28 May 2017 It’s cliche, but it’s true. Home is where the heart is. Ours is on Towton Street, in Redcliffe. It was a bit of a race but it was well worth it. October 8th, 2016, we got our residency status upgraded to “permanent”. It’s a huge deal for all migrants to Australia,, Read More
27 May 2017 It’s finally over. We’re tired, nay, we’re exhausted. We’re better by the day but there’s so many hours to catch on, it will take a while. I think we need a holiday. It all started in 2016. Back when Brieuc was still warm inside the womb.
15 April 2016 I left Belgium in February 2008. Eight years ago. Since then I lived in Queensland, Victoria, New Caledonia and Western Australia. Since then, much has changed back home too. And I have a new life, we have a new life. At last then, visit from the family ! The last one, Read More
21 JAnuary 2016 Well it’s also time, energy, patience, … We got our 457 Visa back in 2013, through an immigration agent my employer recommended, so we thought it would be a great idea to use the same agent for this one, the 186 Visa which automatically grants the long awaited P.R. (for permanent residency.), Read More
10 September 2013 When we first drank the homebrew, back in July, it was, let’s be honest, bloody awful. The colour was good, a light amber ale, slightly cloudy, nothing wrong there. But that’s just it, it lacked everything else. No body, no head, no nothing, and if you drank the whole 23 bottles, Read More
13 July 2013 And so I brewed beer. Well it’s rather easy really, especially when you receive a home-brew kit for St Valentine’s day… And you have great friends to help you out. So, the kit. What is it ? Well it’s a 23L plastic container, it’s 30 x 75cc bottles, it’s a thermometer,, Read More
23 April 2013 It’s been a while, I know, since I updated this blog. Though a lot has happened, there wasn’t one particular event worth mentioning. I look back and see myself a year ago, I had just started this journey, Claire has just flown to Broome, we had only started the Tanami Track,, Read More
14 March 2013 At last, we have our own place. Not that we were sick from Jenni and the girls, far from it actually. They’ve been nothing but awesome. We’ve actually grown pretty close to the whole family, even Ronnice the mum, Caz the sister, and the friends, and of course Shiobby and Katie., Read More
2 March 2013 So it finally came through. We’ve received the good news yesterday morning : I am pleased to advise that Brice Gery Jean Servais has been granted a Temporary Business Entry (Class UC) Work (Skilled) (Subclass 457) visa. This visa allows you to travel to, enter and remain in Australia and is, Read More
19 February 2013 The past week certainly tested my patience. You’d expect when you’re wiring money from one account to another, even from overseas, that it shouldn’t take more than 48h. Realistically, it’s kinda like copying a file onto a USB stick, right ? Wrong. Banks will debit your first account on the day, Read More
