Good morning, welcome to Australia. I live on the Gold Coast which is a 45 minute to an drive south from Brissy depending where you live. If you ever come to the Coast or we could meet half way as id love to catch up with you guys and talk about your experiences. My husband and I are thinking of moving overseas and would love some tips and discuss challenges you may have come across. Lee
