Preface

More people than ever are contemplating living and working in Australia and who can blame them? Gorgeous weather, stunning landscapes and a booming economy are just a few of its attractions. The wealth of television programmes dedicated to this topic has stimulated many to consider an escape from one (tedious) lifestyle to another (idyllic) lifstyle. However, there is a lack of truly useful and practical information available to those planning to make this move. This became apparent to me when I packed my bags and left the UK to start a new life in Australia three years ago.

This book was written from personal experience in the hope that it will provide you with up-to-date crucial information which will help you navigate your way through the complex aspects of living and working in Australia. It is a truly amazing country and offers a lifestyle that is the envy of countries around the world. The trick is to match your needs with the correct city and ensure that there is a job for you when you get all the way there! I hope that my book makes the relocation process a pleasurable one for you as it certainly will be a memorable one.

I would like to thank my husband Kenan for following me to the other side of the world because I was tired of London! Not to mention his constant support in writing this book and in looking forward to our next adventure. America next?! I would also have been lost without the help of my lovely girlfriend Bunsy who spent many evenings correcting my spelling and grammar, not to mention allowing me to use her incredible photographs. I still owe you a bottle. Thanks also to my best chum Lisa who was the driving force behind ‘project fantastic’ which lived up to its name.
