Argentine woman in Australia says couple earns 20,000 Australian dollars a month and buys motorhome

Camila Maggi, an Argentine who emigrated to Australia, said on TikTok that she and her partner earn about 20,000 Australian dollars a month. She said they bought a motorhome after a month of work, as well as an iPhone 16, an iPad Pro and two MacBook Pros. She noted that while salaries in Australia are four to ten times higher than in Argentina or Spain, prices for goods and services are not proportionally higher. To work on a Working Holiday visa (Subclass 417), Argentines must be aged 18 to 30, have a valid passport, at least 5,000 Australian dollars in funds, a return ticket, medical insurance, and a police clearance certificate.
