Moving to London: where it all began

London: the cultural and financial capital of the world, and our new home!


So to set the record straight, I was convinced that London was for us a long time ago. I was keen to finish studying and then get out and explore the world, and get a job that would really challenge me.

Post exams, I suddenly had all this time on my hands, and no hobbies whatsoever. I found myself staying later and later at work, and getting frustrated when I came home and did the same routine every night: gym and tv. Not really living the dream.

Michael on the other hand, took a little convincing... initially he was dead against it, but came around when he gave up footy and suddenly had a lot more time on his hands.

We decided to go when Michael's commitments to coaching footy ended, in September 2011. I lined up an exciting job (and a visa!) and we were off... or so we thought. A series of delays later, and we finally left on the 22nd of Feb 2012.

But first we had to say (a long) goodbye to Oz!
