Brisbane Inner Northern Suburbs
Hi There
We've been in Brisbane (Clayfield) 6 months after spending most of the last 10years in the UAE. We have found it surprisingly difficult to make friends with the locals despite having three kids (5 1/2, 3 1/2 and 18 mnths) two of which attend prep/kindy (maybe the kids are the problem!?) and have yet to meet many other expats.
We miss talking to people who understand the problems of living away from home and who are on the same wave length / enjoy the same things as us (having a few beers and the craic).
Any one out there in the same boat and like to meet up (with or without kids)?
Cheers
Jon and Julie
