Hello everyone,

Moving to Australia without your significant other can be quite difficult, especially since your partner is an undeniable source of support. This kind of move may require some adjustments from both parties in order to make it a successful one.

What is challenging about being in a long distance relationship in Australia?

How to maintain an adequate level of communication considering differing schedules and time zones?

How often would you travel to each others location to meet?

How do you manage to still have a social life in Australia?

What hurdles need to be considered if you have left behind children who are under the sole care of your partner?

Thanks for sharing your experience,
Bhavna

Up until about 1970. about the only way of communicating with loved ones overseas was by the humble letter.
But for the past 30 years, we are spoiled by the ways of communicating with persons overseas.
We have cheap phone, Skype, Instagram, social media etc.
