A new country, a new start. Three days ago I arrived in New Zealand. I was wondering how I would introduce this country to you. It is a very peaceful country, far away in a very quiet corner of the globe. When browsing New Zealand news on the web, I was always surprised that stories of escaped pets would make national headlines. When getting off the plane in Auckland, different kinds of headlines were screaming at me: Terror on Bali! The Bali bombings happened thousands of kilometers away, but the Kiwi's are shocked. As a bus driver told me, “that was too close to home”!
