Lesson 15
Emigrating to Australia

Jo: Hi, I'm Jo and I'm moving to Australia in about 8 months' time. I'm just at the High Commission at the moment... and basically I'm just waiting for the forms, so I can fill the forms in, finish off the application and get it in.

When I was in Australia, I was there for a year and a half and I met my boyfriend there. Since then he's come over here and been here for a year and we plan to go back and get married.

There's a lot of things to think about - where we're going to live, all the bureaucracy of it is quite hard to get through. There's a lot of things you have to provide, it's not just getting on a plane and going.

I think the hardest thing is going to be saying goodbye to my Mum. I've been thinking about it for a long time now.

I've come to terms with the fact that I'm leaving my friends and you'll always make new friends when you're over there. But it's going to be hard to leave my Mum.
