Italian geologist Giorgiomaria Masocco moved to Kalgoorlie from Milan to work in the goldmines and is loving it.


The first time Giorgiomaria came to Australia it was on a Working Holiday Visa. He then went back to Italy to complete his Geology degree and finally returned to Kalgoorlie, this time to stay.

He has since then found a wife, become a father, bought a house and now he is encouraging friends and former university colleagues to follow his footsteps: move from the smog and fog of Milan to the sunshine and beauty of Kalgoorlie.
