Exciting News!

Well, we think it is anyway.

We have entered the world of video-making by launching our own YouTube channel.

Video content has always been a great source of inspiration for us, especially the early That Johnston Life and The Bam Famalam videos ❤

As a pair of natural introverts, it’s also been a huge challenge to talk to a camera and release the result to the internet, fearing the judgment, etc!

No Comfort Zones

We know we will be ripping ourselves out of our comfort zones, though very shortly, by moving our family from the UK to Australia.

So here we go, no more waffle in the written format. Please check out the videos below and like, share and subscribe!!!

When moving from the UK to Australia, at some point, you will have to find somewhere to live! This video explains our experience of finding rental accommodation in Australia. As a family of 4 with school-aged children, it was important to us that we get settled as soon as possible, and we knew which suburb we wanted to head to in Adelaide, so we enlisted the help of expert relocation agents; https://rentalsearchaustralia.com.au/ We only really had a 4-week window to find a suitable property. Obviously, we were also back in the UK when we were starting our search, so we really didn't know where to start. Enlisting the help of experts to cover this aspect of the move from England to Australia was one of the best decisions we made. I'm certain it has also saved us a significant amount of money that would have otherwise been spent on temporary accommodation. 0:00 Introduction 0:43 Start of the process 5:17 Advice on documents 8:15 Local Knowledge is helpful 10:15 Viewings 12:00 Help getting set up 16:00 Help with property inspection report Follow us on: 🔗 https://www.tiktok.com/@halftheworldaway2025 🔗 https://halftheworldaway.co.uk 🔗 https://www.instagram.com/halfthewa/ Links: 🔗https://rentalsearchaustralia.com.au/ #uktosouthaustralia #uktoaus #ukmigration #teachersinaustralia #teachersinoz #migration

How we squeezed our life into a Seven Seas MoveCube to move from the UK to Australia.
This video catches up on what has been happening over the last few weeks as we continue our build-up to move to Australia. The school year has just come to an end, which means for Dani it's time to say goodbye to colleagues and the pupils. For our own children, they have had to say goodbye to their friends at the end of the school year, with the added emotion that they will be moving half the world away to Australia. 0:00 Introduction 1:02 Saying goodbye is tough 2:05 Leaving school behind 4:00 Our children have left school 5:05 Our next steps - house sale 6:11 Latest blog on when to start clearing house 7:07 Teaching in Australia update Follow us on: 🔗 https://www.tiktok.com/@halftheworldaway2025 🔗 https://halftheworldaway.co.uk 🔗 https://www.instagram.com/halfthewa/ Links: 🔗https://rentalsearchaustralia.com.au/ #uktosouthaustralia #uktoaus #ukmigration #teachersinaustralia #teachersinoz #migration
