scoon101 Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Well guys, 2nd Nov 2011, 11am walking out into the Perth skyline for the first time. Mouthful of flies and a stomach full of butterflies. This is it! our new start our second change at life. 2nd Nov 2013, 11am Just pulled the top off the Spa, Dogs chilling in the yard, Creek running gently in the background A cold one in a stubby holder. Sitting in our own newly built house with great neighbours to the sides and great wildlife to the back. 2 years on...Was it worth the uplift, worry and money??? OH YEAH every bit of it! OK we've had a few problems along the way, but as you guys know it takes special type of people to pack up and travel half way round the world and start over. Bring on the next 2 years!

ashleymhale Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Fantastic post. Very encouraging to people who are just starting the process or for people like ourselves who will arrive later this month. Reading a positive post like this helps settle those doubts and nerves and makes us focus on the reasons we are making the move. You are right it takes a certain type of person to move to the other side of the world and we do it for all the right reasons. Thanks for posting.

scoon101 Posted November 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 Thanks for replying guys, Are we Lucky to be living here in this great country?, To be honest NO It's been a lot of hard work, dedication, tears, worry and dancing to whatever tune the piper calls. Do we feel Lucky to be living in this great country? Hell YEAH! We still wake up to the chirps of the Kookaburras in the reserve behind our house and smile at each other.
