Russians in Perth Australia

[Graham Squance]

Hi,

I have moved back to Perth with my wife Oxana who is a Russian from Kazakhstan. We have being together for 5 year, most of it in Russian and Kazakhstan where I was working.
The shift to Australia has made Oxana a bit lonely.
Oxana would be interested in meeting other Rusian speaking people living in Pertn.

Hello Graham.  My name is Graham too.

I remembered a member here not long ago, mentioning about living in Perth with the wife and talked about being lonely.  I cannot remember who the member was, but I hope he/she will read your posting.

Good luck

  , Graham Squance!  Where does the name come from?
 
There have been occasional posts from members living in Perth, but the most regular was Spoon, a New Zealander working in the mines in northern Western Australia.  Unfortunately he hasn't been online since September.
 
Hopefully your post may trigger others from the region.

True, but it is relatively "A-typical" of many who pass through the halls of RWD and the other fora. Post while their heads are in the clouds and then the reality sets in. There are I suspect many train wrecks we never hear about

Also true.

hi graham

there are many , many ex pat russians and ukrainians living in perth & wa
your wife will settle in pretty quickly id think , 
there are a couple of russian orthodox churches as well , that run community events and the usual services etc if your interested,

many ex pats choose not to  associate that much with other russians as they often find their own way as they make a new life in australia

spoon has divorced,
 sometimes it happens , it is life ,  sadness and disapointment happen  even with the very best of good intentions from all parties
