One of the
countries that I admire when it comes to natural scenery is New Zealand, its
vast lands with picturesque view of mountains and greenery have been used
mostly as backdrop of Hollywood movies where I had my first glimpse of its
magnificent beauty.
New Zealand is a
progressive and modern country but less population compared to other countries
that are also progressive. With their
population they are open to migrants who wish to live and work in their
country. Two of my colleagues in College
whom I lost contact for so long when we had each our own jobs after graduation
and due to technology brought about by social media like Facebook, I stumbled over
their account when I searched in their names. One is now living in Auckland and
the other is in Wellington, they are an immigrant there with permanent residency
status. Even though they live in a
separate location they meet and spend vacation together and of course I cannot
resist myself to peek on their albums in Facebook when they post their travels like
their experience in Sky Tower at Auckland, which has captivating sight at night
when it lit up and illuminates the tower, their stay in a beach front lodge in AbeTasman
National Park at the South island of New Zealand.

Because they knew
very well that New Zealand is in my bucket list so they are persuading me to apply
as immigrant with my family. My friends are encouraging me to settle and live
there for they assured me that there are Banking jobs available which I could apply
to and if income would not suffice daily expenses it could be filled in with Temp jobs from a large and established company. Owning a house would be easy because there are also companies offering Home Loans to immigrants, and would you believe that some companies can pre-approve your loan just be you land on their country? All you have to do is contact beforehand a home loan specialist and they would give you the details of their requirements. One of my
friends there who work in a Web Video Production company vouched that as long as you have
job there in New Zealand you are already financially capable to pay for a home loan.
With this
proposition from my friends in New Zealand, I am now contemplating if I would
just be a traveler or a settler in a foreign land, where for many aspiring migrants
look up to as the land of milk and honey.
