I'm very happy here

Re: Who is in NZ to stay?
Whilst I have no idea what life is going to throw at me, or what decisions I might make in the future, for now I'm happy & settled in NZ. Been here over 4 years, & had my moments, missing people & places from the UK, & odd episodes of "did we do the right thing?". But we have a good life here, great friends, secure jobs, comfortable home. And life's good.
So, for me, I think I'm here to stay. I hope that I'll be able to afford the occasional trip back to the UK for holidays, but I now consider NZ to be my home, & I'm happy here.

I am planning on staying. Though will be leaving and living elsewhere for two years before coming back again...

Temporarily back in the UK, but when I return to NZ, fully intend to stay for good. I'm UK born, but feel NZ is my 'spiritual' home. I miss being there enormously, and feel drawn back there. I'm lucky to have travelled extensively, but no-where else comes even close to NZ for me.
Sorry if I sound happy-clappy, but it really is how I feel about the place.

No plans to leave at all.
We even have quite far fetched discussions about downsizing in X years to pay for our retirement In NZ of course

Personally part of me would love to return to the Uk as I miss so much but I know deep down I would not be able to cope with the crowds. NZ is wonderful if only for its unpopulous nature.

Been in NZ for more than 9 years and it is a permanent move for us. This has been reinforced during my current visit back to the UK.

And I get amazing accomodation (house rental) for a fraction of the price you would in summer.

Ok, I know you can never say never but I have seen a few threads with people going back to the UK.
Just wondering who here, unless something totally unforeseen happens of a very dramatic nature, has no plans to live permanently in the UK but plans to remain in NZ til the end of their days if at all possible?
Just curious...
