seemelau Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 Hey guys and girls, vrou en man haha! My name is Chris and i'v recently arrived in Sydney and have successfully attained a 457. I currently work in the North Sydney region and would love to meet ex-South Africans and possibly from there, gain a broader social group. With my company being a relatively small one it is hard to relate and actually connect with people. So my goal with this is to either simply just get people to introduce themselves and then maybe meet up and become good 'mates' as they call it here or with the bigger picture of everyone gaining a bigger social network and making the transition a bit easier. Lunch, drinks,gym, movies, jokes-open to anything interesting!I personally would just like to meet more people, older or younger just to interact with so if anyone can spare a few minutes...type up a paragraph or two and introduce your beautiful self. Again this is on a South African based site but other nationalities are more than welcome.Hope to hear from you soon.Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM me and we'll get you involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sa2auz Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Hey CoyoteDo you have any idea on where you plan to settle? You will find a number of groups that get together in all areas. Upper North Shore and The Hills have big groups of Saffers and you will soon meet tons of friendly faces.S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
