Making the move
just wanted to know if everybody who has emigrated visited Australia before they made the move and if so how many areas did you look at?
got family in NT who we will hopefully be visiting in Aug. this year but can't really afford to visit a lot of other states.

Re: Making the move
We haven't been to Australia before, but are planning on going on a reccie to Melbourne and possibly Brisbane or Perth(depending if OH can get the time off work)in October. I can give you an update on that after we have been, but in the meantime have a look at a couple of threads on this site. "Visa validation trip" by Izzie describes her trip to Sydney and Perth and on the update forum Three years in Melbourne is a good thread to read. I'm sure there is one in there for Brisbane, but can't remember what it's called.
Unfortunately I can't give you the links to these as I don't know how to do it.
