Hi,

Have been offered a job for 2 years in Melbourne that would mean leaving my family behind and taking a bold step into the unknown am a single mum with grown up children and a 22year old who does not want to come with me, and thinks I should stay home and keep her lifestyle afloat. Will miss them all madly. but perhaps its time to let them have a go at life without me running after them

Its just so scary but there is a big part of me that wants to go and give it a chance.

I know exactly 2 people in Australia and am going through the forum looking to see if I will cope, like the lifestlye and fit in. and if anyone will speak to me.

Welcome aboard jan :)

It does seem scary going to the other side of the world on your own but Im sure you will love it out there!

Youve got a bit of a head start as you know 2 people out there who im sure will be willing to help you settle.

As for me i dont know any one :eek::eek: but it still doesnt scare me (to much)

Keep us all posted on how your getting along and ongrats on becoming an offical TOLTER
