That’s huge news for Aussies who’ve always dreamed of living and working in Europe the European Union is reportedly considering a two way mobility deal with Australia as part of long-awaited trade negotiations. If it goes ahead, Australians could be able to live and work across EU member states for up to several years without the usual job-offer requirements and strict visa limits, which is a big step beyond current short stay travel rules. In return, Europeans would get similar access to live and work in Australia. It’s still in the negotiation phase, but if finalized, this could change the way Australians think about careers and life overseas.

That’s a striking moment whatever people think of Trump, handing over a Nobel award at the White House is heavy with symbolism. It feels like one of those gestures meant to send a message more than make headlines.
