Brisbane

Live in big city. Public transport helps. We once bought a flat's worth of furniture from IKEA (double bed, three seater couch, tables, chairs and all the smaller items) and wheeled it all home from a few ks away with a gorilla cart. That was fun. When I lived in regional NSW I used to hitch everywhere. The only issue I had with that was carrying too many groceries on my shoulders once and hurting my back. I also got to spend a day delivering eggs and shooting the breeze with a farmer who picked me up. That wouldn't have happened if I had a car and drove everywhere. Didn't seem so solitary at the time.
