Just been a week old in Melbourne and every other person asks me the same question.... Did you feel the heat?? Honestly speaking the answer is a Very BIG NO, a Big "Fontsize 30" NO ...But should accept that there's indeed a small racist community over here,which is comprised of Nocturnal "Jerks".
If you are a 6am - 6 pm Kinda person, moving around Non- remote areas, you would never feel any discrimation... Ok let me address this issue in two parts.
Normal 6am-6pm Life in a Non-remote area:
First reason you would Love Melbourne is the nature of People here. You don't have to be a friend to get a "Hi" here. Every person who walks past you, throws a smile followed by a 'Howdy'.. It happens everywhere You go. People pick up conversations so easily.. They always have so many things to say.. Most of the people who meet in the "day time", seem pretty worried about the racism against Indians.
The So called Happening time - Night Life:
But if you are kinda Nocturnal person, then you have reasons to worry.. And those reasons are not limted only to Melbourne, it's the same anywhere around the world.Most of the issues that have been reported have all been during off peak hours in remote places. If you happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, you should consider yourself unlucky; careless to some extent too.
Having said all these, I still realise that there are some occasions where you could clearly see a rasict inclination..
What is the reason for such deep rooted racist thoughts? What provokes people?
All of that and much more in another article, because it requires a completely different mindset..
Coming soon.....
