Hi we are in Perth too. You will upset a lot of expats criticising some of the new towns. Where abouts in Perth are you and what on earth would an 18 yr old perth Girl want to be doing posting to a load of brit expats?

Fuzzyness

if shes lived there for 18 years she can provide a different take on the place. a non-expat perspective for example. it provides a constrast for those intending on moving there. criticising isnt that helpful but if thats her opinion it should be taken as that. i mean if an aussie expat asked for your opinion on your old home town you would be able to say which were the nice parts and where you would want to live if you were to go there wouldnt you.

I personnally found mindarie just a`little`too far out of city, but, hey, this is a personal opinion!

Fuzzyness

i think that is what everyone on here should bear in mind when they ask for opinions on what a place is like. what one person thought of an area or town is going to depend on what thye wanted from it in the first place. how can that ever be the same. i think the only way you ever know what an area is like is by either living in it or visiting it. not great when you live half way round the world. so i guess personal opinions have to be taken into account when investigating whether to even look at those areas in the first place.

Too ****ing bad. I'm not going to change how I feel about certain areas of a place where I have lived my entire life because some expats will get their panties in a twist. People who get upset about my opinions should eat their elbow.

As I've just said, I've lived here my entire life. Therefore, I am in a great position to help people who would like to live or visit here. I've had recent experiences of both private and state primary and secondary schools, plus I now attend university and know WA universities pretty well as well.

I live in Perth. That's all you need to know. Feel free to make an educated guess that I don't live in the new northern suburbs.

I'm also a loving and caring person who likes to help people!!!

Why do you care?

Summary:
Joondalup is a hole.
Most of the new northern suburbs are holes.
I don't care what people think of my opinions.
I've lived in Perth my entire life.
I know Perth well.
I like helping people

Jirrupin isn't the type to critisice your opinions. And she didn't either. She was just remarking about that some people probably will (maybe).
And I'm also curious about why you're on here? Not that we mind, we're jsut very curious people!!

Simone

Yeah, ok!
I guess we were just wondering if you've got a british background or maybe thinking of migrating yourself?

Simone

Another thing: I think it's great! I think you could give lots of advice! Especially maybe for us younger people without children!

I also like to help where I can, but my experiences are a little less recent (see my signature and profile for details).
So, which suburb do you live in?
And what course are you doing at which uni?
(As I said, I'm verrrry curious! )

I was born in Perth. My father is Greek/Australian and from an Greek immigrant family, my mother moved from Canada to be with my dad, and she is from a Ukrainian and Polish immigrant family. I will be leaving Perth ASAP after I finish my uni degree.

1. I can't tell you where I live. I have to keep some part of myself a mystery
2. I will be starting my second year of my computer science degree.

If you guess the university I attend in the first try, I will send you a packet of Hob Nobs as a welcoming present when you arrive in Perth

Fuzzyness

i def think your experiences would be very useful for those who arent married and dont have children. i mean where are the good bars and places to go, good clothes shops etc. i know for some good schools and a nice place to live is probably more important but for me finding out what the place has to offer is more important and i think having a younger poster doing that is a far greater benefit than a hindrance.

Simone

Right! Ok then!
I guess UWA?
I could look it up by looking a the courses, but can't be bothered
What are Hob Nobs? Never heard of them? Are they new?

Fuzzyness

HOb nobs are a british thing. a type of biscuit made out of oats.
