2 months in Melbourne
 

Hi everyone, not been on the site for a while, but wanted everyone to know my experiences so far since leaving the UK to live in Melbourne.
My wife has had a terrible time in securing employment, everyone wants her to work for a trial period without any pay!!!! i think not.
I'm currently working in a secondary school and it's very different to the one that i left in the UK.
Lifestyle here is very relaxed, loads to see and do, we brought all our furniture over with Pickfords (excellent service) even the TV works (tuned in through video).
Loads more to tell, but off to teach some aussie kids how to play soccer.
Have a good day

Good that some decent things are happening - Soccer :)

What does your wife do, maybe the people on here can offer some advice?

Hope all keeps getting better.
