Hi Jake,
Thanks for the info. And thanks for the proposal! What do you look like? Do you like Rugby? Smile.
I'm heading down to Sydney next Tuesday, Sept. 8th and staying until the 25th. Is there a chance we can meet in Sydney? Could use some new friends and all the moving downunder info I can get.
If you would, please pass along your regular email address and I can email you from there or here. I'll have a global phone with me there too and can pass that along later.
My email: mtk3505@yahoo.com.
It's helpful to email me directly since I'm - 1)out and away from my computer sooo much, and 2) I'm addicted to my 'crackberry' and it sends things instantly.
Thanks again. Look forward to hearing from you and meeting you in Sydney.....if you're game.
Mary

: I'm going through another
: childhood/lifestyle
: change/adventure (pick one) in my life.
: Translation, I want to move to Sydney,
: Australia.
: However, how do I get started? I've talked
: with an Australian Immigration officer and
: he only knew about business visas. And
: bascially told me 'to marry an Ozzie'. Oh
: yes, big help.
: Careerwise I've worn many hats: marketing
: and advertising, technical writing, desktop
: publishing, event planning, tour directing,
: and more. Some I'd go back to, others never.
: Currently, I'm a freelance writer and
: political cartoonist.
: Can anyone out there contact me and help me
: get this whole process going? I'm aiming to
: move down by January of '10. Not a ton of
: time, but maybe enough.
: Thanks in advance,

: mary, first, you could mary me. oh wait,
: i'll have to wait another 4 years before i'm
: eligible for citizenship. at least with a
: fiance visa thinks will move a lot faster.
:
: but seriously,there are other visas besides
: business but it depends if you are eligible.
: best thing would be to troll on the dept of
: immigration website and get to know the
: different types and requirements.
:
: getting down by Jan 10 will probably be
: tricky. i could suggest going for a working
: holiday visa, but if you;ve worn many career
: hats than you are likely not eligible (<=
: 30 years old). i got a PR visa sponsored by
: the state of NSW. my last day of work in
: Boston in mid Aug and flying to Sydney with
: 2 bags and a backpack and nothing else.
:
: did this help? any questions? let me know.
: cheers.
