Smile My New Zealand Visa has been accepted!



My NZ visa has been accepted which means I can now head off to NZ any time between now and this time next year. I will hopefully be heading over there in January, but am toying with the idea of going sooner, maybe before Christmas.

I shall not be basing my travels there on a reality show. I am my own adventurer and will be taking everything New Zealand has to offer, hopefully including working with some Maori poets/performers.

That's cool

What sort of visa is it? Like, a permanent one or temporary?

Have fun whenever you decided to go out!

A working holiday visa to start with, but I'll go from there depending on what happens and how far I get with my writing project.

I think I might just kill you and keep you in my freezer. If I can't have you then no body can.
