    I was surprised to learn that if you leave Australia indefinitely, you lose the right to vote in elections! I had no idea. As luck would have it, plans are firming up for our return next year. Time to update the Overseas Enrollment… 🇦🇺


    @fixatedperson I think so, but I’m already filing in three different countries (including Oz) for 2022. 😩


    @richdevelops I guess so. I still get to vote in US elections though based on my last address there, even though it was 20+ years ago. That’s why I was surprised! And yep, will be Sydney. 🙂


    @Amys_Kapers Thank you! Exciting news is afoot… will have more to report soon. 😉


    @sarah_federman Thanks! Was always a possibility, but work stuff and family stuff have made it pretty inevitable.


    @wholemilk Not where I am!! 😲


    @wholemilk Haha, no worries. Glad you had a good time at the Residenz!


    @Amys_Kapers 😂 Don’t start rumours!!
