I'm just starting the visa application process but I would be in Australia tomorrow if I could. :) I'm new on here so I just wanted to say HI!

Hi LauraKat and welcome to Expat.com!

How is going the visa process?

Why have you choose Australia?;)

Hope to hear you soon,
Harmonie.:)

The visa process is going very well so far thanks for asking! The only obstacle I have run into so far is my lack of work experience in my profession because I just graduated from my master's program. I have asked immigration if my internship hours can count toward my skilled work experience and I am waiting to hear back. I plan to immigrate alone so the process is a little easier for me but it is still very complicated.

I choose Australia because it is a place where social workers are needed and valued. I visited some time ago and I have always wanted to return permanently. I love the attitude of the people there and how accepting they are of many cultures. I also like that they seem to be friendly and open minded.

Australia seems like a place that I could be very happy.

What about you? Do you live in Australia?

Thank you for your post LauraKat!

I'm not in Australia.;)

But I'm sure that there are others who are also starting visa process, just like you.:)

Good luck,
Harmonie from Expat.com Team.
