Behind The Scenes Episode 2: Sonny at 20
Hello and welcome back! This is the second (of an experimental) six-part series. A behind the scenes podcast where we go deeper into our family life and share some things that we think (we hope!) you might be interested in and may help you.
So many of you have asked us to talk more about personal matters: being a parent, traveling the world, homeschooling, starting online businesses and so here we are.
In this episode, we catch up with Sonny. If you are a long time listener of this podcast you will know that Sonny is our son. It was Sonny’s idea, way back in 2018 (when he was a wee 17 year old) to start this podcast that you are listening to right now.

We kick off the series with our gorgeous teenage (and usually very private) daughter talking about being seventeen.
WEIRD Facts About New Zealand (That Don’t Involve Sheep).
You don’t have to look far to find some New Zealand facts. We all know about the sheep population and the fact that Rotorua smells of eggs, but what about the other stuff? What about the WEIRD New Zealand facts?
The stuff you only find when you dig your gumboots in a little deeper?
Fitting into New Zealand. (As told by a real kiwi bloke).
If you are moving to New Zealand there are things you’ll want to know. Like how to fit in and get along. And who better to answer that question than a true, born and bred New Zealander.
Today we are thrilled to be chatting with Gordy. A real kiwi bloke.
Why is New Zealand SO Expensive? (Or is it?…)
Why is New Zealand so expensive? Is everything in New Zealand expensive? Why do things cost so much in New Zealand?
These are questions that we hear a lot from people overseas.
So in this week’s show, we thought we’d share seven things that we found to be far cheaper in New Zealand than in the UK.
Now then. I bet you weren’t expecting that were you…?
