Christchurch

Kate picked us up at the airport as Heidi the recruiter we have dealt with for the past ten months had been transferred to Auckland. She took us for a brief tour of Christchurch but soon realized we were knackered and dropped us of at 287 Barbadoes Street our shared home for the next month. Our roommates were four young women from Chile in Christchurch to learn English, Anita, Lorena, Sophie, and Carolina, Gonzalo from Argentina, Songho from Korea, Linde from the Netherlands, Georgia and Debbie from the UK, Claire from Scotland, Laurent from Switzerland, and Mark from Wellington the local skydiving and bungee expert. As well there were a number of boyfriends and hangers on to keep the week-end interesting. A very energetic and eclectic group.
