Thanks for your replies... we are fully aware that jobs will have a huge deciding factor but I was thinking of looking into a number of places and looking out for jobs near those areas. We are just starting with a visa agent now to get the process started We are very excited to move and have a better life style for our family ! If our visa is accepted then we wont be moving until end of 2017 anyway and once our house sells , but i'd rather get an idea now rather than getting closer to the time and then stressing over where to start haha. That's great to know Cal , thanks x
