Its good, different but good. Very relexed pace of life but sometimes annoying, due to slow drivers >:( ;D
The cars are very expensive, for example, look at the price of this

The wages out here are not high enough to have these cars unless you finance them which i cant do until 2 years when we get residency.
The problem is the currency rate is £1 - $3.8 so if you were to save a £1000, you'd get $3800!!!! But if i wanted to got back to england for a holiday, im looking over $7000!!!! :o

Funny you say that about the air fares to come back here. A friend that lives in Oz gets me to book his flights from here then I post the tickets out to him. Saves a fair bit that way :y
