Hi guys,
i have just landed myself a job in toowoomba qld and am aiming to get myself over in around 4 months. Im gonna be coming on my own ready to start a new life and would like some advice over the coming months on many aspects of the move.
Firstly ill tell you about myself... Im a 25 year old car mechanic from manchester. I was working over in oz back in 2010 for 7 months living in melbourne then brisbane, much prefered brisbane. My intentions this time are hopefully to return back to the uk for holidays only, this is make or break for me and im looking forward to the challenge so much.
My first query is the most important, where to live? Im going to be earning around $75000+ and will be looking to rent in the short term so i would like to know the best areas in terms of price, location, amenaties etc. Dont want to be living in any run down/dodgy part of town. Being young and single id like to be somewhere with plenty of lively and vibrant bars/resteraunts so i can go out, have fun and make some friends. Also im a keen football fan/player and so a local team to get involved with is key as it helped my integrate and meet lots of new people when i was last over.
I'll leave it at that for now as im starting to ramble. Any help/info or just a friendly hello would be greatly appreciated. Ill stop by regularly and add to this post as and when i think of anything, cheers for your time.
Dave
