So now that I’ve been here a week, it’s high time for an update. So far pretty good, the only issue is constant tiredness at the moment. Hardly the fault of NZ though. The five hour time difference from Wellington makes enough of a difference. Combine that with a lot of trouble sleeping at the moment, some sinus problems and a bit of a cold and it’s a laugh that I’m not in bad humour.
Work wise (the reason I’m actually here), everything is pretty good. The people we’re dealing with are clued in and capable of arriving at decisions a lot quicker than other people we often deal with. They’re also providing great food for the workshops so that’s really helped keep us happy and willing to do various bits and pieces.
Out and about in Wellington it makes a nice change from Singapore, back to casual conversations with people in stores and seeing a generally friendly attitude. Makes a change and TG has been slagging me – only fair considering I was really slagging his love of SQ on the way down.
Food has been great, obviously the style here suits my palate anyway, but the choice of fresh foods is great. More on the food in another post.
