Hi,

im just wanting to hear about australian expats abroad and what their motivation to leave was?

For me the obsession with housing market and home ownership is just insane.

I know other countries are like this and particular capital cities but it just seems so engrained in the culture here. What do other people think?

The live and work to get a mortgage mentality.

    I’m in tech. I moved to the US for a job. The tech sector in the US is significantly larger than Australia, with much higher pay. I won’t stay forever, but it’s great 4 years in.

      How did you go about making the move? I wouldn’t mind trying the US for a few years tbh. I can’t seem to land many roles or good opportunities. When they do come up in Sydney, it’s all the usual trash.

      Did you take the E3 route?
