I'm a bad blogger.

So a lot has changed in the last few months.
We have made the move to Melbourne, found a flat, had all our belongings arrive, both started new jobs, made friends and started planning our life here.
Life here is so much more fulfilling.

The move was scarily easy. We had signed a lease on a flat within a week of arriving and the day after we had the keys all our new furniture was delivered. It is in such a great spot with trams, shops, cafes and bars all round and only 5 minutes walk from the beach.

Da Hubs started his new job and i was madly job hunting. Which meant i accepted a role within 4 weeks of landing in Australia. My boss is Scottish, the team is young, multinational and really good fun.

Our shipped belongings arrived a within 2 months of our arrival which meant we could really settle in. Which was handy cause i was already sick of my limited wardrobe.

We have both made friends with people from our jobs, and through them are meeting more and more people who we are having great fun with. People here are so willing to accept newcomers.

We have bought bikes and joined gyms, found a brilliant little picture house, been to a footy match, visited the zoo and seen some of the many markets around town. The options for eating out are fantastic and we are slowly getting used to the different food in the supermarkets.

We are so happy and settled already. I feel more at home here than I did for the last two years in the UK.

Now I just have to figure out how to do our tax returns and fit in some training for the half marathon i'm entered in. Oh and plan Christmas dinner for next weekend.
