Hope all is going well for you. It is hard sometimes when people go on about NZ being Godzone. I too quite like my life here, married a kiwi, but I know there are so many things that just can't compare to Canada. Even the scenery here , although it is lovely, has nothing on Vancouver Island and the west coast where I grew up.
Oh well I do like looking at Rangitoto!

And bears. I also miss bears. And certain bird songs. The smell of autumn leaves. On the other hand, there's no snow to speak of. That's a plus.
I don't know that I'll ever get over it. I think this is year ten for me, or eleven. I think it would be useful to fly back to Canada for a vist; that would probably get me over most of it but it's way too expensive to do that.
As long as I don't think about Canada too much I'm pretty content.
