I haven't found Australia expensive, but very comparable to back home. What is amazing is how cheap accommodation is. I am staying in 5-star hotels for $200-300 CAD per night which is ridiculously cheap.
I am currently at Gold Coast Airport and man, must be nice to have a full-blown Miami as close to Brisbane as Abbotsford is to Vancouver. Gold Coast is also home to an amazing variety of tall skyscrapers. Several 75+ floor towers exist and they are currently building a 90-storey skyscraper which will probably overtake Q1 as Australia's tallest. There are also plans for TWO 100+ floor supertalls, which is quite something.
Having all these tall towers rise along the white sand shorelike makes for quite a skyline!
