Default Leaving Today ...

We are leaving for Perth today via Singapore.

It's been an emotional rollercoaster and that is a massive understatement.

We are leaving dearest families and friends behind and the goodbyes have been tougher than we ever imagined. The faces of our families and friends as they waved goodbye to their Godson's / Grandchildren / Nephews etc were filled with sadness and heartache.

The messages were of envy and well wishes for our future together in our new life.

We told them we are 18 hours and £500 pound away, we have Email, cheap calls, webcams etc etc ...

To everyone going or thinking of going, the toughest bit is getting on that plane.

Good luck to all.

Three Legs

PS - See all the Perthites on the 5th !!!

Im on the oposite end of the process !! I applied to move via a skilled visa. My results for my TRA are over-due, should be here this week. Reading your post gives me hope as already leaving my life on my own gives me alot of mind games.

Im aiming for Perth as I have a friend there in the same line of work. How long did it take you from start to finish to be accepted ??

All the best !!

It was the hardest thing for us also to leave our families but just remember they are only a flight away.
I want to wish a very safe and happy journey
