    Welcome my friend.

    Do you drive an insured camry?

        Do you kayak?

        • No, I don't. I am a little scared of water but I would love to give it a try. I actually need to visit a lot of places. Haven't gone anywhere else other than 12 Apostles and Phillip Island.

            Please do not enter any water until you receive some swimming lessons. I don't want to be reading about you in the news.

          Was just continuing on with this guys racial stereotype of insured camry.

            @[Deactivated]: hahaha. It's okay. I've met a lot of Indians who do Uber, Uber Eats, Receptionists, 7/11s. Right when I thought I could make more local friends. lol

          • +11

            @[Deactivated]: i thought it was about the favourite ozbargain car being a Camry and a lot of posts are about uninsured drivers having accidents and asking for help.

            • @follow: Oh wow. That sucks.

            • @follow: Thought we liked high yield AMGs tbh…

        • But all Uber eat drivers are Indian?

    Hi. Welcome to ozbargain community and Australia. What made you decide to study in Australia?

        • +3

          Master of Design. The thing is, I did bachelors in engineering and had no portfolio in design, so most universities required a portfolio except for Griffith and Monash.

    Welcome to OB!

    I just finished watching Indian Matchmaking on Netflix, really interesting, didn’t realise it’s that common in the Indian community!

    • +2

      Hey! Thanks! Sorry for the late response.

      To be honest, the way that series depicted the Indian community is mostly false and a lot of people disliked the show. We view it as more of a comedy series instead. lol. Overall, don't believe it fully is what I would say. :P

      But thanks for showing your interest in our culture! I feel really happy that there are folks out there who want to know more about Indian culture. If you want to know anything else, do let me know! Happy to help. :D

    You like gaming… What games are you into?

        Cool! Well, keep an eye out for PC deals here, there are actually quite a lot you can find here on OzBargain.

        • I actually am! I am looking to purchase a new rig. If possible a 5600x + 3070 but can't seem to find it. :(

  • New to Australia (From India)

    Welcome to Oz! I thought the international borders were still closed to non-citizens and non-PRs?

    • Hi! Thank you very much!

      I’ve been here since 2018. Pursued 2 years of Masters degree at Monash. Haven’t gone back home since feb and I don’t plan to. Lol.

      • I’ve been here since 2018

        Ah right. I thought you meant "new", as in the last few weeks or month or two.

        • Oh! I apologize. I still consider this as new tho. lol. xD
