Cool We are coming to Adelaide!!

Hi people.

We are from Scotland, are coming to Adelaide in the next month or so. I am a nurse, and have a job organised. Just at the point of waiting for our visa now.

Would just like to say hi to you folks in Adelaide, or those of you who are going there too.

We are so excited, and can't wait to get out there. Would like to meet and chat with people in a similiar situation to ourselves. Please say HI!

Hi we too are from Scotland and will hopefully be in Adelaide by this time next year (or sooner depending on house sale).

Good luck with your move to Oz.

Hi, just wondering how did you manage to find a job. we have been in touch with an agency...is that how you did it or did you go direct to the hospitals yourself.

Any info would be great...

We would be hoping to get a house in or near glenside.

You?

We have come this far in the process for 457 visa. But we were looking at a 175. Not sure how easy it would be to change now....

Once we get over and settled we will look at this.
