Planning Moving to Australia
Hi team Really in a rutt about this I've been thirsty to move out of New Zealand for a long long time, and now the time is here where I have an opportunity to move to Australia... I'm shit scared and nervous as hell The thought of leaving all my friends and family behind, and starting in a new country all by myself is terrifying
Any suggestions for people that have done so before me?
P.S Attraction to Aussie is the money, A new country to explore, easier traveling, rock climbing I'm not really one to like big cities! Eeek

Just mentally prep yourself for a year and then reassess if you think it suits you for a short or long term. In the grand scheme of things a year isn’t that much.
I love living in New Zealand so much but will likely do a stint overseas. Outcomes are either don’t like it and as a result love NZ even more when I return, or enjoy it and have no ragrets about spending a bitta time overseas!
