Welcome to SAipan, USA. You should be able to build a decent life here. Yes, it's hot and humid, but you NEVER have to shovel SNOW! It's small, you can adjust. Once you establish a routine and get everyone acclimated to living just 15ºN of the equalor, life will be quieter, calmer and far, far away from the stresses of the political RAT-RACE. I shouid know, I came here with my grandfather - 13 YEARS ago. ~Alexa Shaw, Just A Simple Photographer.

I remember when I was a lil girl visiting this zoo. There were very few animals and the shark tank did not have a barrier around it.

Whatever happens in your future,best wishes, and well done on making and fulfilling your ambitions of living here. It’s a hard journey moving to somewhere else and living in a new culture, away from friends and family back home. NZ is very far away and no quick trip back home for a short catchup whenever you want. Takes some time to settle in, may your new lives be all you hope for and more.

Why the melancholic music and tone in the beginning.. felt like a sad tale beginning
@vonmehrenproductions8577 Жыл бұрын
There is a documentary on Netflix called the octopus teacher.. and I was heavily inspired by that for our documentary. For us.. we faced a lot of negativity about this move and it was sad in a way.. but we also knew that this would bring new opportunities to pursue our dreams. So I think I was in that mindset with the music.. it was scary and hard in the beginning then happy at the end.
