About

I grew up in Cape Town, South Africa - a beautiful part of the world. But from a young age, I always had this yearning to get to Australia (I had family in Oz). I got a little closer to realising my dream when I met my husband who had the same dream. It took us a few years, but we made it!!! We arrived in Sydney, Australia on the 25th of February 2008. This will probably sound strange, but we both feel like we've come home. We couldn't be happier and are making a big effort to adopt our new country's ways. We even support the Wallabies!!! Sadly, in Feb 2009 we had to move to Brisbane for work. Missing my home on Sydney's Northern Beaches. Hoping to be able to move back there within the next couple of years.
Interests: reading, mountain biking, music, writing, Exploring new places, walking, cooking,

Living in Sydney by Julien

Hi, Let's share our experience about Sydney! What do you think about this city? The way of life in Sydney looks very good. Is it true or not? Is it easy to find a job when you're coming from abroad? How complicated is it to find a flat? Thanks ...

Hi Christine Artarmon is on the North Shore train line so my advice would be to look further north from this. There are some fabulous suburbs along the line - we presently stay in Wahroonga which is beautiful - very leafy & a very "well-to-do" ... Read More

Sydney is amazing!!!!!! I moved here 6 months ago from Cape Town, South Africa. To begin with, I was incredibly intimidated. This place is ENORMOUS compared to Cape Town!!!! It was really overwhelming. But hubby & I acted like complete tourists ... Read More
