On more Newbie for the night...

Hi, thought I take the opportunity to register and quickly introduce myself after reading here for some time.

Wow, PomsinOZ, not quite me: more KrautinPomsLandbutsooninOz. But I thought after 6 years in London, hey, you might tolerate me in a Brits forum (just…). And in comparison, my fellow countrymen’s Australia forum is rather, errmm, lets not talk about it… This forum is great!

I’m a transport planner and have recently accepted an offer in Sydney. As my employer sponsors me I can come over on a 457 visa. Currently, meds are on their way to Oz and hopefully, by late May, so am I. Just in time for an Aussie winter, coming out of a wet and windy London winter.
*make note to myself: sort out timing in the future*

At the moment, I am trying to find out where to live in Sydney, what to do, what to see etc. My last visit to Sydney is about 18 years ago so one or two things might have changed… I will post some questions about Sydney suburbs, as they surely will arise, in the appropriate sub-forums.

Hiya Coffee,

Welcome to the site! You'll get answers to your questions when they arise.

Good Luck with your research.

Thanks for the welcomes!

@calNgary
The only site I found is Australien-Forum.de which deals more with travel ideas and routes. Nowhere near as much information on living in Oz/moving to Oz as on PiO.
