    Hi All! I will be moving to Sydney at the end of November. It will my first time at NSW and I do not know anyone there so it will be good to meet fellow pinoys and make new friends. I previously worked at Melbourne, Victoria then returned to Manila to sort out some docs for my PR visa. Now, I am a Au permanent resident.

    Alright, semester's almost over (submitted my final assessment today, late though hahaha), so I should be pretty free to meet up in the next few days. We can keep the meetup small muna, kung sino lang available on that day, then we can schedule more meetups later sa mga hindi nakasama sa first meetup :) medyo matagal-tagal pa naman (sana) tayo dito hehe

    @ITProAu congrats on your PR!

    @Delsette how are you settling in? I've never been to Blacktown, although I probably should go one of these days hehe. Anything interesting there?
