6 Months In Already - Where's the time gone?!
It really doesn't seem that long ago that we first found this site, and I was asking about what to bring, which movers to use, where to live etc.
And now we've been here for six months already!
We can't quite believe it, as the time has gone just sooooo quickly. We've had ups and downs, we've bought land, we've got work, a car, a flat, we live in a great place, we're getting to know people, and overall are very happy with the move so far. Good eh?
The path ahead is still a steep one, but we've got the energy to keep on climbing, and we know that the view from the top will be well worth all the effort.
Keep on dreaming people.

Thanks!
That was the original reason for the purchase, with the second reason to buy as an investment - although with interest rates where they are now just bunging it in a bank would have also been a safe bet!
You got it! Good luck with all that is to come
Cheers

Re: 6 Months In Already - Where's the time gone?!
I can't beleive how much you two have done already in the time you've been here
And I know that you both say on your blog that you suffer with terrible homsickness at times ( who doesn't !) but you would never guess from your postings; they are always upbeat & optomistic. Long may it last, you deserve it just for your attitude towards this whole experience
Karma to you both

Congratulations and thanks for showing us still in the UK that it is possible!
I'm rather keen to get our there ASAP, especially after reading your blog. If I could drop a dress size or two after six months in NZ, I would definitely think the move was worthwhile!

Thanks very much- it encourages us to keep it up!
