Hello

[Phatgecko]

Hi All

I just wanted to say hello to everyone, my name is Paul and im 28 from London.
Ive accepted a job from a company in Sydney and my Visa has been confirmed so I will be heading down under to Sydney in April.
I just wanted to see if any one has any advice on things I defo need to make sure I tie up here in the UK before I leave and what things I need to do first off (paperwork,legal etc) in Australia. Any advice would be great.

Also I think I am gonna be looking to move somewhere around North Sydney/Crows Nest area so if anyone lives in this area, it would be good to speak with you about your experience living here.

Looking forward to making some new friends and hearing other peoples experiences.

L8rs all
Paul

Hey Again

After some researching online I found this site:

Britons living abroad : Directgov

It gives tips on what to do when leaving the UK and living abroad - hope others find it useful too.
