They call them New Zealand Christmas trees here. Only been living here in NZ for three months, but they certainly seem very jolly and festive. Beautiful trees.

From the UK. Fancied a big change. So far it's been everything we hoped it would be.

I'm happy for you, I know how hard it is to move to a new place, I moved to America from Belgium with my family when I was only 12 years old, and didn't speak a work of English, good thing kids learn so easy with school, enjoy your new place, Annie
