Our last day in NZ

Hi All,

So, today is our last day in New Zealand.
It seems like not too long ago that Gay and I were talking on the phone in San Francisco and she, frustrated with her job, jokingly said to me "You know, we should just pack everything up and move to like New Zealand or something." Something about her suggestion resonated with me and of course, as we all know, the rest is history.
So would I do it all again? Of course, in heartbeat, and one day we just may (Japan is top of my list). But for right now the best thing for me is to get back to where home is, get reacquainted with family and friends and get back in touch with what it's like to be an American citizen.

The process of beginning new
One of the things I'm looking forward to is taking the steps of forming a life for myself in a new place. Simple stuff like where I'm going to live, what kind of job to get and all the new friendships and situations that result of large scale changes.
It'll be the fourth time for me doing such a thing, the most exciting, of course, was doing it here in Nelson where everything was new. But this time around, in San Francisco with the idea of Gay and I being husband and wife, will make it all the more special.
So we're starting the process by scanning craigslist for apartments, both cringing at the cost and giddy at the thought of sharing our own place together.

The blog
I think I'm just going to keep this blog going to document the next bits in our lives even though the first part of the URL, "nzmove", isn't semantically relevant. So keep checking back once in awhile and see how we're getting on.

Bye New Zealand
