Hi all thought I should introduce myself although I have already met some of you:wink:. My name is Jo I'm married to my husband Tristan and two girls Ellie 11 and lucie 4 . We thought about moving to oz about 6 years ago but had the bad new that my husband had thyroid cancers a very aggressive type where he needed radical neck dicetions that have left him with reminding scars but without them he would be here today . And now has recently lost both of his parents life's to short .

So the thought is back on we feel we need to change/ better our life for us and our girls but how do you know it's the right decision that's the problem i have .

Hes a bricklayer and also was a lecturer for 5 years so don't think we would have a problem with that . Just have all these emotions at the mo trying to think it all through , any advise would be great thanks for reading :rolleyes:

It is impossible to say if it would be the right decision for you. The only way to know is to try it.

 

What I would say is that it would be a change of life, but not necessarily better. Oz is not some heaven. It is just another first world country. Most people don't find there life is better. Just different.

+1 - If you have the money and skills, why not give it a go? It will be a change of scenery and you could always come for a short time and not burn any bridges. One thing you have to watch for is your eldest girl's age - Once they're established in secondary education it becomes far more difficult to move. We are heading the other way soon, but although Oz is not for me long term, I am very glad I had the experience - and as you say, life is short!
