Hi all, I am am moving to Wellington later this year with my new Kiwi wife! I am keen to make new friends, ideally around my age out there and jump in at the deep end when it comes to socialising. Also would love to chat to people who could keep me informed about job openings and advice when it comes to moving.

Im 26 and am due to leave the British army in June. I originally come from Liverpool (Everton fan though!) and am now living in south London.

Hi

Hope you have a good time in New Zealand, I'm sure you will love it. Once you get there I would reccomend joining some sports teams if you play, easist way for guys to meet friends :)

There are quite a few social teams around wellington for various sports, they play after work most of the time.  I never played as I don't really like team sports but most of my friends were in some team or other.

Good luck
