First week

We are 1 week in Sydney now. The first few days we were really bothered by Jet-lag, maybe more than usual because of the fact that we were trying to get into the normal rhythm more then on a holiday.

Let’s see what we've done so far:

• Opened our bank-accounts.
This is really easy and they give you the debit-cards straight away. Transfer from the Dutch bank-account takes only 2 working-days.
• Applied for a Tax File Number (TFN)
• Found an apartment (more about that later on)
• Been to Ikea
• Bought some furniture (sofa, bed, table and chairs) – not Ikea ;)
• Bought some appliances (fridge, washing machine, vacuum cleaner)
• Met up with some old friends
