I decided to have a quick look on the forum with information about moving to Canada.
Here are a couple of links to places where you can rent homes (I think it would be a much better idea to rent out a property when first moving out and only buy once we have settled)

Goals for 2011
This is what I want to achieve in 2011:
- Find out how much homes are to rent in the north and rental agencies.
- Find out any property papers for the north.
- Find out places Online where I can learn Gaelic.
- Compile any informations that I have got about moving to Canada into one place for ease of finding it.
- Once informations about Canada has been compiled find out what else I need to find out.

Another year has passed and...
I still have not moved anywhere.
I set myself challenges for this year though. However I forgot about them so I will have a look through and see if I actually managed any of them.
LOL I have not done well at all with my list. Though in my defense I have not got any actual plans to move so I can very easily put off finding out things like that as they are not really needed. I am sure that once the time comes when I actually need to find it out I could get found out in a very short time.
I do think that for next years goals I need to set myself some relevant goals. I doubt that a move to Canada will be happening next year, however I would like to relocate to the north of Scotland. I think that while I need to include research about moving to Canada I should base the majority of it around moving within Scotland.

- Work out different ways in which I will be able to make it across to Canada.
- Research how my partner will be able to get a job as a ranger and if there is anything else that he will need to get.
- Find out any useful information about Canada such as Education system, health system, taxes, utilities, recycling schemes, public transport etc
- Find out what kinds of visas are available and how to apply for a permanent visa.
- Find out how self employment affects my chances of getting across.
- Find out how I can continue to pay outstanding bills once I have moved across.
- Find out how moving affects any long term insurance that I have got.

Happy Christmas
I have had a funky day here. Even though we have not had any snow today it has still been lovely to see the snow on the ground.
I think I have pretty much decided that I do not want to live in Australia.. I think I need to change the title of this blog to reflect that.
Right at this moment I am not really sure where I do want to live. I would still like to live in Canada, but I still so not know where about. Ideally I would go out there and take a road trip to gain some idea of what it is like there. Now I just need to work on making that happen.

September goals
I think that when I get the chance this month I should look at how we are going to be able to move up north.
I need to find out the rental price of properties in various locations and the cost of hiring out a van to get stuff up there. We would have to rent it out for a few days so that we can get everything up (we will be limited to the size van that we will be able to take up and I know that we will not be able to fit it all in a large van)

Been ill
I set myself a goal for last month and I have still not done it.
I was lazy in July which was why I did nothing then but I was ill in August so that was why I have done it this month.
I think I am going to have to rename this Blog again though. I would like to include my hoped for move to the north. That is more achievable at the moment and it is something that we can do in the next two years. I am hoping that once my partner has finished college next year we can start planning to make the move. Ideally we would be making the move next summer when the younglings are off school.
