Hi,

Just wanted to say hello, and introduce ourselves:
We're a family of four (Charlotte, Niels, Nikolaj (age 8) and Frederik (age 6)) who've decided to take the plunge and head for NZ - just as soon as we can get through all the paperwork...

We submitted our EOI (no job offer) in February and were selected a week ago. All of a sudden, dreams and talk have become hard reality! We really ARE thinking of moving about as far away from Denmark as it's possible to go.

This forum has been a great help in making our decision - we've been browsing through it, sometimes almost every day, weighing the pros and cons - so thank you everybody!

Right now, it seems as if all the bother is just beginning: get our paperwork together (and translated), submit our ITA (when we receive it), try to rent our house out, and, last but not least, get Niels a job. (He's an IT consultant, so as far as we know, it shouldn't be too difficult)

I guess we'll just take it one step at a time - but boy, how I wish we could just snap our fingers and finally just be there, in NZ, ready to start our grand new adventure!

..............We really ARE thinking of moving about as far away from Denmark as it's possible to go.

The moon?

Sounds very familiar!

Although even NZ is not paradise I found it paradise related to where we came from, which is the Netherlands. After about 6 months I can positively say I've never felt more at home. Can you imagine that about 5 years ago moving to Denmark was crossing our mind?

Anyhow, good luck and keep going.

:cheers JohnZ
