    Sharing lang po. Initial Entry Completed last August 21. Napakaganda po ng Melbourne :) Napakaganda din po ng vibe ng mga tao at hindi na gaanu malamig ang panahon ngayon dahil malapit na ang spring. Masaya kami sa tinuluyan namin dito sa Wonga Park. Thank you sa isa natin kasama dito sa Pinoy Au na nagpaparent for short stay. Napakaccomodating po ng host namin at we felt at home agad and we highly recommend them. You can feel one with nature, safe and tahimik ang suburb, country feeling nakakarelax madidinig ang mga huni ng ibon sa bakuran and mararamdaman mo ang ganda ng vibe ng mga tao lalo na kanina sa mass sa chuch ng Sacred Heart sa Croydon mararamdaman mo that you are one with the community. We have until Friday to explore Melbourne, ayusin ang tfn, bank and medicare, meet friends and pinoy au friends. Napakaganda gawin motivation ulit ng makita namin ang ganda ng Melbourne sa pagiipon at pagahhanda for big move next year. We really felt na sobrang blessed nating lahat, given the opportunity to live in this amazing country which has so much to offer. Kitakits mga Melby Mates! :) :) :) Cheers!

    KUDOS po sa mga kapatid natin dito ng Pinoy Au na nag guide and nagbibigay ng tips sa mga baguhan sa Melbourne. :) :) :)

    Hi @Filoz... thanks for sharing!Nakaka excite naman yung post mo. Malapit na din kasi ang initial entry namin and tinatry ko wag ma excite masyado haha baka di nako makatulog. Btw, kamusta po ang lamig?Need pa rin ba magdala ng thick jackets, o light jackets will do na? Or di na need mag jacket?hehe medyo concern din kasi namin ang lamig.

    Tsaka sa tfn and medicare, ok lng ba iprocess na now kahit next yr pa mag big move?Di ba need yun ng address and need i declare tax for savings acct? Parang may nabasa ako tinatax daw yung savings dunno kung totoo eto :S Balak ko din iprocess na sana ang tfn and medicare pero dami nag advise na wag muna kung di pa naman mag permanently move.
