Mildura - anybody up there?
Hello all,
Not been on here in ages since we actually got the Visa - stuff has moved on now though....
My wife and I are moving to Mildura at the end of the year. Have found a few threads on here where people mention it, but I didn't know if anyone is living up there.... Any one?
Visited at Christmas - would just be good to make some contacts...
Thanks!

Hi
Been in Mildura for about 8 months. What a beautiful place and full of very friendly and helpful people. Unfortunately i could not secure my exact type of work so i moved on to WA a month and half ago.
I now regard Mildura as my base in Australia as i made a lot of friends. Have a fabulous stay.

We moved to Mildura last September and we love it.
We have bought a house and are moving into it in 2 weeks (you get a lot more house for your money here which takes some of the sting out of the crap exchange rate!!), our two girls are really settled in their new schools and both my wife and I have secured reasonably good jobs.
We have met some really great people, both pom's and ozzie's and there is loads to do to keep the family entertained.
Let me know if you need any info etc.....

Fab - someone is there! What made you pick Mildura? We've been a few time to Melbourne and couldn't quite see us living there. Went up to Mildura over Christmas and felt it is the right place for us.
Thanks for offer of info - I'm sure I'll take it up over the coming months!

It's by no means perfect up here but, hey, where is?

Re: Mildura - anybody up there?
Not perfect - our first impression is where do we get clothes etc - no David Jones, Myers etc... but even in a fortnight it grew on us...
