weaver Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Just dropped in to say hello. I am hoping to move to stay with my daughter and son-in-law in Perth eventually. i have already visited once for a holiday and loved it. Are there any other pensioners who have moved to Perth and how are they enjoying life there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have actually seen parents spend $40k and then decide it is not for them after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be returning for another trip at the end of the year when I'll be discussing it all with my daughter and son-in-law. I agree the price is horrendous. I am also a bit daunted by the amount of research that I need to do. I keep getting lost on the government site and having to start over again. There seem so many things to pay attention to. But as I see on here, many of you have managed very well, so it's obviously just a case of getting organised. I was hoping other retired people who have settled in Perth could tell me how they are enjoying life there. I did notice that it seems to be a very young city Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
