Thank you to everyone who has posted information on this wonderful resource!
I have read many posts but I would like to seek more specific advice from employers or parents about possibly relocating to HCMC with my 6 year old son.
Background:
No gap year for me, straight into full time employment in Australia after completing year 12 studies, settled down into family life, now raising a child.....on my own and working FT in the Commonwealth Public Service.
I have worked in the private and public sectors, procurement and contract administration, web and multi-media project management, office management, accounts processing, and partial studies in Interior Design. My intention was to spend 3 months in HCMC late this year looking for work and if successful, pack up my home in Canberra and move with my son in 2013.
I'm wanting to experience life outside our little home,
with my son, wanting him to be exposed to the richness of life through travel...I am open minded and want to offer this perspective to him.
I have created a list of the pros and cons, but I would appreciate any view points from employers and or parents living in HCMC about the viability of this plan, which could be short or long term. I have travelled to Vietnam and love the country, is it ludicrous to move us to HCMC?
Many thanks in advance
Susan
