Reflections. One month.

Yesss, it's been a month already. One month ago. We packed up some essential stuff, got on the plane in full swing European summer, flew some 30 hours, crossed the whole world and arrived to our destination: winter wonderland in the Southern Hemisphere. And to my moments of inspiration :)

Here are 13 little stories, impressions & a recap of our 1st month in New Zealand. 

  1. The beaches are fascinating. We came to live by the beach. We are currently on a mission: "every day on the beach" ;)
  2. Got over the jetlag in around 10 days. An experienced friend told us: count 1 day for 1 hour time zone difference - 12 hours in plus - kind of reasonable, right??
  3. Traded my French lipstick for a Kiwi raincoat. (Ok, the lipstick is still with me for emergency situations...)
  4. 2/3 of the family went for fishing already. Guess who!
  5. Never seen so many dogs in my life. And so many restaurants offer water for these thirsty puppies in a bucket next to the tables. Cute!
  6. You can see the Rangitoto volcano from basically every window on the North Shore. It's like the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
  7. Auckland has its Sky Tower, too! Turned 18 years old this month! I love to take pictures of it.
  8. Went to learn about sustainability in a surf paradise, and enjoyed huge walks on beautiful, massive beaches - almost all by ourselves...
  9. Beaches are amazing. Have I already mentioned?? My photo storage is always full...
  10. Met some amazing people, yet missed the loved ones on the other side of the world. :(
  11. Got terribly homesick after the 2nd week, and couldn't even enjoy the most beautiful place in the world for some time. But finally in the spirit of "this too, shall pass", managed to draw some conclusions while watching myself grow inside, yey!
  12. Enormously enjoying green-lipped mussel and funny enough, chai latte tasting. :)
  13. Found a new home. Toured plenty of furniture stores already. There is no IKEA here. Everything is really expensive. Next time we will not leave them behind. Anyways. Can't wait to decorate it and make it feel like a real home :)
