Default I am new

I am new to this forum. Grew up in Whangarei then moved to Christchurch when I was 20. Lived here for 3 years then moved back home for a while. While I was home I realised how much I missed Christchurch so then decided to move back. I love it so much down here and have some awesome friends here. Would like some more though. Hope to make some friends soon.

and welcome to the forum.

There are a few members here who live in Christchurch. It seems to be a popular choice of place to live.

Victor, welcome to MoveToNZ.

You've chosen a lovely area to settle in. Good luck with the LTBV and also the bicycle shop. Our member Macfod, who is in Dunedin, also went the LTBV route and bought himself a cafe. If you bring up his username and look for all his posts you will be able to see how it went for him. I wouldn't read the threads about his staffing problems though. It would be enough to frighten anyone off employing people.

Keep us posted about your progress.
