I can't even get to newcastle for the next two weeks. So by the time I'm there all the liveable places will be gone. Cockroachville here I come.
Depends on what you're prepared to pay. Rooms for around $110/week are quite good. Im at the gardens in a 4bd house, and its got timber flooring in all rooms, fully furnished etc. Some of it is luck, and a lot of it is knowing people, but if you're prepared to pay, you
should be ok.
If all else fails, you can try for a place in the city, and take the bus to lectures and tutes, and do your work at the City Hub (Uni House). Its pretty good in there, nice building, good facilities etc.
