I'm a canuck and just moved to Sydney myself! I don't know where to find other Canadians either! So if I find some more I'll let you know!! There should be a canadian hostel here!! I was actually just going to go down to the consulate soon, for info and to find out where I can meet some other canadians!

Did you guys find anyone in the Sydney area yet?
I am in Brisbane but know someone in the Sydney area that may be able to show you around some.
Let me know through this board if you might be interested.
Later, Luke

Would any of you mind sharing your relocation experience from Canada to Australia?

Any advice would be appreciated, particularily on things like:
1. shipping furniture to Aust. (is it worth it)
2. finding an apartment (is it true refrigerators are not included)
3. where to find a refrigerator and what can I expect to pay
4. other things that surprised you once you reached Australia.

Many thanks!

Ok folks. not to sound like a wanker or anything but you just moved FROM Canada to a NEW country and you want to find Canadians? Seriously. why? I understand the move can be lonely but you'll get jobs and settle in and all will be well. My advice (not that you asked for it): Avoid fellow Canucks as best as you can and just get involved in the new culture. Go out and buy a burger with the lot and reflect on how awesome it is that you are here in Australia.

I've done a fair bit of traveling around the world and it always surprises how many people actually travel to only try and find the things they left behind at home.

I've never understood that.

Good luck with your transitions!
