Emigrating to Australia!!

[kooper1980]

My wife's employer has offered her a job in Perth and our visa's have been granted today!!! Everything is moving VERY fast and we expect to leave the UK on 28th May!! Very exciting but very daunting at the same time. Never been to Australia before even for a holiday but this opportunity has just landed on our lap and these things don't come along every day. We feel extremely lucky to be given this opportunity.

Just really looking to hear peoples experiences. How did you settle in to your new country? How long did it take to really feel at home? How did you cope with missing friends and family?

One thing i am looking forward to is having somewhere for a permanent set up. I currently use an S4 and it has to be packed away every time i finish using it. I'm hoping that once i settle in Aus i find a place for a permanent set up. Hopefully 2 X1's 2 CDJ's and a decent mixer again!

Also interested to hear from any DJTT-ers who are currently living in Perth themselves. What night spots would you recommend? Where are the decent music stores?

Cheers

Jon

Emigrations skills, architecture, got friend in Austalia, Melbourne that are finding me a job, have to pass the test first
So, I'm thinking that maybe it will be after October, but is a solid decision, ASAP we'll leave Italy

I have that subject on hold. I was planning on moving in April-June but we are doing pretty well with the band, I didn't want to waste the opportunity.

Hey I think I might be the only djtt-er in Perth!! So welcome!! There's really only 3 or so main areas for nightlife and most try to avoid one of those unless you like gettin stabbed. I'm sure you'll find somewhere you like tho. I've only been here for a bit over a year so yet to find some really cool places.

And correct me if I'm wrong... But isn't it immigration
