Hey All,
My Name is Bradley. I am 22 and just qualified as a History Teacher.
My Partner is also 22 and has just qualified as a nurse.
She is a quarter Australian with uncles, aunties and cousins living in places such as Melbourne, Perth and Mandurah.
Since getting together 6 years ago (Young I know), She has had a desire to join the rest of her family in Australia, particularly those in Western Australia.
I have long thought a move to Australia would be great for us and we are both eager and excited to see what Australia holds for us. We are going to visit family in Perth and Mandurah for one month in the summer holidays.
I have joined this forum to seek advice. I'm sure over the coming months and years i will have a lot of questions.
But for now, seen as this is the beginning of our journey i will keep it simple.
So my questions are,
Is there a place in Western Australia for two 22 year olds with the careers we have? Obviously we are lacking in experience, will this be an issue. Both graduated with 2.1 Degrees and have jobs.
Is it financially viable? (We do not have any dependents that rely on us)
Is there much support for young people moving out to Australia?
And finally, for now, what was your experience of applying and moving to the other side of the world? Leaving Family, Visas, Finding work etc...
We are young but we are serious about moving and are really motivated. Any help and advice will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Brad.
I have for the past 5 years dreamed of a move away from this country and
