Cheryl Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 HiWe will be arriving in Melbourne on the evening of 3 July 2006.We have lived in PE all our lives, so the thought of moving to this huge city is quite nerve-wracking! We have two girls aged 11 and 6.Any tips will be appreciated.CHERYL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheryl Posted June 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 Hello!We have leased a furnished apartment in St. Kilda for the first week. A couple who are currently in South Africa on holiday have offered to fetch us from the airport. We are meeting the couple for the first time this weekend.We were "packing for Perth" when I received a job offer in Melbourne. Now we are heading off to Melbourne.Apart from an old school friend I last saw 20 years ago and an ex-colleague, we don't know anyone in Melbourne.Are there any get-togethers for South Africans in Melbourne?CheersCHERYL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 Hi CherylI am glad to see that you are sorted out with accommodation and with somebody to meet you. Once you are here, if you email me, then we can arrange to meet and I will be happy to introduce you around. I am sure there must be get togethers for SA's in Melbourne, I have just not come across them yet! We are planning something for when the summer months are here again!
