What are the max temps there? Trying to think how it compares to here... honestly, I love the sun, so you're gaining in moving to that climate, in my personal opinion.

Spiders bother me less. There's roaches that are very large here though, and they like to go flying I hate roaches... In very warm climates, it's very easy for a lot of things to get into the home, especially if it's a humid climate.

…I’m not going to look at any spoilers of spiders but those beach/seascape pics are stunning, Glenn…it’s easy to start to see why you’ve fallen in love with the country……

How exciting! All the best with the move.

Oz is on my bucket list. One day!

The summer months where we will be going are around 30-35c and their winters get down to about 21c. They get a chill in the morning but as the day goes on it gets warmer.

Perfect weather really.
The spiders weren’t really an issue when we there, didn’t have any in the house at all (which I’m thankful for because I would have died) it was the grasshoppers that were a pain. Had a massive one that took forever to get out.

Not as big as I thought. Was that one dangerous?

[Good King Glennceslas]

No it was a huntsman. Not venomous

Company who is helping us with visa got in touch two weeks ago. It’s a very drawn out process.

Next step is them letting us know what our visa options are. The details we’ve sent so far have given us a pretty good springboard, point wise. We both have job offers, potential sponsors, savings etc.

All looking very positive

Isn't it expensive to live in Australia? , I know some countries pay better than here in the UK though...so I'm guessing the salaries match the cost of living over there ?, or should I say down under lol .

It looks beautiful in areas in Australia,but I think the bugs & potential poisonous spiders would irritate me too much.

[Good King Glennceslas]

Some things cost more and some cost less. It balances out.
Salaries run higher in Australia. We both have offers at 100k each, so we feel comfortable about the move.

Well both Australia & America have deadly creatures ,so if I went to those place ...i wouldn't exactly be skipping about in the woods , throwing caution to the wind . if you get my drift .

It's not like the UK , we don't have the same level of danger regarding wildlife. America has rattlesnakes and Australia has venomous spiders

Mmmmm

I think maybe Australia has the most scary

::: Ai overview

Australia is commonly cited as having the most daunting wildlife due to the sheer concentration of highly venomous species, followed closely by countries in Africa known for large, formidable predators.

Having lived there for 6 months, everything is trying to kill you. Horrific
