Australia has often been called “The Lucky Country”, and for many good reasons. We have a very low population density (25 million people living on 7.7 million square kilometres – making it the 6^th biggest country, and slightly bigger than the U.S minus Alaska!). This means owning your own home with your own backyard is still very much a reality here. With wilderness typically less than an hour’s drive away, even in the biggest cities, it also means it is easy to get away on holiday (something very important to most Australians).

We have a thriving economy, Australia is one of the only western countries that didn’t go into recession during the Global Financial Crisis, an enviably stable democratic system of government, a truly multicultural and religiously diverse society that prides itself on giving everyone a “fair go”, and a fantastic range of climates from temperate mediterranean to tropical, cool alpine and desert.

So many of our clients come to Australia just for a short visit, and never leave! However, it is a long and expensive process to become an “Aussie”, so it certainly pays to be prepared, and to come to Australia on the right visa with the right conditions for you (and your family).
