But if you could only offer ONE piece of advice to anyone who is due to arrive in Australia what would it be? Lets not fight over what each person offers, just give your tip and move on ;) Do Not set yourselves up for a fall......you are not going to get it all right in a short period of time (about two years anything less is honeymoon) nor has Aus got everything to offer in every respect - you and only you can make a difference. |

I think thats about right. Denise try to get theat career job if you need it before you come, if you have mummy and daddy, or a husband or wife is made, you will love it,,as your arse is already wiped and your not burdened with the everday bullshiy. 2 years is right for the working class scum, as its all about about building up connections and links again, and its one hell of a party once you start. |

Sorry someone had to and it might as well have been me !! |
Re: One piece of advice
Try to go out and make new friends when you first get out there once you settle down, it really helps in the long run, I have live aboard, and I wished somebody advice us, suddenly you feel so lonely if you havent made any friends you feel even lonelier.

Re: One piece of advice
Assume nothing! Then Enjoy, relax and embrace ... it is different and far away from everything you know, so get to know it!
