After initially moving to London post-college, the author realized that while they loved the city's cultural scene, they felt career-stuck amidst dreary weather. Seeking a more vibrant life, they relocated to Australia, where they celebrated their newfound happiness. The author appreciated Melbourne's diverse offerings akin to London but complemented by sunlight, fresh markets, and a spirited arts community. Their positive experience was further enhanced by the excellent healthcare system and a convenient public transit, leading to a stronger connection with their chosen homeland.
Moving to Australia immediately felt like a breath of fresh air. After spending a year in London's endless gray skies and gloomy weather, I enjoyed feeling the sun on my skin in Australia.
Many of my Australian friends in London raved about their quality of life back home, and I was eager to try living somewhere new. Plus, since my mother was born in Queensland, I held Australian citizenship.
