What’s it really like to move permanently to your dream spot by the sea or in the country? Your fantasy may be different from reality. What do you need to know and do to make a success of your Sea Change or Tree Change? The tutor for this course has been living on the mid North Coast for 4 years and his experience can help you make the right choices.

If you want to learn about how you can make a successful Sea Change from Sydney, then this course is for you.
