Last Friday at 4:30pm A was asked by his boss if he would like to move to Melbourne to work for a client for 2-3 months.
His boss said that he understood he was engaged and would assume it would probably be a no, but he let A have the weekend to think about it.
As soon as A told me, I told him to take it. I don't think he expected that response, but who am I to hold my fiance back from an amazing opportunity, experience and cred on his resume?
PLUS this means many trips to Melbourne for me, shopping and dumplings :)
A told them yesterday he would accept it.
This morning they got back to him.... IT HAS BEEN APPROVED!!!!
A will have a serviced apartment in the city and trips back to Sydney every few weeks included in the package.
I am going to miss him terribly, but I think when exciting opportunities like this come along you just have to grab them with both hands and run with it.
3 months with regular visits is hardly anything. We did 6 months with no visits... so hopefully this will be like a walk in the park.
Expect many Melbourne posts from now on.. The first I'm sure will include China Bar.

Our last Melbourne trip
Oh yay thats super exciting! Dumplings for sure hahah how often will you visit him? Glad its all worked out for you guys! X
ReplyDeletelast time I was so obssessed with the dumplings, I even got some takeaway to eat at the airport! hahaha. Well they are flying him back every couple of weeks, so I figure i'll be down there every couple of weeks too.
DeleteHAHAHA i did that at the sydney airport with this fairyfloss which I found there, I was sadly obsessed haha!!
DeleteMaybe you should move with him. It is a great city, with many fabulous bloggers, after all! ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's so exciting though. And you're a such a good fiancee! I would've made my boyfriend feel bad and guilt-tripped him the whole while! HAHA
Can't wait to see the Melbourne posts! xx
hahaha if it was a permanent thing, I would be there in a second! Well I did run off to Canada on him so I figure this is settling the score lol.
DeleteYay what a great opportunity, you could always come with him
ReplyDeleteif I could afford to be a lady of leisure I would :P
DeleteChina Bar for the Win!!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting. Agree with cevapa, you should totally come with him!!
I have been dying to go since your post!!
DeleteThis is an awesome opportunity for him, and I agree it will look great on his resume!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to some of your Melbourne posts =]
You guys are such a great looking couple!

DeleteOh wow that sounds like fun ! Lucky you and its so cheap to fly down between melb and sydney you will be able to see him all the time !

hehehehe I think I am more excited than he is..
DeleteHey!
ReplyDeleteI've been reading your blog for a little while and never commented but wanted to say I think it's awesome you're letting A embrace this opportunity, he's a lucky guy to be with someone so understanding about these things and I'm sure three months will fly!
x x
Thanks Leigh, I try and I think that's what your suppose to do with someone you love right? support them to live their life to the fullest! Thanks for the lovely comment xx
DeleteOh how exciting! Congrats to your fiance, that is an amazing opportunity.
ReplyDeleteFrequent trips to Melbourne isn't all that bad of a deal for you either! ;)
Wishing you both the best with it.
xx
Thank hun.. it's really a win WIN :) HEHE
DeleteThat is awesome! Congratulations to him! And YAY for Melbourne trips for you! So jealous <3
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great opportunity :-) If you have much time on your visits we should arrange another blogger meet :-)
ReplyDeleteOoooHhoohh that could be fun!
DeleteI agree, you've definitely done the right thing. Congrats to him for landing a great job. Three months is nothing. My FH will have been away overseas for just over six months in a couple of months time, and I can tell you the countdown has definitely started till he comes home. I'm lucky to have had email contact and some phonecalls but I think your very lucky for it to be just melbourne and you can take regular trips and explore the place while your there. So cool!
ReplyDeleteYeah and look how awesomly you (seem to be) handling it! Plus from what I can tell from your blog, you get a lot more wedding planning done without the male distractions hahaha. thanks hun x
