Re: Baby with Aus passport only

Re: Job Offer in Sydney Australia

Spot on.

We moan about the cost of living and rental costs here for bang ordinary places (but near the beach). But ultimately for most it's family that draws you home.

Baby with Aus passport only

Can't quite seem to find a definitive answer on this one so thought I'd throw it out.
