Default Thinking about moving to NZ

Hi my name is Debbie, my family and I are considering moving to NZ in the near future. My husband and I are both 37 years old and we have two children aged 6 and 3. I am a lecturer at a University in the UK and my husband runs a business developing computer games. We were both brought up overseas and are now looking to provide our children with the same opportunities that we were given. We love the outdoor lifestyle and long to be living close to the sea again.

What I'm really looking for is any advice with regard to searching for employment and applying for visas etc. Also just general info on what it is like to live in NZ.

Many thanks

Debbie

Kia Ora .Lovely to have you here on this little NZ forum.

Try the Immy part of the forum for all things visa and for anything else there is the main NZ forum where most folks hang out.

Ask anything about anything.. All are friendly . Some are a wee bit bonkers & we are all happy to help if we can.
