The moving to Australia plan has really taken shape this month – meaning we now have a clearer plan of what to do and have started ticking some of it off. So here’s the monthly update (and in months to come, hopefully I can look back on this with a big sigh of relief that [...]

We leave London in 205 days on one way tickets to Sydney. After spending nearly 7,500 days in this wonderful city (yes, I cheated by using this site), there’s not a lot I haven’t done that I still want to do.

Unbelievable that next week it will have been twenty years ago that I left Sydney for London. A 6 month trip soon became a year, then 2, then 5, and now 20. But the time is right for me to bring my family to Australia [...] One thing worse than starting to write a blog is finding the time to update it regularly. I read years ago that something like 70% of blogs die within the first year. So, in a determined effort not to become one of those stats, I thought I’d update it today with my to do list so [...] |
