Hi Friends,
Its been long since I logged into the forum... Feels good to be back to share with you all our journey so far.
We arrived at Canberra on 6th Jan,2012. Have some great friends who supported us in our initial phase, such a blessing with two young kids in tow
.
We managed to rent a nice Townhouse within 3 weeks ( but it seemed like eternity and a zillion applications for rentals!), it is located in a good suburb with good Primary school. The rent is a bit steep at $560 per week, but it helped that it is a fully furnished 3 Bedroom set up which we needed for our family so we didn't have to put down money into buying things to set up, we just moved in with our bags! :clap2:
Son who's 9 yrs started school (Year 4) in February and has settled in well , enjoying school and made some nice friends too.
We purchased a New Hyundai Accent (Demo car deal!) as we couldn't find a suitable second hand which we were comfortable with.
Husband landed a job in his line of profession two weeks ago and I have an Offer to join in a nice Uni job starting April.:clap2::clap2:
Made some nice new friends too which is an added bonus....
So things are looking good as of now, despite all the initial anxieties we still go through.
That's all for now.... shall keep the forum friends posted on how we progress....
