Donelle Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Hi all you wonderful people So we have decided to make the big move and we are hoping to land in Melbourne - depending on VISA's and Jobs of course.We are excited and nervous and everything inbetween... So finding an amazingly helpful forum such as this has been a huge help.Hopefully we will be lodging our First documentation for the ICAA - received my IELTS results today and passed so just waiting for my transcript from the Uni which should arive in the next week.Looking forward to reading all the wonderful advice and sharing in our experiences.Warmest regardsD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SurferMan Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 Hmm, We may move there as well....But am fearful of the weather....We are in Perth now and love the summers and the beaches. Are there nice 'burbs near or on the water? Any advice welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 SurferMan, yes look around the bay on Google Maps, especially around the Brighton area and further down that side of the Bay, but you will have to have plenty of $'s to live there.

Donelle Posted October 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 We are soooo stoked, our 189 Visas have been granted in just 3 months from application. we are so excited, happy and extremely fortunate for such a speedy result! Now to sell the house, pack up our things and get out of here as soon as possible! With the water crisis that looks like it is far from resolved, the post office basically looking like it is bankrupt and a few other disturbing newsy titbits on government pension funds having "evaporated", both my hubby and I would like to leave at quite a speedy pace Our announcement was made to family, friends and Facebook yesterday, and we have been fortunate enough - to date - to only have support, albeit with a teary eye. Very excited to start our new adventure 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
