Finally got my Visa though today... Omg the worst part is waiting !!!

So this Singleton is another one that is arriving not knowing a single soul. But I'm ready to start a 2 year course in Melbourne & meet who ever's out there!

Good luck to everyone

Hi Miss M

Definitely keen to meet up. Im happy to meet up with as many people as I can. its going to be pretty scary. What job are you going to do over there and when are you hoping to be there by. it cant come soon enough for me, I just want to get over there. the more I wait the more time i have to think "am i doing the right thing" I want to get the goodbyes over and done with and start enjoying myself over there, with a bit of luck anyway.
If you get there before me and need any contacts, let me know. LIke I said, my aunty lives in Mundingburra and is a mad scouser which inevitably means she has a million friends and is a social butterfly !! She is a midwife at Townsville hospital so has made loads of mates through that.

Good luck
Helen

Im close to my UK family and have lots of UK mates so Im not trying to run away from anything but have visited Oz several times, once in Brisbane for 18 months and decided that QLD is where i want to be.

Anyone else a billy no mates ??

Helen
Hey Helen,

Woohoo, im not the only billy no mates! I moved out to Brisbane in March, although im not a total loner as ive got family here who I am staying with until I get my own place! Loving it so far! Give me a shout if you are moving to Brisbane, would be great to get to know a few more people!

Hey

I've been in Melbourne for 6 months after coming over on my own. I'm doing a 2 year course on a student visa. It has been hard but as the months go byit seems to get easier as you get to no more and more people.

Hi Helen,
I'm a 25 yr old singleton moving out to Oz in November this year. I'm a bit scared as I'm moving out there alone and trying to find work etc, I agree it is all a bit daunting. Are you already there?
