Default are they'rev any single 30ish year olds?

Hi everyone

I am looking to move to New Zealand to join my sister and her family within the next 12 months, however I am slightly concerned because of my age and status.

I visit New Zealand on a yearly basis, and feel there are a lot of families and worried, i wont settle because I dont have any friends out there.

Is there a website for young people to make new friends etc. etc?

Advice would be much appreciated

Hi Galaxy,

My hubby and I are in our late 20's with no kids and are moving out in a few weeks time. Bit of a diff situation as not single but we too will be hoping to make some friends near our own age too

My parents are over there and we have made friends with their friends and in turn their kids who are around our age. We keep in touch with them via a certain social networking site

We are hoping to meet people through work and nights out too... there are plenty of ways to do so hopefully!

Where abouts will you be heading?

Ah, that sounds great, my sister lives on the Hibiscus coast, but I am hopefully going to try for North Shore, so not far to Owera. I just need to finish my qualification and apply for jobs, once I receive a job offer then I will be on the next flight.

Which social networking sites do people use? I am just so scared that I dont make new friends! lol sad i know!

Hey there, I've been living on the North Shore a year and a half now. Was offered a job here whilst still in the UK and moved here on my own and am pleased to say it's all worked out very well

I'm also in my 30's and was a bit worried that I woudn't meet anyone too but am very lucky that working for a big company here, I made lots of friends quite quickly.

I think you're definatley better off living closer to the city if you're a single girl, a lot easier for nights out

Ah thanks, that makes me feel a lot better. Fingers crossed then I get a job offer, and then I will be here to join you guys. And maybe we could meet up for a coffee.
