This is the yet unfinished story of a German - Spanish couple with five children who left their home in Germany to widen their horizon at the other end of the world - New Zealand. They moved from Mainhardt (Lkr Schwäbisch Hall, Baden-Württemberg) to spend 2+ years in Thames (Coromandel, Waikato, North Island) in September 2010.

Assimilation
We were so proud when we watched our son Luis (13) in this Haka competition of different schools. They made the second place among I think about seven different schools, although there were the only culturally and racially mixed team and many of them had never been taught the Haka before. Haka is the Maori war dance, but the performance also included welcoming dances. Luis was one of the dance leaders, and when he was about to perform his solo part we heard some of the audience shouting: Luis, the German!
