The Murphy Family
It is now four years since we arrived in Australia and it continues to feel like we are on a very long holiday! Since moving over here we have opened doors to new friendships, career moves, family visits and new opportunities it has been a roller coaster of a journey but one we embrace and work towards making it even more successful.
We have also managed to visit the UK on a number of visits to see family and friends and have also loved having visitors who have stayed with us whilst holidaying here and sharing with them some of the many lovely places we have discovered in and around Brisbane.
Our life style has changed, the pace here is much slower and more carefree sometimes too much so, we have more time to explore and spend time with the family, having bbqs on a Sunday evening along the Brisbane River or out at the coast, the boys have adapted their life style accordingly and enjoy the casual dress code and sporting activities and have settled into the Aussie way of life so well.
Everyone is happy and on a good day glad to be here although the distance between friends and family some days is too great as we miss everyone so much, there is something to be said about past history and the unspoken understanding between friends and family, establishing new friends is difficult at times and something we have to work hard on to increase our social circle. So a very good reason for all our lovely friends and family to book a holiday and come and see us, very soon! We hope you enjoy reading about our adventures in our blog and love to read your comments, please keep in touch.
