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.

Another Winter
This winter shows itself as a mix of days that make you acknowledge global warming, and very cold days, where in the mornings there is even ice on the water in the potholes.
I commute to work now with one of my e-bikes. 4 km.
We are still on the market every Saturday. The rental market is very quiet at the moment, so I make use of the time and plan the future - will I be able to build up a network of rental stations?
Doctoring is stressful at the moment. I would like to have more time for every patient, but as long as I work employed I have to satisfy my employer as much as the patient.
Lucas has won a gold medal with his football team - they were first in NZ in a competition in Wellington. After some rather unlucky moments a big restoration! Clara has moved into her new little flat in Auckland and will start at Uni again next week.
Generally spoken, all good here.
