| Our last family photo in front of our apartment. On our way to the airport. 3 July 2011 |
When we first considered moving to the UK I wondered if having a second expat experience would in some way diminish my memories of Australia. I can now answer definitively-no, it will not. No matter how many places I live or how much I travel, I will always look back on our time in Australia as sort of magical.
It really is a "Lucky Country" and I feel lucky to have called it home for over two years.

You may remember me from a comment a few months back. I stumbled upon your blog when my family was given the option of an expat experience in Sydney. Hours and hours of reading your blog convinced me that we had to go. Well, we did it! I just finished my first week in Oz! We are renting a home in Killara. We got here just in time to see the New Year's Eve fireworks. We've already spent a day at the beach and we spent most of today in Darling Harbor. It is not easy getting settled in (getting a car, getting appliances and rental furniture, getting a phone...), but we are getting there. This place is amazing and I don't know if we would have made this choice without you. Thank you for your blog!
Laurie,
Thanks for your comment. I'm so glad you decided to give Australia a go. All the hassle of getting settled will be worth it. And you've arrived at the perfect time of year to enjoy beautiful Sydney. When you feel frustrated by the slow service or the "she'll be right attitude" just remind yourself- YOU"RE IN AUSTRALIA! Enjoy it! xxx
We miss you too! And now, my time has come to say goodbye as well. I will always look back fondly on my time in this fabulous place...
