Where $1,200 a month – for a couple – buys you a comfortable home in a beautiful setting, pays for food and utilities, entertainment, even a housekeeper.
Where prices for everyday things are from the 1950s: A taxi ride costs three bucks. Lunch out for $5. A first-run movie is $4. A housekeeper will clean once-a-week for $15.
Where you don’t have to re-adjust: English is widely spoken, respect for seniors is ingrained in the culture, and large, thriving Aussie communities already exist.
Where family isn’t a million miles away: Your new time zone is the same as Perth… another spot is only three hours behind Melbourne.
Time to give this some more thought?
