    I have to share my excitement :D

    So, we're closing the distance!!!
    My SO and I have been together for 10 months now. I'm in Australia and he's in England, 10,591 miles between us, and we've not met yet. Our relationship has been completely based on Skype, phone calls and instant messaging on Watsapp. But we are finally going to be together!!! I fly out from Sydney on Thursday (4 days and 6 hours to be exact ) and I just had to share my news with someone!
    This will hopefully be the closing of our distance forever, although I have to return to Australia after my two year visa runs out, but I hope he will be able to come back with me

    To all of those who are waiting to close the distance, I wish you all the best of luck. I know it's hard, the past 10 months have been the hardest of my life, but it's all worth it in the end.

                            ^^^

                            I'm in an Australia to England LDR and I couldn't imagine doing the 2 year WHV as your first meet, especially seeing as you are the one going to live with him from the get go.

                            OP, I also see that you are hoping for him to move back with you after your 2 years there, I advise you to start looking into the Australian Partner Visas early on IF that is your plan, partner visas have an average processing time of 5-10 months, and it takes a good while to get everything sorted before you even submit the application. if you guys want to have him fly back to Australia with you once you leave the uk you'll have to get yourselves sorted out pretty quickly, unless you guys are happy for you to go back to Aus on your own for a few months and wait for his visa.

                            I know that all sounds overwhelming, but its definitely something you should look into sooner rather than later, me and my SO are going through the visa process for him to migrate to Australia from England so we know what you guys will be in for! We are THIS CLOSE to submitting his application, and there is A LOT to go through even up to the submitting application stage!

                            good luck on your super duper long first meet
