Read their story

Australia was sold as "the place to be" and this concept hooked Annunziato. News arrived from 'word of mouth' that the chance of having a better lifestyle was in abundance. The belief that work was readily available and money to be made seemed like "a good idea". At 26, with brother, Francesco, he was bound for Fremantle in view of a working holiday.
