Dear all,
I'm new to Australia (though I've visited many times), having come here from London in November. I'm here with my long-term girlfriend (who has dual British-Aus nationality) and we're both working in decent jobs.
And ... after 3 months, I feel like I'm dying of boredom!
We're living in a very central eastern suburb of Sydney, so I feel like this is kind of as good as it gets.
For the record, I'm not a London Chauvinist - I don't believe it's better than everywhere else, or any of that nonsense - so I'm not interested in a detailed debate of London vs Sydney.
I'm just stunned at how dull Sydney is - and whether any other expats, from anywhere in the UK, also feel like this.
In fact, I spent a year in Norwich (at UEA) and I feel like there's more to do in Alan Partridge's home town (ah-haaa!) than there is in so-called 'happening' Sydney.
Yes, I'm clearly a whingeing Pom, but surely there's a lot to whinge about (right?)
Help!
