    Pretty sure we toyed with the idea 10+ years ago, but we were looking at a lot of different scenarios back then.

    yes I would seriously consider selling up everything and moving away - lets just say I've not discounted it lately, have even sat down and worked out what I would need to sell etc and what I would do with the things I would want to keep. I basically have no family here, just my friends (who are amazing and wonderful & I couldn't survive without) and they would be more than welcome to come visit me anywhere I ended up.

    Nope! I've already done that and come back to Australia after 2 years...it just didn't work out.


    Of course, I was only 2 years old at the time.

    Dh and I have done three big moves (within QLD but about 1000km each time) I love it. I love moving to a new town and exploring a new region esp if it is somewhere remote/has tourist attractions etc.

    We have been lucky though as DH job pays entirely for every move including paying stamp duty and other costs involved in us selling our houses. Not sure if we would do it if we had to cover expenses ourselves

    Mel - you know how i feel on moving at the drop of a hat (4 houses in 2 different states in 2 year lol!!!)...

    but i dont think i could sell everything and start afresh. I think i love my furniture pmsl!

    but if it was for an amazing opportunity (ie work with heaps of $$)... then sure!. but if it was so i could live there and it would cost me over $10-15 k to move and re buy everything probably not.

    Even to tassy i would consider shipping it there in a container.
