rpakey Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Lots of my friends and family now know that we are in the process of applying for an inde visa, one question I keep getting asked is, "what is it about Perth WA that has got you so excited about (hopefully) moving there" This is a tough one to answer, for me it has everything, but could it be just the fact that it was the first place that we landed at some 20 years ago, and fell on out feet straight away, stayed for 3.5 months instead of the 2 weeks we had planned, or something else... What is/was it about Perth (and WA) that got you so interested in the place? I'd be very interested to know other peoples thoughts...

ali Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 The climate being more Mediterranean and that it's the least populated state were attractions for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossmoyne Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Spent a couple of years doing a working holiday around Australia many years ago when younger and I always liked Perth and WA the best of all my travels. My entire family now live in Perth (well apart from my son who is currently working and living in Queensland), so it was a no brainer to come join them all. Been here nearly 25 years and it is exactly where I want to be for the rest of my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boab Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 I am returning to Perth after 20yrs back in London. I loved Perth from the moment I visited the place 26yrs ago. The weather is good and some lovely places to go and visit. Can't wait to return in October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenPen Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 The children playing freely in the parks undercover - the active lifestyle rather than sitting in front of the TV......this was just how we were when we were there with the children xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
