I’ve come back
May 22nd, 2011, No Comments
It’s been several months since my last blog and many things have happened. I was studying part time with Open Universities Australia doing a course on Internet studies, but due to a number of circumstances, have withdrawn from these studies and have returned to full time work with Network Couriers.

I haven’t blogged for several weeks for a number of reasons, but I thought that this topic was worth a mention. Today marks the 12 month anniversary that Jo and myself have been back in Australia.

We had the removal team in today packing up all our household items, to ship to Western Australia. We were prepared more the packers this time. In previous moves, the boys simply turn up and start packing things up that are there; not necessarily organized into groups & rooms. This time was different. We had [...]

The whole process of packing up and moving is a very daunting task. You have to work out how much stuff to pack for use while you’re waiting for your goods; organizing professional movers if you don’t want to do it all yourself, or are moving great distances. You get to the point of living [...]

Our journey of moving back to Perth began yesterday with the booking of our flight from Brisbane to Perth. We have seven and a half weeks to organize the shipping of our goods, sell the car, and organize everything else that needs doing in preparation for the move. We are getting used to this process [...]
