Introduction
My family and I left South Africa in September 2007 as we where getting tired of the crime and been locked in our home like prisoners behind bars. Not once have we said we where sorry to be in NZ, and we would do it all again in the blink of an eye. Although we will never forget SA, we love our new home and friends and have never looked back!
I joined expat.com on 09 March 2010.

Freedom it offers my kids, great schools, excellent outdoor life, relatively crime free
Old housing - cold in winter. But upgrades and new houses are a lot warmer and dry in winter.

The weather.
Extremely high violent crime rate and bars on the doors and windows to keep criminals out.
