Ping Pong Pom

A fictional look at emigrating to Australia, written by an English author who did just that.

The story focuses on different couples as they leave their relatives and friends and head for the land of sunshine, cuddly koalas and kangaroos. Their expectations are high- after all they are going to a country where English is spoken, where they drive on the left and where there is a large community of Brits. For some, life in Oz is perfection, with its beaches, the barbies and the relaxed way of life, but for others...

Who will survive and who will become a Ping Pong Pom, as the Aussies love to call the people who give up and decide to return home.
