I think that in so many ways it’s a no brainer moving to Oz. I’m from Oz originally and my hubby is a dr and has job in Mackay. And yeah have been imagining that being the case re the weather but ultimately it’s cold here for 6mths of the year and we’re inside with central heating.
There has been lots of good things about living here but life is def different as a family, working flat out, an hour plus commute each way on the tube etc which sort of limits the access to what is great about living here.
I do think you’re right kids are adaptable and ultimately it will be good for them to have to deal with a change. It’s really reassuring to hear your view on kids from this neck of the woods settling in and being happy. I feel really positive about moving to Mackay. I do have my moments though when I see the kids happy with their friends etc and wonder if it’s right for them, moving that is. However for us all there’s no qu that family life would be better.
Great to hear that Mackay's on the up I have of course scoured the internet and see there is major works on the ring road (?) and there’s lots of positive comments etc on Mackay.
Thanks for taking the time to message back
