Yes it is hard, it takes time i guess. What did you struggle with (if you don't mind me asking?)

Mine did emigrate, they emigrated here. What were they thinking?!

It's all about the bikes
Just emigrated to NZ, and my first day at work was today. The whole country is so refreshing. Everything is clean, the people are nice and I've not seen a single sheep yet.

I'll look after the skirt
You may not see too many sheep in Downtown Auckland but when you go beyond the Metropolis, they are there a plenty.
I spent 18 months working in NZ years ago. I'm sure its changed lots. People make comments about it being behind the times. Not so much that, but its 'different'. Like all countries, it has its unique character.
Many people emigrate for the wrong reasons. Other's think it will be just like 'home' but with a warmer climate & higher standard of living. They are often disappointed & realise the grass isn't always greener. Its a choice that needs a lot of thought. When people start making comparisons, ie: this isn't as good as we get back home or yearning for Marks & Spencer or Tesco products, that is often the start of a return ticket for many.
To anyone who is under the age of 30 & has the opportunity of a working holiday in Australia, New Zealand or Canada, I would say go for it. The same rules apply - Make sure you do your homework first. Most countries have quota's now for TWP applicants. Anyone interested needs to find out when the books open for applications.
Sounds like you've hit the ground running anyway. Good luck, hope it works out.
