Kiwi Refugee in ACT

[pablothekiwi]

Just become a lot of things: economic refugee, new Australian job, home, state, city and all the palava that goes with that. Have to travel a bit more domestically, as well as internationally, in the new role as Australia much bigger than old ENZED, but still far away from anywhereelse, so looking forward to the collective wisdom of the members to find the smart ways to survive in airspace.

Cool - it's always good bumping into Welly kids every now and again I'm from Upper Hutt.

Your job sounds like it could get quite exciting on occasion! Mine is fairly the opposite: work as a business analyst in Insurance, where dull moments are written into the job description
