Well, we found a home (apartment) in the meanwhile (Gordon, NSW - about 10k to the north of Sydney CBD) but basically we are sort-of camping (in room) at the moment because our container from Europe takes forever ... hopefully this misery will end on the 21st.



My girlfriend is missing the snow ... but actually I can easily wait another 6 months. Escaping November in Germany was not the worst plan ever.

Hi Klaus,



I had four international relocations in my live and am still recovering from the last one. So I take you have 3 to go



Luckily I never needed a sea-container which needed 10 weeks transit. To and from the US I moved with 3 suitcases of stuff. I managed to keep that one simple. I remember discussing your long discontinued Minolta MD page from the US.



The advantage of moving to the Kangaroos is that you already speak the language of your new home country. I am still learning and feeling a bit like a tourist here.



Are you expecting snow in Sidney, in say August?



I wish you luck that you get your container soon

Joachim
