Agreed, there's some affinity between the 2 countries despite the language barrier... it felt like a parallel universe my first trip to Aus!<BR><BR>My partner's from WA so we're looking to spend some time, around 4-5 months, with the family. We currently live in the Yukon so a few months out in the winter is always a good idea! I'm also looking at it as a great opportunity to get involved in a larger geospatial community.<BR><BR>Unsure as of yet what work opportunities will come my way, keeping my eyes open though. I have dual Canadian/Australian citizenship so no need to worry about work visas (fortunately! I've paid my dues through years of immigration paperwork...).<BR><BR>Any suggestions would be most welcome...<BR><BR>Cheers<BR>John<BR><BR>

<DIV>Hi John,<BR>Welcome to Australia. There seems to be a strong affiliation between Canada and Australia (we have hired 2 Canadians at LISAsoft already).<BR><BR>What brings you to Australia? What will you be working on?
