Last week's thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

Something interesting that happened to you
Something humourous that happened to you
Something frustrating that happened to you
A quick question
A request for recommendations
Pictures of your pet
A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Stuck in interviews all week. Trying to find somebody to help with my project. Is a full time job right now. In other news, we are buying a boat and planning on living on it. All the inspections have been organised this week so we are one step closer and I’m really excited!

Wow, that's awesome. Anywhere in particular you want to sail to, or will it be a park up in a marina kind of thing?

We are buying the boat along the east coast of America so we are going to hopefully start by exploring the north of the east coast/Canada and then head down to the Caribbean for Christmas. After that, who knows. Fun fact: she was a marker boat for the Americas cup in NZ so she can certainly get us back home if we muster up the confidence!

That's so cool! Keep us updated with your travels, if you'd be up for that - I'm sure a lot of us here would find it really interesting.
