Been to Australia, its ok, if you don't mind monoculture, constant heat, water shortages, lack of history, it does have its good spots, just not for me, lol, that said, if you do go, go to the South East, more things to see and do, Adelaide, Melbourne, Sidney and there abouts, mind thats where it pricey too, hence higher wages

I prefered being able to go to Europe, USA and Canada for my breaks, different culture on less than 4 hours flight away, shed loads of history.

I would love to go to the aus for a year or so. I take it you would have to apply for a visa before you even apply for the aussie post?

[NWpostie]

Of course, you will need a visa, usually an Employment visa, if you immigrate, its a different visa entirely, go to http://www.immi.gov.au/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
