Probably not a place one would want to self isolate.

Perhaps a tower of some kind - with a lift, obviously & perhaps a rooftop garden.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)

Well, this Greenie is very happy with her tiny space. Lesson learned, we really do not need five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a triple garage in order to be happy.

I never said we did.

Issues with dampness. Lefties wouldn't like that.

A leafy suburb of Auckland with a great mountain where when I was somewhat younger would side down the slopes on cardboard

I was a Hobbit. I have lived in many places, but never a Hobbit hole.

We have retired to Blenheim from Auckland to be nearer to our grandchildren.

I loved Blenheim. Nice and flat. Lovely people. Terrible medical services. Excellent wineries. Perfect weather...

And the tap water was like champagne.

You got that exactly right.
It is the one, and probably only, negative about living here.
As a cancer patient,(referred from Auckland) it has been a challenge.
we now go to Nelson and Christchurch for those requirements.

It is the reason I left and came back to Auckland. Down there I was told I was too young for the hip replacement I needed, back here I was in theatre within three months.

Pity, I would have loved to be able to stay. Gardening in that climate was fabulous.

Me too.

Originally from Taranaki, we moved to the Sunny Bay of Plenty in 2004 and built a home in Welcome Bay Tauranga.
