Goodinson Family Update

After returning from NZ the Goodinsons put their dream on the back burner for a few months. But, in October they decided to go for it and make the move down under!

 Since then they have pursued a work to residence visa as the best route. As Michael doesn't hold a degree he needs a job offer to get a visa. The job hunt has become a bit of a catch 22 situation. Employers are reluctant to hire without a visa, but you can't get a visa without somebody wanting to hire you! They are currently still trying to get that job offer to get a visa and make the move.
