Perth 1 week in update
First impressions are how different from England Perth ISN'T. It still rains, you can get English newspapers, bitter and Walkers crisps etc etc. Having been out East 3 years ago it is certainly less different over here.
It is a lot less congested than the UK, with the exception of shopping centre car parks. But the friendliness of the people still surprises me. We sorted a rental yesterday. It is a 4 bed, 3 bathroom in Currambine but no pool. Still we are only 5 mins from the beach. There are lots of job ads for accountants so I don't see that being a problem. We are going car hunting in a bit. I love Perth and apart from when I heard Leamington FC had made it into the first round proper of the FA Cup against the big boys I haven't had a moments doubt we have done the right thing. |

You watch others for months waiting for visas house sales etc then all of a sudden they are the other side of the world actually living the dream!! Glad you arrived safe keep us posted!! Kris xx |

Re: Perth 1 week in update
