Process was easy because of Aussie partner, took a year and a half or so to do all the paperwork, mainly because I'm so slack...
I was a full-time graphic designer when I left, I still do freelance jobs when they come around but my day job is at a day centre for disabled adults... I assist them with art, music and other fun stuff... I've accidentally changed careers and I really, really love it... Money's shit but life is cheaper here and the freelance jobs top me up... I did get a design job but I left after three weeks, couldn't handle working in an office anymore... Or the three hour commute there and back every day...
I've bought two guitars (one custom made) and a couple of guitar amps while I've been here so I'm not starving... ;)
