Hello

My name is Tracy. I moved to a place called Wangaratta about a year ago cause this is where my boyfriend is from. I am finding it hard to meet people and I miss things from home. If you find a good hockey channel or bar please let me know. I wish I had BELL :)

Hey I know this is a few months late but I'm a Canadian also living in Melbourne and feeling a bit home sick myself. Would love to meet up with any other Canadians in the city for a beer.

I live in the CBD so feel free to send an email.

Cheers!

Interested in doing a survey that will help my research?

Where do you Canadians hang out? I can't seem to find any Canadians!

I made a posting to meet up for some beers for Canada Day, but sadly no replies.

Hey veejaym, if you're still listening.I worked for TELUS for 11 years in Vancouver, BC and now living in Melbourne (Elwood). I did desktop support and am doing the same here. The IT industry is alive and well here and there are heaps (as the Aussies would say) of contract jobs available.

The offer to meet up for drinks on Canada Day still stands.

Melbourne Canada Day Event

Post Tue Jun 17, 2008 6:30 am

Hi all fellow Canucks Downunder in Melbourne, I too felt the same way when I moved here 3 yrs ago and found the Canada Club of Victoria on Canada Day! It was Great!
They are holding another special event this year on
June 29th; for more info go to their website as mentioned by Comet555 earlier in this thread. Hope to see you there!

30 yo Canadian female living in Melbourne

Post Sat Jun 28, 2008 4:46 am

Hey all,

I am a 30 year old married Canadian female living in Melbourne with my Australian husband. Have been here for nearly 3 years now, but would love to meet any Canadians who are looking for a bit of familiarity. Really miss the dry Canadian sense of humour. If you're in a similar situation drop me a line. Happy to meet up for a drink or whatnot. Also wondering if there is any sort of Canada Day action happening in town?

Hey calcos,


Too bad you're not in Sydney! I would have come out for a beer or two. Definitely missing Canada Day back home. Don't know too many Cdns here in Sydney.you all seem to be out in Melbourne! Did I come to the wrong city?

Hey everyone !

im 24yo canadian girl from ottawa moving to melbourne in august. I found work in Videoconferencing due to the work experience i have here and find that there is so much more demand for IT jobs in Australia. Im so excited to get started ! i just had a few questions, I heard you can actually snowboard in Victoria, is it worth bringing my snowboard ? and i was gonna bring my bike with me as well. its in good condition but not sure what condition it will be in when i get there. would that be worth it as well ?

looking forward to meeting up with youz sooooon :)

cheers
Melanie
