Hi Everyone.
Well it's 17 weeks to the minute that we landed in NZ, well it was when I
started this post :D
How has it been? Absolutely fantastic :raebanana
Moments of homesickness? Sure but they dont last very long
Living in fabulous house? You bet
Enjoying work here? Oh yes despite being squashed by an 83 year old women
Making friends? Yes loads of forum friends and Kiwi's too
Had any vistors? 2 lots from UK who both loved Christchurch and NZ scenery
Looking forward to Christmas? Not sure as Clare working, so Boxing day will
be ours
Is NZ for us? Oh yes:raebanana :raebanana

What wonderful jobs you both have for meeting LOADS of new people! And the added benefit, Ben, of being able to be out in the countryside (as I recall??) meeting people in their homes.
Glad to hear the transition is going so well!
