Good day Everyone.
This is Stephen and Melissa living near Blenheim, in Marlborough.
We have been in NZ for three years, first in Auckland, before escaping the big city and moving down here in August last year.
We originally arrived with our backpacks and visitors visa's and having jumped through the hoops of immigration, were granted PR last year.
We are both in our late 30's (no kids, yet!), but have travelled alot before settling here. Melissa is from Finland and I am from Sheffield, we both met when we were backpacking and were married in Fiji in 2004.
We now both work in the wine industry, which is a million miles from our previous careers! We are both very happy to be here, after a bit of a struggle in Auckland, we have definitely landed on our feet here.
Be great to hear from anyone in the area!
