology? You are probably better asking in an anthropology
newsgroup.

if life is expensive out there... etc.

I would imagine that Australia is comparable to France, perhaps somewhat
cheaper. And, if you are under 30, you can work quite easily.

Is there a big difference between NZ and Australia?

Yes. There are many big differences between Australia and NZ. Culturally
they are similar in some respects.

Wich one is better to your opinion for someone like me?


For studying Australia, Australia would seem the better choice.

Thank you for your advice!

Try being more specific in your questions.

I did too. But I found it more complete if I had an australian's point
of view. Are you?

if life is expensive out there... etc.

By example... How much may cost a flat in a city (a month)? a diner in a
restaurant (not a great one), A week of food? (it's a bit too specific,
now, isn't it? :-D )

Yes. There are many big differences between Australia and NZ. Culturally

What, is NZ more savage? I'd like to find a group very special to
study... maybe a manual work... I'd like to work about shepherds, or
joiners... "Old" jobs wich are still practised.

Ok!... :-)
This is not easy to say what I like about Australia as I don't know much
about it. Maybe this will be clear when I read some anthropology books
about the subject.
In an intuition, I'd say that New Zealand could interest me more. I
don't know why. Is there any tribe left in NZ? I might be mistaken, but
I thought the Maoris lived in NZ?...

Thank you for your answers.
By the way, isn't my English too weird? :-[

Never were. You might as well say that the place is full of pakehas.

Asking an Australian about New Zealanders and sheep is asking for
trouble. Depends how interesting you want your thesis to be, I suppose.

Because shephers are only found in NZ, not in Australia?

Pete, calming things down

I can't really see the weigth of the stupid thing I said yet! Is it
really something that makes people angry about?
