We just love it here, I came over as a Chef which you can generally find work anywhere. We have traveled a bit and decided the Sunshine Coast is nice and near Brisbane without living in the center, the beaches are great and weather HOT

She gets 4 weeks paid holiday which I believe is the norm, however in Maria's case, this does not increase as the years go by
Hi, we've got 2 young children would you say they would have a better quality of life than if we were to stay in the UK. If you had known then what you know now would you still have gone.

We have only got the one Son who was coming up to 16 when we arrived, so maybe it was worse for him than being at a much younger age, anyway if I could get him away from the beach and answer this one I would. He loves it over here, once he got past the stage of meeting new friends we now hardly see him. The way of life is very different for them, tons of active things to do, the kids all seem happy and always friendly, the sun is always shining so they are always out and of course, they have the beach life.
So in our opinion, the quality of lifefor them is so much better.
We often wonder what he might now be doing if we were still in the UK as he would now have left school, here, he has another year to go until he reaches 18.

Not sure what you mean by "if you had known then what you know now would you still have gone"all I can tell you on that one is that we love it here, things have been tough and still are in a way, but walking on the beach early evening and sitting out on our deck overlooking the mountains makes the whole thing worth it.
