After several years living in Auckland, and a couple more overseas, I am once again a resident of my hometown, Christchurch, New Zealand.
The city, and probably I, have undergone a metamorphosis since I last lived here in 2006. An earthquake (or more accurately a series of earthquakes) has changed the city beyond recognition. Yet, I was drawn back here, ready to make my mark on a city I love and cherish.
The last time that I lived here I was a fresh faced and bushy tailed graduate, in my final year of university. Not entirely sure what the world had in store for me, I was nevertheless ready to take it on.
Close to 7 years later I'm not quite as fresh faced, nor as bushy tailed, but still filled with a deep sense of optimism and hope for this city and my life.
I have blogged a little in the past, and have enjoyed the experience. I can't promise what this blog will be about, or entail. I'm currently living alone, the first time I have, and I intend to treat this blog as the flatmate or person one would normally share stories with at the end of the day.
Happy reading.
