Am I weird?
Whilst driving around this afternoon thinking about the meaning of life and other trivial subjects, I started to think about why I really want to live in Australia.
I thought about the usual reasons - weather, mortgage-free, nice house, better start for the kids, using the barbeque more than once a year, putting as many miles as posible between me and the Mother in Law, when suddenly it hit me!! (no not another car!!!)
I honestly feel it is a calling - I am just destined to live in Oz!!
I am a strong believer in fate and for some reason fate has dealt me the "You're living in Oz " card!!
Has anyone else felt this or am I the only weirdo on here? (If it is just me then it looks like I could be heading for Byron Bay rather than Brisbane!!)

If you smoke lots of drugs and wear hippy clothing you will fit in just fine.

I have to agree. I ALWAYS new Oz was for me / my family, and after a holiday there it just confirmed it! Me and the missus both felt very much at home when we was there, even tho we'd only been there for a few weeks! ...

Re: Am I weird?
couldnt agree more, we are quite comfortable here, we live in a lovely villiage in wales, nice house e.t.c. !!!!!!but!!!!!! we have always wanted to move to oz. dont know why, really i dont. but for the last 14 years we have spoke about it off and on regularly. finally we are actively seeking to make the dream a reality, we will go next year (hopefully) and do you know what, it cant come quick enough. my heart and my head agree on one thing (oz is for us) !!!!!
