MissionMelbourne Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Hi everyone, My name is Marc and my OH is April and we are coming to Melbourne for a reccie around the end of march and it would be great to meet up with another couple that has made the jump. I'm 28 and my OH is 24, I'm an electrician and she works for a government organisation as a supervisor. We are staying in the Southbank area and will be renting a car so if we need to travel out to somewhere a little closer to you that's totally cool! Would be great to have a chat everything Melbourne and it would be brilliant for my Mrs to meet some people and hear first hand accounts as she's not totally sold on the move, thanks very much, feel free to contact me privately, I'll buy the first round of drinks!! Look forward to meeting you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look forward to meeting you! We've did a reccie last year to Mellie*. Helped us immensely in our decision making process I'm sure you will meet up with someone likeminded. We're not over proper ourselves until November 2017 (...is that grammatically correct?) Enjoy! B *Not everyone calls it Mellie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atlas Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Have fun on your reccie and hopefully it's helpful! We have been here coming up to two months and are based in South Yarra, but work in Docklands. Happy to meet up and answer any questions re the logistics of moving etc as it's still pretty fresh in our minds haha. I'm 27 and my husband is 35, we are both accountants - feel free to message me if you're keen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lcsparks Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 (edited) HI Marc. Just seen your messages. How did the move go? I'm an electrician too in Melbourne staying in south bank. But still not yet a sparky. Too much to convert over here. Cheers Edited April 4, 2017 by Lcsparks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Single 37 year bloke initially staying in Brunswick until I find my own place, anyone on here with advice, suggestions of where to live ( want to stay close to the CBD) or if anyone is arranging a meet I would appreciate it.
