ecass3 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Hi all! It's been a while, but after landing in Perth on 8th April, we have been so busy either completing forms, finding a house and applying for jobs, that I've been too tired to read or even post a thread. In fact for the first month we had no wifi so all tasks had to be done via iPhone. Not good! In the first few weeks I was flat out asleep by 9pm, especially when we sat in our rental with only the contents of our suitcase! So glad the day we got our belongings & wifi-double the happiness with access to FaceTime! Still, between the tricky days, we have enjoyed fabulous days on the coast and in the Perth Hills with our boys. What an amazing place! It is certainly worth the wait & stress/worry. Still need to secure jobs, but looking positive. Next...making friends, the hardest part of all I think as there's no denying it takes time, but hey, we're here so have plenty of that now we are not jumping through hoops getting ID cards for this that & the other! Good luck to all the newbies & I'll help where I can! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our stuff arrives in 3 weeks.What area have you settle in. Hi Debs, so you decided to arrive just as the cooler weather set in too! That cold front was a bit of a shock, but it's been lovely again this last few days & it is so nice to enjoy the great outdoors. We are in Baldivis. My boys are settled into school here. Stock land is handy, but I also like how close Rockingham is when I want more choice of shops. Have you been to Serpentine falls yet? Lovely place for a walk with a view. We had a great day up there, though it's a long way up (only an hour, but felt like longer at times!) Hope you r managing ok without your stuff, I know it was hard for us. Should have stayed in the holiday rental really, but had to consider the extra cost! Let me know how you r getting on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
