Smile What job will you be doing in OZ- lets share!!

Hi all, just thought it would be intereting to see what we all will be doing workwise when in OZ....

Me- At the moment in this country I work for education dept with female teenagers who may have lost their way a little...
When in oz I am hoping to find something similar but havent a clue where to start looking so so going to wait til we get there.

Hubby- he is Joiner and is hoping to do the same in Oz

I am a sheet metal worker and hope to do the same in Melbourne. My only wish is that I don't work with as many a*seholes as I did at my previous workplace.

Hi Debbie,

As far as your aromatherapy is concerned, can I please ask who you are registered with and what they have said you need to do to ratify your qualification in Australia to enable you to practise? I'm curious as to what others are being told by governing bodies.
