After spending 7 years travelling around the world, I met Shelley on the way back from Scotland. She had just returned to New Zealand from the UK. It was love at first site, well for me anyway. She took a bit more convincing. A year later we were planning our wedding. I stayed at home long enough for Eli to be born, and then the travel bug hit again, Shelley was itchy first, then a job offer came up that sounded too good to be true so we sold the house and said goodbye to NZ.
The problem with things that sound too good to be true is that they usually are. After 3 years of consant travel around Asia, we headed back to the Pacific, this time on separte countries (for a short while) so Shelley could work on her degree while I worked 18 hour days.
After 6 months of 2 hour phone calls at weekends, and the occasional long weekend in NZ we were all back together in yet another country - this time Australia.

Kids grow up so fast. What will you do when your child asks what life was like when he was young? I used to love looking at old black and white photos from when I was a kid, but mum and dad could never really remember who that was, or where it was taken...
