Hello. I'm Lionel. Would like to welcome you & your husband to Melbourne. I am originally from South Africa. I came to Australia in 1974. My wife is Filipino. She came to Australia in 2003 from Dublin, Ireland. She , like yourself, is a nurse. Melbourne has a huge Filipino population. Sounds like you don't really have many family/friend connections here. Our contact details are: **** Fell free to contact anytime. All the best with your preparations.

Hi. Lionel here. What are your names if I may ask. My wife's name is Evelyn. I settled in Sydney when I first arrived in Australia. Sydney has a very fast paced lifestyle. Melbourne, as you may have heard in the news just a week or 2 ago, has been awarded The Most Liveable City in the World 3 or 4 years in a row now. You will be okay.

Hello Filipino Family moving to Melbourne!

Just wondering how your'e all doing? Are you all now in Melbourne? Yes moving to another country is adventurous but does have its challenges also.

My wife and are residents of this great city, Melbourne! :-) We love it here. The food! oh man the food! Melbourne is dangerous in that sense because you can EAT your way around the city! :-)

Drop me a line sometime - in the meantime, enjoy and embrace. Best Wishes and Good Success :-) Keep well.
