I have seen Gabe's Australian videos. They don't strike me as very representative of the places he goes. More like viewing Australia through a keyhole. He seemed to sleep most of the day and then went out exploring late afternoon and missed most things, arriving late, as things are closing and the light is fading. He also limited his ability to miss any unfavourable weather and seemed to find very expensive places to eat. His adventures lack any planning, which appears to be by design, but I am always thinking of all the things he missed. How can you be walking past Sydney Harbour and not know what it is? Lots of pictures of buildings, alleys, garbage bins and mud, which seemed to contribute to his impression that it looked like any other place in the world. An interesting perspective, I guess.
The bird is an ibis, or a bin chicken. The only things they destroy are garbage bins. Kookaburras look like ostriches? Man - he really needs glasses! The Outback Steakhouse is as Australian as Mom, baseball, and apple pie.
Gabe is always in a hurry, and misses a few things, but he has places to go and other things to see, that's just his way! 😁 He's a bit exhausting, but does good footage! 🥴 If you want to go to the Antarctic you have to go to Hobart first to catch one of their boats! 😊 This is very instructive, I thought it would be useful to you! 👍 Good to hear of your healthier diet, just throw in some ginger! 🫂
I've been watching that Gabe guy, constant whinging about prices. He stays in the cheapest hostel accommodation and compares cost to Asia. That's why he spends weeks in India and only a few days in Australia- he's full of it.
@@joanneburford6364 Yes, quality and convenience costs, research is very important, Australia is far cleaner than Asia, our wages and costs are higher, ask a local for advice, try to be happy and be in the moment - that's what I would tell him! 😊
@Jennifer Harrison watch him closely, he's constantly making backhanded comments - quite nasty and misinformed. For someone who has travelled for decades, he's apparently not done any research and sleeps in until after lunch. Two things that an experienced traveller normally doesn't do. He responded to one of my posts and didn't answer my questions about comparing prices to Asia, just went into denial and said he was enjoying himself - he's full of it.
@@joanneburford6364 Yes, I noticed a couple, very observant! I know he didn't check quite a few things, or didn't care! For Dar's purposes he was helpful with travel details, but he's really not my sort of person! I'm enjoying watching One Pack Wanderers, they are a lovely people!
Been following this bloke and he takes you to not only the tourist area but as many of the smaller off the map places he can pull into or get the time to see. Worthwhile watching.
Bin Chicken actually an Ibis
And specifically, the White Ibis 😁
He's looking at a pic of an emu when talking about the kookaburra (cook-ah-bahrah). The Australian plug is used in Argentina, New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga, Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea and a few other Pacific island countries. The angled plug gives greater stability than the parallel. If he's going on to Fiji, he'd need an adapter anyway. The universals we have here work all over the world. Perhaps they should call their adfapters Northern Hemisphere not universal adapters.
The beetroot we put in burgers is pickled sweet and vinegary. Its basically red pickles
His Video at Katoomba was pretty good......even funny how he was looking for the 3 sisters as was standing in front of them lol
A general comment (or question) about how/why Americans say "lay down" when they mean "lie down". Looking at older movies, they never used to get this wrong. "Lay" is the past tense of "Lie". When he says "I was able to lay down" he actually means "I was able to lie down", that is, unless he was laying an egg or laying a table (or his girlfriend).
I’ve never seen or heard of Outback Steakhouse. I think it’s an American franchise.
You did see a lot from Denmark. Sydney opera house is designet by Danish architect Jørn Utzon. Just you know 😎
Haven't traveled much but Sydney-LA was like 14 hours, although honestly waiting for my grandfather to do all the paperwork for the rental car felt just as long haha
There is a tree in the Botanical Gardens, said to be the oldest tree on the planet. Im'e surprised Gabe missed it. 😢😢😢
LOL - a bin chicken (ibis) is not the national bird of Australia mate! That would be the emu. 😀
Lol he went the long way.. he was close to the Opera house in the botanical garden but went straight up to the library and through the quay. Hes after the dramatic reveal!!
9:15... Catholic girl's school.
31:55... Our $1 coin first came out in the early 80s... the $2 coin came out years later when we discontinued the $2 note.
32:15... We no longer have crowded streets after a long covid lockdown closed down many small business's and tourism. (I don't know how long it will take to recover)
35:40... Our alcohol and cigarette prices are very high due to increasing taxes to try and make us healthier. (also revenue raising)
So far his most interesting video from Australia was "Epic Nature Exploring in the Mountains of AUSTRALIA" from 9 days ago
Australia is so much more than the cities...you need to travel out of the city to capture the true beauty that is Australia 🇦🇺
Gabriel is an OG in the youtube travel community. Cool video
The tree at 19.48 is a Monkey Puzzle tree. They’re native to the southern part of South America and are a type of Araucanian conifer - a Gondwanan relict group.
React to his video “epic nature exploring in the mountains of Australia” I think it’s the best video he’s made here so far in Aus
Outback Steakhouse is an American thing, we don't have it here.
Also, I work at Coles, we always have the power adapters for the US, UK and others.
Good old Gabe, iv'e been around the world with him over the years. I love it when he takes me to the GIs.
