Thanks for checking out our blog! It was a tough to leave one that I have been using since pregnant with Adelyn (www.xanga.com/kklunman), but it is time to modernize! I will be using this blog to keep you all posted on any interesting happenings down under.
First, a little background. We have been chatting about moving to New Zealand since a visit there in 2006 - though weren't exactly sure when or what it would look like. After a trip back to BC in 2009 we were struck at how we missed mountains, hiking, natural beauty, etc... but weren't ready to return just yet (after 2.5 years in Ottawa). Now for anyone that knows me, adventure chats aren't just that - plans must be hatched, actions must be taken.
Sold the house, check. Sold ALL of our furniture and belongings, check. Resigned from work (Kyle), check. Booked flights, check. Residency permits, check. Ummmm...work? home? car? TBD friends. Kyle has some meetings lined up for when we arrive and I am working on the rental situation. We are trusting that all will fall into place. Armed with 4 suitcases a stroller and 2 carseats - we are almost set to go! I will upload pictures as often as I can - thanks for joining us on our adventure!

Hey! Congrats on the big leap. Melissa and I have been chatting recently of a similar move, but not so geographically extreme. Beautiful family pic to launch the blog. Well done!!
Have fun and hit those mountains! I can hear the jingle of your climbing gear...
Can you believe my harness doesn't even fit in the suitcase? All I am taking are some climbing shoes - perhaps solo free climbing will appeal...? ;)
We'll definitely be reading your blogs..:)
Make sure to say hi to Frodo and Bilbo Baggins for me! :P
