It’s true. We’re leaving New Zealand and we’re off to travel Europe for 6 months.
For ages, I’ve been dying to share this news with you—this big news.
But I’ve been putting it off.
In this very frank and open behind-the-scenes podcast we reveal why.
Turning your back on the American dream for a new life in New Zealand.
Is it possible, for a couple in their late fifties to leave everything behind, move to the other side of the world and create a new life in New Zealand?
It certainly is. Not only is it possible but, according to some, it is what keeps you young and life exciting!
In this week’s show, I talked with Sheri. Sheri was the director of a hospital in the USA. She and her husband Dan spent the past thirty years building a comfortable life together for themselves and their family.
And then two of her children moved to New Zealand and took the grandchildren with them.
So what did Dan and Sheri do? They stepped out of the American dream and they followed their hearts. They opted for an adventure. They started all over again.
This is their story.
I have heard it said many times that Canada is New Zealand on steroids. The mountains, the lakes, the beaches, the space. Canada has exactly what New Zealand has only it’s…Canadian. So where should you live? Canada or New Zealand?
In this week’s show, we are excited to introduce Randy and Suzanne, a couple who have lived together in Ontario Canada, for the past thirty years. Randy is Canadian and Suzanne is a kiwi. She was born in New Zealand, moved to Canada when she was seventeen years old. She met Randy, fell in love, and the rest is history!
But. The story doesn’t end there.
Later this year, Randy and Suzanne are going to leave Canada for good and retire in New Zealand
You are about to find out why…
There’s a quote that I love: ‘Incredible things can be done simply if we are committed to making them happen.’
This week, Brian and I are excited to share the details of something that we have been working on for weeks. Something that we know is going to benefit all of our moving to New Zealand community immensely.
Wherever you are on your moving to New Zealand adventure, whatever stage of the game you’re in, the news we are about to share will make you feel very special – because this involves you!

I don’t want to give too much away so off you go and listen to the show. We’d love it if you emailed us at [email protected] and let us know your thoughts and reaction to this announcement. It’s been a long time in the planning but, like you, we decided that if you want something to change then you have to go out there and make it happen! Yipppeeee!
Do you dream of moving to New Zealand? Were you born in NZ and now live elsewhere? Or maybe you already live in Aotearoa. Whichever you are you are going to love this week’s show as we dive in and share: You know you’re a kiwi when…

Living in New Zealand. What The First 6 Months Were REALLY Like.
In this week’s show, we are happy to welcome back Maile and Brian!
This American couple left the US almost six months ago to start a new life in Dunedin, New Zealand. They are happy with their decision (in fact, I have never met two people so in love with a country) but their journey certainly wasn’t all plain sailing.
Enjoy!
