We’ve now been here in Auckland, New Zealand for a month and we’re both doing good. We’ve found jobs and have just (this past weekend) moved to a much nicer apartment than the one we first stayed at. It didn’t all start out that easily though….and we encountered our first …
Since Queensland doesn’t use daylight savings time, people from New South Wales (and Victoria as well) say that when you cross the border you have to turn your clock back 1 hour + 10 years. People there are supposedly crazy. This has been one of the reasons that I’ve wanted …

New York, New York, here we are….. Our first stop in the city was Brooklyn. We went to visit my cousin Veronica and she showed us around Brooklyn by night and day. It was lots of fun and interesting as well. Suz had never been to New York before and …
