Pay it forward........
I am a 40+ mum of a two year old who has recently arrived in Brisbane CBD.
I am originally from London but have spent the last five years in Hong Kong. When I arrived In Hong Kong a very good friend took me under her wing and showed me around + shared her knowledge.
After a couple of years I was no longer a "newbie" and I knew how hard it was for people who had just arrived to be away from all their friends and family so I would take them under my wing and show them around / be at the end of the phone ect....
At one time or another you were new to Australia and you know how it can feel to be isolated.
I am now the "newbie" again and I am looking for a wing, in return I promise to "pay it forward".
Do you want to join the pay it forward club? Knowledge is a powerful thing and if you can help just one person to settle in here in OZ, I am sure the saying "what goes around, comes around" will find its way to you..
Thanks for taking the time to read my thread.
