WelcomeIf you are new to Poms In Oz and migrating to Australia or currently living in Australia feel free to say hi to all the other either in or moving to Oz.
Just stoppin here to say hi to everyone been keeping an eye on this site for a while now as I'm off to Oz in January 09. Glad I found it, was recommended by a friend.
It's gonna be a huge help so look forward to chattin with you all
Well my brother is currently seeking citizenship and he plans to live in Melbourne which is the city he fell in love with after travelling the East coast for a year.
I have some good friends who are moving out to Perth sometime soon though and my main question is, where should I go?
I haven't been to Australia before and I have heard a lot about both locations. I am planning to find work asap when I arrive and I work in IT/Computer support.
I have heard Perth is booming at the moment and still growing rapidly, I also hear the fishing is great there (I am a fisherman) but, my brother is trying to persuade me that Melbourne is the place to be.
As far as work is concerned, I am starting to think that maybe Perth would be better for me ??
Everyone is suited to a different lifestyle but the only thing I have become aware of after reading many people's opinions is that Perth and surrounds are more geared up to a lifestyle for families. I don't doubt this will be disputed by many singletons but it's only my own assumption. Melbourne seems to have more for a wider group of people.
Good luck deciding.
Kate
