House Hunters International Season 160 Episode 11 Leaving for Love Down Under

In this episode of House Hunters International, a young couple is leaving everything behind in the United States to start a new life together in Australia. Zainab and Kevin have been in a long-distance relationship for three years, and now they are finally ready to take the big step and move in together in Melbourne.

Zainab is originally from Pakistan and has been living in the United States for the past six years, while Kevin is a born and bred Texan. The couple met through mutual friends while Zainab was studying in the U.S. and Kevin was visiting his sister who lived in the same city. They hit it off immediately and have been flying back and forth to see each other ever since.

Now, Zainab is ready to leave her corporate job in Dallas behind and start fresh in Australia, where Kevin works in finance. The couple is excited about the prospect of living in a new country and experiencing a different culture. They are also looking forward to finally living together in the same city.

The couple's budget for their new home is $700,000 AUD, which translates to around $500,000 USD. They are looking for a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with a backyard and a study. Zainab and Kevin are willing to compromise on some things, such as a smaller backyard or an older house, in order to stay within their budget.

The first house that the couple looks at is a modern townhouse in a trendy suburb of Melbourne. The house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a small backyard, and a study. Zainab and Kevin are impressed with the modern design of the house, and they like the fact that it's in a walkable neighborhood with plenty of shops and restaurants. However, the house is slightly over their budget at $720,000 AUD.

The second house that the couple looks at is a renovated Victorian-era house in an up-and-coming neighborhood. The house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large backyard, and a study. Zainab and Kevin are in love with the character of the house, with its stained-glass windows, high ceilings, and original hardwood floors. They are also excited about the potential of the neighborhood, with new cafes and restaurants opening up all the time. The house is priced at $670,000 AUD, which is just within their budget.

The third house that the couple looks at is a modern, open-plan house in a quiet suburban area. The house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a small backyard, and a study. Zainab and Kevin are impressed by the spacious feel of the house and the ease of living in a newer home. However, they are a bit concerned about the location, as it's not as close to the city as they would like. The house is priced at $690,000 AUD.

After seeing all three houses, Zainab and Kevin have a tough decision to make. They loved the character of the Victorian-era house, but they also liked the modern feel of the first and third houses. Ultimately, they decide to put an offer in on the Victorian-era house. They are excited about the potential of the up-and-coming neighborhood and can't wait to make the house their own.

Overall, this episode of House Hunters International showcases the challenges and excitement of moving to a new country for love. Zainab and Kevin are taking a big risk by leaving behind their old lives in the United States, but they both have high hopes for their future together in Australia. Their search for the perfect home showcases the diverse neighborhoods and styles of houses available in Melbourne, and ultimately, they find the perfect place to call home.
