After living in Singapore for the past 5 years we now find ourselves relocating back to Melbourne early in 2012....
Repatriating is not easy at anytime, we have done it before. But we find it difficult to communicate with the friends we had before ... no one wants to listen to us talking about "life in Singapore" and yet, thats really all we know right now ...
We need to make a new circle of friends, ones that have traveled, people that have been expats elsewhere or even people living in Melbourne originally from Asia. We relate to this 'group of people' more than we do the friends we have known from years ago that still live in Melbourne.
I think we have a lot to offer with regards friendships, we are caring, friendly and outgoing, helpful and enjoy good company. We like photography, travel, walking, blogging, networking, good food and conversation ...
So why am I writing this here? Well am hoping some one can relate to the above, someone in a similar position perhaps?
Have looked for Facebook groups that could possibly suit .. but cannot seem to locate anything.
Any suggestions for two former Melbournite's to be able to widen the circle of friends?
ciao, Leone and John
