petroltimer Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Hi, I've read a good few of these threads about people getting homesick. My own situation is my girlfriend was homesick from the moment the plane left London, after 4 months I loved Sydney but no mater what I tried I could not get my girlfriend settle. She had a job arranged and new school friends living in Sydney, I had no job and no friends and settled from day one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petroltimer Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 ya i'm back home now, my girlfriend got a job as a nurse on the 457 visa so as many of you know it took 7-8 months to get so she was all enthusiastic to start, but I honestly think it was not helped by her friends we had nothing but going away parties for the last month and then when in Sydney they did not give her a rest with constant phone calls, Skype and facebook. I've heard many say modern technology helps with homesickness but I think it can also be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
