Dereks Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 Hi allMy wife Sandy and myself arrived in Perth on the 24th Feb 2007. We did not have an opportunity to visit before so everything is very new to us. My wife managed a transfer with her company so we are on an employer sponsored 457 visa. I fortunately have no limitations on the visa so I am currently looking for employment. Perth is a beautiful city so I wish I had more time to do the tourist thing!Looking forward to the interaction on the forum and to hopefully meeting some of you in the near future.We are currently staying with Sandy's brother and sister in law in Bull Creek but are looking for a rental at present.Speak soonDerek & Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
