Sweet Chilli Sauce... Delicious, especially with sour cream and wedges. But apparently this appetizing compound hasn't caught on in America, so it's hard to find. But on the highly off occasion that man Googles "Where can I find sweet chilli sauce in Boston", here 'tis. Sweet chilli sauce can be found in the Asian "world" section at the Shaw's next to the prudential center. (Sorry for the Americanization (sorry for that one too.)
Random info? Definitely, but you don't know how many Ozzies are finding for sweet chilli sauce. My friend has been here for seven years, and she did not know where any was. So I made her wedges, with sour cream and sweet chilli. After not having them for 3 months, it was the best evening meal I've ever had. Can't vouch for her tho.

But, onto the serious stuff... Since I'm just beginning this, I form I'll start with a fitting topic - Setting Up.
When I got the news was arrival to Boston in January way back in August (That sentence make sense?) the first thing I did was start finding for a place to live. Why? Boston is a trainee town - housing is Competitive! So here's a concentrate of tips for finding a place:
Rent.com is your friend. That's the way I got my place. Use Google maps to find your location. I was lucky with Boston, as Google maps shows where all the T stations are. So I was able to find a way from my hopeful home to work easily. Email lots of real estate agents early and often about places. I went with Beacon Hill Pads they were absolutely helpful. My real estate agent was Anna Townes, and she was great! absolutely nice lady. When beginning out, look for a apartment in the city. It may be a bit more expensive, but you came to someone else country to caress someone else culture, and to get the most of it, you gotta be where the action is. Plus you can all the time move to a separate place when the rent expires, and you'll be set up. Get a place close to communal transport. beginning out, you don't know if you want to get a car or not. (After I arrived, I absolutely did not, as it's not unusual to have to pay ,000 for a carpark for a year.) Two numbers, Two words: 24 hour concierge. This makes your place safer, plus it means that you can get your furniture, packages, etc. Sent to you without having to worry about arrival home to a Ups slip. Especially helpful when you don't have a car. Try not to sign up to too many services (cable, internet, etc) until you are well and truly located in. One major thing I found out is (I'm not sure if this is just Boston) that electricity, phone, etc bills are much higher here than back in Australia. Also, local Boston population know what the best deals on stuff is, so have a look colse to before you jump into any thing. all the time ask how easy it is to change plans.
