I found this essay really interesting:

I have been (am still?) thinking about "should I stay or should I go now?". The predominant options are:

• Army*
• Japan (TLA)*
• Victoria
• Volunteer Organisations

Living in Victoria would give me more access to the "margins". Which is hugely attractive. Real estate is also ridiculously cheap in Gippsland. But there are things I just love about Sydney. I really don't want to have to resort to engineering decision making to sort this out!!
