Guest guest30085 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 ARE YOU BEING SERIOUS...:eek:...YOU THOUGHT PERTH WAS INSPIRING AND INTERESTING ENOUGH FOR A YOUNG PERSON TO SPEND THE REST OF THEIR LIVES THERE.. Until you have actual experience of even visiting Perth then I will always see the tongue firmly in your cheek I have six cousins in Perth aged between 22 and 30 .... none of them have left to live anywhere else. Neither have most of their friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly could not imagine spending the rest of my life in such an isolated city as perth :eek: if thats what suits them then who am I to argue....I need far more stimulation in my life.

Perthbum Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Like I've said before.. I don't imagine that many young people flock towards Stratford upon Avon either. To be fair I've never been yet but it doesn't look very exciting from what I've saw online stratford is not isolated like perth dear.....slaps forehead...

So Stratford doesn't offer you any excitement, you have to go elsewhere (other countries even) I always thought you lived in Utopia enjoy PB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasepom Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Perth does have some nice suburbs though and Fremantle is lovely. Then there's the Margaret River area to explore too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of the reasons we're contemplating moving back, at least for a while. We live in Sydney which is less isolated than Perth, but after 30+ years, I've visited everything there is to visit umpteen times. We're not beach people. I was never bored in Sydney while I was working (because in Sydney, working hours are long so there is no spare time!) - but now I'm semi-retired, I am. Yes we can go to the pub in the evening but what to do during the day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Que Sera Sera Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Out of interest Que Sera Sera, did you use a removals company and if so were they ok? We didn't ship furniture just 6 boxes, a TV, Tools and bikes. Its a bit of a story but because of their stupidity they took nearly 6 months ,but don't worry the company folded not long after so you won't accidently use them.

Que Sera Sera Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Bristol V Perth? Both beautiful cities ( I've had the honour of living in both? ) could give advise from genuine experience, oh my daughters live in Brisbane I visit there often too!:wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starlight7 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Bristol is lovely and I think it would be hard to choose between that and Perth- different things are good with each. Perth certainly can be boring unless you are in with the crowd- not so good for visitors once you've 'done' the sights. I guess we all tend to prefer our own little part of the world. I don't think I could live in Sydney, either- seems too big and impersonal and somehow lacks the vibe that good old Melbourne has- though that may well be because I don't know it that well.
