I think anyone who moves to another country on their own is very brave. Me and the Bloke have both said we couldnt do it without each other.
I hope you meet lots of fab people on your travels!!!

Hi Steve,
I'm moving to Melbourne on my own as soon as I get my visa, hopefully in March/April.

I'm not looking forward to be alone. I couldn't live on my in Oxford for three weeks, living half-way across the world on my own with people I don't know for a few months is going to be a bigger challenge, but needless to say I need to grow up at some point!

Think of it as a great opportunity... I came over to Australia on my own (already had some family migrated over previously) and am now engaged to a beautiful lass I met over here... This has all been within the first year of having arrived..
If you can make the most of being un-encumbered to go out and meet people and travel around at the weekends. There are a lot of friendly people out here.
good luck

Hi all,
On my own and looking forward to it.
I see it as a chance that some don't get as a family.
Look around OZ with open eyes, and clear mind, not constantly tring to justify your choices to someone maybe not 100% with you, if you know what I mean ??
Good luck to everyone, especially on this thread.
