Where do you all live?? - crafters_corner - 27-11-2021

I'm in Te Awamutu. Been here 5 years, but moving back to Hamilton within the next 2 years.

Christchurch - what's left of it.

But I grew up in the back of beyond, out in the country. Smile

You inspired me to ask this question actually. I read your post about the weather, and I thought, where are you. It's beautiful here.

Were you there when the quakes happened?

  Oh yes, I was - not fun.

No, it was just awful. Was your area safe?

My Dad was a Kiwi, born in Christchurch. My Grandmother is buried at Bromley cemetary. Would love to go down there sometime, and visit it.

Dunedin - as you might have guessed from my cafe picks.

Naki born and bred. Apart from a few stints out of province and living/working overseas I've tended to gravitate back to living under the mountain.

Auckland born and bred, spent a year in Palmy North, came back as fast as I could, went to Melbourne during the carless days thing, came home to Taupo, then back to Auckland - to the Shore this time, then to Blenheim, and now back to the Shore.

These days I'm up the hill from Devonport, and intend staying put for as long as I can. I counted up addresses once, and stopped at 44...

Christchurch here too...


RE: Where do you all live?? - Rumpelteazer - 27-11-2021

Katikati.

welcome bay

Have lived in several suburbs around Auckland but now on North Shore and don't really want to live anywhere else. It suits me fine - we have everything near us, beach, shops, reserves, medical facilities (important at our stage of life).


RE: Where do you all live?? - Oh_hunnihunni - 27-11-2021

I agree. Pretty much everything I need is within a half hour slow scooter ride, and the buses are okay for longer trips...

  Pretty patchy in our area, mostly OK though - unlike the poor sods in the red zone.

I live in a house. Unlike some greenies that still think a cave is the ideal location.


RE: Where do you all live?? - Oldfellah - 27-11-2021

Hamilton here

Well, this Greenie is very happy with her tiny space. Lesson learned, we really do not need five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a triple garage in order to be happy.

I've often thought a Hobbit hole would be comfortable to live in. That's a kind of cave.


RE: Where do you all live?? - TygerTung - 27-11-2021

Hobbit hole might have issues with dampness? Maybe OK if sufficiently ventilated.

As long as you have space for cameras.
