stockburn Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Morning All, I have recently landed my visa which as I am sure everyone on here knows is a massive relief, State sponsorship in Vic so will be looking to move to Melbourne middle of next year once I have sorted my life out. I am heading over in November for my first visit to Melbourne so after any advice on where to go and if anyone is up for meeting up for a beer and hand over much needed advice. I know it’s a pretty general message but it still feels a bit surreal at the moment, over a year of waiting then a bit of paper saying well done here is your visa, was expecting a fanfare of some sorts :biggrin: Look forward to hearing from anyone..

starlight7 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Where in Melbourne will you be working? It is a very big area unless you just mean the CBD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stockburn Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 Hello mate, Thanks for replying, my plans are still pretty fluid at the moment, I work in the IT industry with a background in finance so the CBD would be first choice and I assume have a higher chance of landing a job but the visit in November is to get a better idea of where to live and look for a job. As I said any advice would be appreciated. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PomConnie Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Hey Dave Congratulations on the visa! Must be such a relief as you say. I moved to Melbourne a year last week and when the stats say that it's in the top 5 best places to live - they're absolutely right! When you visit, def look at suburbs like Fitzroy, Richmond, Pharan, Windsor as these are the type of places where you'll probably like to live and all 5/10 mins away from the city. I always thought that I would want to live right in the city but even know it's lovely, the surrounding areas have much more personality and better places to shop, eat, drink and go out! I'm sure you have lots of questions, so feel free to ask. It's a scary move but well worth it. Am under Connie vitello on FB, if you're on that. If you turn out a psycho, I can always delete or block you,lol! Enjoy your weekend!
