Im thinking about studying in Aus. for a year, and have been doing a lot of research on living there etc. Seems like quite the place, but, in all honesty, I have to ask -- whats the deal with this Huntsman spider?

Ive seen pics, and read where they are 'common' in Australian homes. Even in cities? Or, that they hide in bed blankets, or in car visors etc. - that theyre quick, can jump far, and will cling on to you. I dont even like the name...Hunts-man. Not that I would base going or not on these creatures, but the fuss about them got me interested.

I guess Ill be completely honest and say that I am a raging arachnophobe, and the thought of them hiding in my clothes or on my chest when I **** up freaks me right the fuck out! I dont know how any of you ***** at night

Any Aussies have any experience with these things?


Otherwise, Ive narrowed my choices down to Adelaide or Melbourne, any suggestions?
