Born in London (Walthamstow)

I really want to live in Australia but I've noticed a lot of Brits live there a while then move again. Why is that?

If you don't mind me asking - how are you getting into Oz? (what visa?) Do you already have a job lined up? And . . .why Brisbane ?
(We're thinking about Perth - heard it's more laid back on the west coast and less crowded??)

Are you going on holiday to Florida or what?
I live in Texas (Hubby's American) but I want to live in Australia - we will probably migrate there as soon as I get my RN.

Talking re- San Fran

What do you mean the rest of the US scares you, exactly?
Just wondering. I thought California in particular would be pretty scary - they seem to get away with loads there and there's always some fairly whacky news stories coming out of CA.
(I've never been there, so I'm just going on hearsay) My brother had to stay in San Fran for 2 weeks on business last year from the UK, and he said it seemed very pretty/touristy etc, but there were beggars on many corners and drug addicts in the parks.
