    Thank you all for the kind words and welcomes. This will be a multi year deal but we are focused and have money saved to make the change if we decide to do so. I'd rather not talk politics but I'd strongly argue with whoever said that YOUR country is going to hell and they'd swap places with me!!
    But here...why do we want to come there? Because no one here is gettin out alive...and I want more for my wife and daughters.
    This is the greatest hunting picture/experience that I've ever had and likely will ever have....it was just the two of us eating candy and then this dude came along.

    Staying out of politics is a good idea. Stick to hunting and shooting

    That is a myth. They are only on the far end of Farewell Spit. Oh and welcome aboard Joe.

    Welcome, Northland has a place called "NIWA" lots of fishy research going on there, and a high population of beer connesurs, most highly rated beer is lion red.

    There are good buggers everywhere in NZ, you can't miss

    Welcome Joe,we helped 2 families from South Africa we worked with shift out ,IMO you need to be contacting prospective employers & sussing out what additional training you can both take on to make your applications/enquiries for employment from ho hum, to how soon can you get here. Good Luck & good on you for having a crack

    If it wasn't for the winter, I'd be living in NZ as well
    South Island mate, u wanna live in south island. Slow down , go fly fishing the rivers . Best place in the world to holiday, high cost of living and relative low pay compared to their northern cousins in oz
    However , the possible lifestyle if u into hunting and fresh water fishing...
    Their salt water fishing is fairly average...

    ;p
