On July 2 2012 I started work with my new employer, the University of the Sunshine Coast.  Other than being in a ridiculously beautiful place (the Sunshine Coast in Queensland) I got the impression that people here were relaxed and easy-going and ready to help a new person to settle in.  I have to say that despite the busy-ness of getting life back on track in “the old country”, I am genuinely HAPPY! I have been spontaneously smiling (for no reason) and feeling lighter and calmer than I have for a long time.
