Heading half way around the globe to start a new life in a property in Australia may seem daunting at first, but could pay dividends in the end.
As well as the famous Australian sun, one sector commentator believes there is an abundance of things to do in the country that makes a move down under a great way to start afresh.
Kate Mison, branch manager at STA Travel London, Victoria, said: "Miles of stunning beaches will keep the beach bums happy and if you’re feeling more active, then this is the place to learn to surf, scuba dive, try a bungee jump or set off on an outback adventure."
She added that Melbourne is fast becoming a real hotspot and the city may be an ideal place to find property in Australia.
Ms Mison noted that the city is a cosmopolitan area with a laidback vibe, great bars, a thriving music scene and a busy sporting calendar.
