Krazy - well said. I'm going to make the drive up in the next 3-4 weeks (wish I could do it earlier but unfortunately I cant... hopefully I wont miss out
)
My reasoning is "what have you got to lose?". In the end, if the **** hits the fan, it isn't for you & you don't like it - you can at any time pack the car again and drive back to where you came from (or buy a plane ticket back)... That said I'm definitely going to have a drive around a lot of places, look around to see what I like and then decide who I'm going to bother for a job
I'd rather sit around up north waiting for a job opportunity than in Melbourne... even if worst came to worst I'd just consider it a nice scenic holiday I've always wanted to take.
