2008-01-18 Why New Zealand?
Because it is there!
Since the day I started to think about moving to New Zealand (approximately one year ago), people kept on asking that very question. Why New Zealand. And all I could come up was this Malloryesque reply. Pretty lame, even for my standards.
To see if I can make it.
Start from scratch. No friends, no familiar faces, no memories, no obligations.
Because it's as far away as you can get.
So there's no temptation to fly home over the weekend. Even the stars are different from down here! What's the point of moving to another country if everything stays the same?
Why not?
Indeed. Why not?

Oh look, it's Random Picture That's Got Nothing To Do With The Post Day! Which reminds me: I finally finished the Flickr Philippines set.

I thought you moved there to get a new accent?
And hell of an accent that's going to be... sweet as!
Oh, look what I just found!
I just realized that my zodiac year is sheep. Maybe that's why ;-)
