Default Hello Everyone :-) Homesick kiwi here

Hey Everyone,so gald i found this site.We have been livng in Perth for 5 months now and it really is beautiful and the people are friendly BUT its not my home or where family is.We moved here to try and get ahead.
I am really homesick and wanna come home but i hear that there is not much work for my husband anymore,he is a plasterer...if anyone knows if this is true or not PLEASE let me know.We used to live in a small town called Warkworth (north of Auckland).

Its amazing how much you take for granted and its not untill you move that you realize this...i just hope work comes up in NZ then i can convince my husband to move back...

Has NZ got any harder in the short 5months that we have been gone?

Be so nice to chat to some kiwis and i look forward to it...Bye for now

Hey Pebbles!

Glad you found us.

My brother is in Perth at the moment.. hoping to come back to NZ int he next couple of months.

I know Warkworth.. I come from Kaitaia, but traveled through many times ont he way to Auckland, where I am now.

NZ.. harder? Well, looks like mr Key is in with a shot, we'll be less soft then.

Oh, we had several murders in Jan...

Oh Perth I LOVE perth, my sister lives there, my dad lived there for ages and has just recently moved back. I reckon it is a great place to live... if I had to choose somewhere else to live in the world I would probably choose perth.

I love the south west, did a big trip down there the b place down there with the dolphins was great.

We have family friends who live in Perth - sounds like a great place to live, I don't think I could handle the heat!
