Mmm hard question actually...major difference obviously being weather! :D

 

Work hours seem to be shorter here, I finish at 4pm (in UK it was 5.30-6pm). Pay is more here, I'm on double what I was in the UK for basically the same job! :)

 

People seem a bit more cheerful here..probably because of the weather!

 

I would advise anyone to definitely try it! But it's hard being halfway around the world away from family & friends.

It does sound exciting!

 

What is the food like in Australia, better or worse than here (or similar)?  Is it constant BBQs??

Do they really put shrimp on the barbies?

All kidding aside, I'd love to live in Australia or England. Seems like a million miles from here.

What is your fave thing to do when you have free time? Do you prefer dressing up or running around in yoga pants?

Have you seen the Australian show 'the strange calls'? It's abs hilarious.

how did you make the transition moving to australia from being upright in the uk to upside down in aus ?

Waaaay better than UK!! Restaurant quality food in most bars! Actually I've been to way more BBQ's in England...not a massive Aussie thing from what I've seen (could be wrong though).

Don't think so! Lol

Free time- either sofa with good TV & my fiancé or Pub! :D

I like both, lounging around and sometimes dressing up!

I haven't, I'll check it out :)

Have you had a chance to travel around in Australia?

No not really, only been Sydney (twice) and Perth. Hopefully soon though :)

It's hard. Especially as I'm quite ditzy anyways...put me upside down in the heat and I'm no good whatsoever! Lol

Nope none. Would like 2 (one of each) but never been broody. If it happens it happens, if not then its not meant to be.

Turquoise

(Also LOVE black but not sure if that counts)

 

No, this is the 1st :) (& hopefully only time)

 

Probably when I saw my friend waving at me across the pub, so I went over to her & said hi. She says "I wasn't waving at you"...I look at her a bit closer and it turns out she is just someone who looks very similar to my friend!
