I am a year out and things are starting to get to me here. I can't say I miss the long crappy winters in Ontario but I do miss being around Canadians. BC was the province I wanted to end up in but the IMG program there is ridiculous. I feel torn most of the time between staying here and going back. I would have thought Aus would feel more like home after time. It sort of does but the next day it doesn't.
If I go back I will not get paid the same, have less vacation and work more hours. However my family/old friends would be closer, goods and services are generally cheaper and traveling to most places is cheaper and faster. I get the impression the training programs are a little more organized but that probably varies highly.
Seems like a strange situation at times. I miss my home country but don't really want to move back to my home province where my family is. My career will take longer here but it should be less stressful. Free time vs. stress vs. money vs. culture vs. weather vs. career opportunities makes the decision to stay or go seem more and more difficult instead of easier!
Anyone else in a similar position?
