...And We're Back!

I thought I was done but I'm back again, funny how things work out...

I came home to Sydney almost two years ago thinking it was going to be forever, that I would finally settle down, get a job, start a family and become an active, productive, tax paying member of Australian society again.  Fate however would have other thoughts.  It has been one long winded way of getting myself a job offer from NYC, a move that would potentially mean leaving Australia's shores for a long, long time.

It's taken a while to get organised, but last Friday my E3 visa to the US was approved; I'm officially allowed to enter the States to live and work there.  Indefinitely.  This means I have exactly 4 weeks from today before I get on a plane to fly back to Taiwan for a 2 week stopover with my family before I begin my new life in the land of freedom fries, Barak Obama and the blues.

Time to restart the countdown.