Australia has three time zones, so it depends on where you are for the time differences to SE Asia. Bangkok is 1 hour behind Perth, 2.5 hours behind Darwin, and 3 hours behind Melbourne/Sydney (East Coast).
I live in Australia and if i use a ATM from your own bank you don't get charged, as well as about 4 other banks ATMS that my bank has an arrangement with, we can also take out money from the self serve check outs at our two nation wide groceries companies, Woolworths and Coles.
G'day Mate! "Outback Steakhouse" has little or nothing to do with Australia and the food is ordinary...Went to the one in Campbelltown and ...Never again! Cheers!
About phone plans. In australia we have lots of providers but Telstra has the widest national coverage. Thing is their long range and remote towers only work on their sim cards so if your travelling outside major centres and some smaller towns you need a telstra phone because they monopolise the coverage.
Hahaha I actually work for ‘outback steakhouse’ in Brisbane here in Australia
It's wise to check the phone thing, so you know what applies. When Swedes go abroad, we call for the same rate throughout the EU, but as soon as we go outside, it becomes insanely expensive to call. What most people do is that they don't call or answer the phone, but just keep in touch with those at home via Whatsapp or social media when they have Wifi. I made a short phone call to Sweden from Turkey once "Tell mom I'm on the plane in Turkey and we're leaving now. Gotta hang up, it's expensive to call" was basically all I said - that call cost me $8
Potts Point is the most expensive suburb in Sydney. Snob heaven
I was looking up around the world tickets from USA with 5 stops and it was under $3 k so you could see Africa, Europe, Asia , Australia and still get en extra stop spare
Yeah I been to Outback I open the back door and there it is.
Outback steakhouse is maybe 1% Australian. They are an American restaurant with an aussie name and that's it.
Those sorts of street signs are usually in the centre of the city to help tourists
Hey darr when you make video on top 5 city in oz in darting around the world btw nice video i think he now already make vid on cairns you should also look video he visit melbourne
Aus doesn’t have AT&T
Sounds like US Telecommunications companies might be better about international roaming than Australian ones. International roaming rates can be extremely painful - you can end up with an unexpected bill in the thousands.
26:00 Universal adapters for using foreign plugs ia Australian type I sockets are
easily found in supermarkets and many convenience stores and Hardware stores.
and are inexpensive no more than $3 USD
I have at least 10 of them in a draw.
Most of these adapters are cheap Chinese crap.
High quality adapters are more difficult to find - because people do
not wish to spend too much money on them.
It's definitely a time difference, I mean even NSW and Western Australia are at least 2 hours apart.
3hrs in summer .
Outback Steakhouse is an American outfit and has nothing to do with Australia. And their food is not really what you would call Australian.
It's shit
well where i am in australia i’m exactly 3 hours ahead of bangkok so sydney would probably be 4 hours ahead
Cant figure out why he is walking down the middle of a narrow roadway when there are footpaths available. He is very odd. (:
The time difference to Thailand is behind 3hrs about the same as Perth Cheers
Often painfully self-mis-informed, but at least doesn't just focus on Sydney's cliches. Not being able to pronounce is Woolloomooloo is forgiveable. But good to know Australia's power plugs are totally unique in the world (Geez!).
Miles to get to a destination isn’t very useful on foot. It depends if your going uphill or downhill😊
You should really watch planet earth's bin chicken. They are amazing (evolutionly speaking) gronks
Only get jet lag if you cross the international date line. We are ahead of most other countries other than Say NZ ‘South pacific island nations
bin chicken (australian white ibis)
For phone international roaming but it will cost you. Pick up a a ifs & go pre paid with heaps of data, for fretalk & txt.
He is American alright the large coin is 50c
They are the banks mate. Filthy thieves?
Outback Steakhouse is American. He nothing Australian about it. Get a good steak at the pub
Just walk into a bank stop being so dramatic your not going to last here in Oz mate 😀
Jetlag? 2 hours of jetlag?????
Say wot! Well this guy IS NOT an ornithologist. EYE BIS (phonetic -how to say it )- Ibis (correct spelling of name) … BIN CHICKEN (colloquial name of bird).
He showed a pic of an EMU but talked about a Kookaburra whilst trying to pin these names onto the bin chickens he saw in the park. No! Got it all wrong he did. OUTBACK STEAKHOUSE IS NOT AUSTRALIAN - I’ve never been.
I find this guy totally clueless and always comparing things to the US. 🙄 You would think he would be more knowledgeable of where he is going and do some research at least. He just quickly goes around and seems he has no idea what he's doing.
He's fooling a lot of people, wanders off down the worst routes in mid afternoon and wonders why he can't get into certain places, only thing he organises is hostel accommodation in some of the worst areas. Deliberately doesn't show decent hotels and sites and constantly talking about the high cost of everything compared to Asia. He was in India for weeks and decided to do a last minute drop by for a few days here - seriously 🤦♀️
Gabe is a bad travel guide, he always misses the best options and in Sydney his main thing was to prove the notion that it was very expensive, he would walk past cheap options to choose a tourist rip-off. He is obviously very left-wing because he chose to feature alternative areas like Newtown rather than nice areas of Sydney. He is always sleeping most of the day and is desperate to have a beer!
That's an Ibis..... pretty tame... but hungry lmao
