Good advice – Don’t burn your bridges with the UK
Don’t burn your bridges as Oz ain’t all milk and honey.
I’ve been here a long time and I can think of a dozen places I (personally) would rather live… including Blighty.
It all depends what sort of person you are. For some folks Oz is ideal. For me it stinks.
* If you like to talk about nothing but footy, beer and cars, and practically nothing else; if you like nothing but BBqs for entertainment and social interaction, you’ll love the place. (A gross generalization for sure, but not far wrong)
* If you are fond of culture, history, diverse forms of entertainment and pastimes, proximity to Europe, you will seriously miss home.
* A lot of the social ills of the UK are also present in Oz, it’s just a bit more spreadout.
Like I said, a certain sort of Pom really likes it here, many go back, and many more stay but really miss the UK.
Oz used to be a much easier country to be poor in than the UK. That is changing very rapidly
