I just read this thread and have to say I take my hat off to you all, so young and brave to make the move by yourselves, that is how I would like my children to be when they get to their twenties, head out and experience it and see where life takes you. Good luck to you all and hopefully you'll find a support network in each other if you ever need it.

certainly hope my kids are not looking for advice from strangers on where to live overseas whilst trying to snag a labouring job
