I'm originally from Canada. Lived in Australia from 2008-2010 and again since 2013. In general, the cost of living is significantly higher and salaries somewhat lower, so you will take a hit in terms of disposable income. Aussies generally work fewer hours so it does balance out to some extent. The beaches and weather clinch the deal.
