👀 One day's expenses with a language class in Melbourne, Australia.

A cursory review of our one-day expenses. 💰

We have been studying the language at ILSC School for 6 months. We have been studying for a while, so I would like to review the expenses in one day. For information to friends who are deciding to come to Melbourne like us. 🙆🏻‍♀️

We choose accommodation in the Free Tram Zone, so there is no travel charge. We advise friends that choosing accommodation in this area saves us a lot of travel.

.

Let's summarize the cost.

🚃 Travel fee 0 AUD

🍔 Breakfast 6 AUD (~ 135 Baht)

🍗 Fresh Chicken Purchased to Cook 4 AUD (~ 83 Baht)

🛍️ Purchased sundry value 30 AUD (~ 630 Baht)

🌟 1 day summary, we spent a total of 40 AUD or about 839 baht. 💰

Note: For those who want to save a little, we can cook and eat by ourselves. It will help a lot too. Because the fresh stuff here is very good.

For those who are afraid of overspending, we want our friends to make money and pay every day. Because we will know how much we spend per day. And most importantly, come to study in Australia. Student visas work with me for an average of about 24 hours per week (minimum wage is 5xx baht per hour). If you find a part-time job, you can lighten your expenses a lot and maybe have a little money. ✨

... Read moreถ้าใครกำลังหาข้อมูล “เรียนภาษาออสเตรเลีย ค่าใช้จ่าย” เราอยากเสริมภาพรวมที่เจอบ่อย ๆ ตอนใช้ชีวิตนักเรียนภาษาที่เมลเบิร์นค่ะ เพราะนอกจากค่าใช้จ่ายรายวัน (กิน/ของใช้) แล้ว ค่าใช้จ่ายจริง ๆ มักขึ้นกับ 3 เรื่องใหญ่คือ “ที่พัก + การเดินทาง + พฤติกรรมการกิน” 1) ที่พักกับโซนเดินทาง สำคัญมาก จากประสบการณ์เรา การเลือกอยู่ในเขต Free Tram Zone ช่วยลดค่าเดินทางได้ชัดเจน โดยเฉพาะวันที่ต้องเข้าเมือง/ไปเรียนบ่อย ๆ ถ้าอยู่ไกลออกไป ต้องใช้บัตร Myki แตะเข้าออก ค่าเดินทางจะกลายเป็นรายจ่ายประจำทันที เพราะฉะนั้นก่อนจองที่พัก ลองเช็กแผนที่โซนรถราง/ระยะเดินถึงป้าย tram และเวลาไปโรงเรียนจริง ๆ จะช่วยคุมงบได้มาก 2) ค่าอาหาร: ซื้อกิน vs ทำเอง วันที่เราซื้ออาหารเช้าประมาณ 6 AUD ก็ถือว่าไม่ได้แรงมาก แต่ถ้าซื้อกินทุกมื้อ งบจะไหลเร็วมาก ๆ วิธีที่เราว่าประหยัดสุดคือ “ทำง่าย ๆ ที่บ้าน” แล้วค่อยซื้อกินเป็นบางมื้อ ของสดตามซูเปอร์อย่าง Woolworths หรือร้านใกล้บ้านมักมีโปรฯ โดยเฉพาะเนื้อไก่ ผัก ผลไม้ ถ้าซื้อเป็นแพ็คแล้วแบ่งทำ 2-3 มื้อ จะทำให้ค่าอาหารต่อวันลดลงแบบรู้สึกได้ 3) ของจิปาถะ/อุปกรณ์เรียน คือรายจ่ายที่คนมักลืม หลายวันไม่ได้หมดกับค่าเดินทาง แต่หมดกับของใช้เล็ก ๆ น้อย ๆ เช่น ของในบ้าน ของอาบน้ำ อุปกรณ์การเรียน/สมุดปากกา หรือของจำเป็นจุกจิก แนะนำให้ตั้งงบ “miscellaneous” แยกไว้เลย เช่น สัปดาห์ละก้อนหนึ่ง จะคุมง่ายกว่าและไม่รู้สึกว่าเงินหายไปเฉย ๆ 4) ทริคคุมงบแบบทำได้จริง - จดรายรับ-รายจ่ายทุกวัน (แค่ในโน้ตมือถือก็พอ) แล้วสรุปเป็นรายสัปดาห์ - ตั้งงบต่อวัน เช่น 35–45 AUD แล้วดูว่ามื้อนั้นควรทำเองหรือซื้อกิน - ถ้าจะซื้อของเข้าบ้าน ลองซื้อเป็นรอบ ๆ เพื่อไม่ให้เผลอหยิบเพิ่มทุกวัน 5) เรื่องทำงานพาร์ทไทม์ระหว่างเรียน สำหรับคนเรียนภาษาในออสเตรเลีย วีซ่านักเรียนสามารถทำงานได้ตามเงื่อนไขช่วงนั้น ๆ ของรัฐบาล (ควรเช็กกฎล่าสุดก่อนเสมอ) ถ้าหางานพาร์ทไทม์ได้ จะช่วยเรื่องค่าใช้จ่ายประจำอย่างค่าอาหารและของใช้ได้เยอะมาก ทำให้ไม่กดดันเรื่องเงินเกินตัว สรุปคือ ค่าใช้จ่ายเรียนภาษาออสเตรเลียในชีวิตจริง “ไม่เท่ากันทุกวัน” แต่เราคุมได้ด้วยการเลือกโซนที่พักให้เหมาะ (อย่าง Free Tram Zone), ทำอาหารเองบางมื้อ และกันงบของจิปาถะไว้ชัดเจน ใครกำลังวางแผนมาเมลเบิร์น ลองใช้แนวนี้เป็นเช็กลิสต์ก่อนตัดสินใจได้เลยค่ะ
