Living one great, big adventure in New Zealand!

Happy 7 Months Anniversary, Auckland!

We’ve had such a fun last 7 months! What an adventure it is to be in New Zealand!

We’ve been able to cram so many adventures into the last seven months that it feels like we’ve been here for a couple years already.

We’ve met so many people who have invited us into their homes, we’ve grown closer in community at C3 church, have enjoyed random adventures with new friends, and have gained a huge appreciation for the Kiwi culture. Our experience here wouldn’t be half of what it is without these wonderful people!!!

Today I want to reflect and share some highlights.

Here is a list of our adventures (you can click on each individual adventure to read that post):

1. November:

And just for your amusement. This is not an announcement, just a fun meme. I got two twin eggs in a row not too long ago. Haha.

What an awesome last 7 months. Great to reflect and see how much we’ve done. We’re so fortunate and are so grateful to have this opportunity.

We love and miss you all in the USA!
