Hello
We are moving to NZ on the 20th November. Leave the UK on the 5th and head home via the US.
Excited but also sad. Have used this site for loads of info before now and need to introduce myself. Any way it is me, OH and our 4 yo son.

Re: Hello
As you say 'heading home' I take it you're a NZ'er?

Re: Hello
Thanks Old Sparkles
Yes you are right I am a kiwi returning home with my husband a South African and our son. I have lived in the UK since 1996 so are very sad to be leaving and do consider myself a half expat (I guess). Oh well time for a new adventure.

Re: Hello
North Island where the family are - but will hope to find jobs in Auckland as after London anywhere else might be too small.
Son will love it I think especially being so near the beach. Well it's what I missed!!

Re: Hello
Thanks everyone. Time really going fast now. We fly out on 5th via America so are looking forward to a wee holiday on the way over to just chill for a bit.
