Perth's nightlife leaves a bit to be desired. If you live in the CBD then id say it would be better. Melbourne and Sydney are better, but they're about 3 times the size of Perth. Should be plenty of work here, more than over east i'd say. You cant beat the weather here though, sunshine 10 Months a year :cool:

Finished with work, the apartment's pretty much all packed up, and now we're just waiting to hand the keys over on Saturday

Then off we go up the coast! Port Stephens is the first stop, supposed to be fairly nice.

Just hope we get the weather...

I'm looking into going to australia for a year or possibly longer next summer. Looking for admin/airport work - it's what I have most experience in. Where would offer most employment for me? Also i see that you have to change employer every 6 months - is there any way around this, as i'm sure it will be hard to find an employer to take me on for such a short time?

locky2891 · 14-10-2010 1:07am

cheers mate.

locky2891 · 14-10-2010 1:10am

) and just spin in and out of perth for work. anyone any suggestions, cheers

Fremantle is one of my favourite places. it has a bit more culture and history than Perth. Very relaxed atmosphere. Kind of like Galway

Well not legally no.

Chances are you may not get to do what you are used to. But you will get something

Sounds good to me so, i love galway. Ya because i was looking at vids of perth on youtube and the city centre looks pretty morbid, although northbridge didn't look too bad, thanks mate :pac:

Heading on a road trip to the south coast of NSW, any ideas? Jervis bay is on the cards. Any other place worth seeing?

You might want to bring an inflatable life boat with you to get around in if this weather keeps up

Feck of rain!!!!

Zambia · 01-11-2010 7:46am

AAMI Staduim charged me 5 bucks for a plastic bag (rain cover) last night.... 5 Bucks I was so robbed.

Lucky I got the tickets free. AAMI Stadium is nice will definately consider going when the Union side starts up.

i loved wellington. my knee couldnt handle it very well, but welly was very fun. very pretty place, heaps of awesome art, and a bigger scene in most things than i'd gotten used to.

went from there to new plymouth, absolutely LOVE new plymouth!!!

if i had to stop living in chch, i think it'd be a toss up between dunedin and new plymouth. both quite the awesome.

I love New Plymouth too if there was only decent work there. Lots of great outdoors stuff nearby with Mt Egmont to play on.
