Moving/New to Christchurch?

Postby Melza7 » Wed Aug 27, 2008 9:28 pm

HI ya!

Maybe you are moving/just moved to Christchurch, or maybe you are just wanting to make some new friends?

I am 29 years old, my boyfriend is 32, (been together 8 years! Both kiwis) just seeing if there are any other females or couples out there that just want a friend to chat with, go for a cuppa, dinner, movies or clubbing.

I work at a real estate company in administration, love meeting new people (have met a few online now!), fave music – 80’s, Robbie Williams, Madonna, U2, Crowded House, (kiwi sounds) Jack Johnson, dance.lots of music actually!, like travelling, (went on a roadtrip in USA for 4 weeks), lived in Canada for a year, cooking, watching rugby, movies, face-book.

While living in Canada I had only couple of friends, and found it really tough & lonely being in a new city, so I thought I would come on here and see if anyone is in the same boat as I was there and looking for a new friend – I have made some awesome friends off the internet!

trying to move to christchurch

Postby mcxl5 » Thu Sep 25, 2008 12:27 pm

hello there. my girlfriend and i are trying to pick up and move to christchurch from toronto. are there a lot of jobs there (for foreigners)? we heard it is relatively easy to get a visa there. any advice on making the move easier? i work in property management and have studied urban planning. she is in advertising. any help you could offer would be great! we're in the early stages of planning this so we are still trying to gather information.

thank you,
matt

I have been courted by a church in Christchurch for about 2 years now; almost took them up on it but got cold feet. Last year I went to Auckland on holiday and found it a bit boring (well a lot boring actually) - how does Christchurch compare?
