Hi Scott, sorry for the delay in getting back to you following your last thread. In response to you query on other advice. I would find this difficult to answer without knowing what specific advice you require?

Hi Scott, just moved to Victoria myself with family and agree that it can be a concern when moving to somewhere unfamiliar, its only natural. The good thing I have found about Victoria is the locals are really friendly and make time to stop and chat, if you engage with them. I was quite self-cons ious at first because of all the Aussie accents around asnd it did feel a little intimidating at first. I am quite reserved person and I guess your immefiate perpective will also depend on your personaluty. I have been in Vic for three month now, I have an 8 year old son who is in school and is noww developing some good friejdships. I think the key is not to worry about how the locals may perceive you and your family as most seem friendly enough. Just be youself and embrace the culteral differences and you will have no problems. Naturally, wherever you go in the world there will be misserable people, but you can't let any negatives overshaddow the positives here. Victoria is a very positive and vibrant place and will lift your spirits, which will in turn make you want to get out and about where you are bound to begin meeting local people.
