Default moving to oz

We are currently waiting our visa to enable us to move to oz next year around july time. At first we were thinking about adelaide but now seem to think bisbane is a better choice. We have a year to prepare and just wondered if anyone and enlight us with regard to the area we choose

Welcome to the forum... We are off to visit both Brisbane and Adelaide in 3 weeks time...could let you know our views then if thats any good? But from the things I've read it's all down to personnel choice. Are you not going to visit OZ first yourselves?.....

We are like you taking the risk life too short and if don't do it now never will. An particular reason why you choose Brisbane - Is it the work?

No never been before this will be our first trip...but between here and 'Adbrits' not many people have a bad thing to say about OZ... moms cousin who lives on the Gold Coast says the motto there is 'Beautiful one day, perfect the next'.... so it sounds alright to me... C x
