Big news!

by kai on 17/10/2005

Good news everybody! Today is one of the top 5 days in my life! And I want you to share this with me, so here are the big good news: Today my wife and I have been granted with the permanent residency for New Zealand. We're just staying in the US for MAX 2005 and we've got hit and a bit surprised by the email we've got from our immigration consultant down in Auckland. This is SOOOOO COOL!

There's a pretty long story to tell about that and I've become an expert in NZ immigration law as well during the last months, but I don't have the time to explain all that right now.

Additionally there are a bunch of consequences related with this news - in terms of working, blogging, living - for example that we're going to move to NZ and some more stuff - I'm going to report about that pretty soon, believe me!

Again: This is SOOOO cool!!!

I do not know whether this is a good news for German community or not but I wish really good luck in your new life in NZ! And I really wonder why NZ? Why not USA, Canada or even Australia?
