Where I'm From....


I was born in Christchurch, New Zealand some 32 years ago......here are a few shots of the place I called home for the first 24 years of my life........and in a way still do......

                  The Gondola, Port Hills, Christchurch                                  New Brighton Beach, Christchurch

    
                 The Avon River, Christchurch                                                 New Regent Street, Christchurch

    
                  Cashel Street Mall, Christchurch City                                  Floral Clock, Christchurch City

Christchurch, for obvious reasons is known as the "Garden City". It has a very English feel to it with many older historical buildings dating back to the late 1800's
Much of it's popularity is due to the fact that everything is within easy reach (much the same as all of New Zealand really). Skiing is only about 2 hours away by car, beaches only 15 or so minutes. The South Island of New Zealand abounds with many beautiful sights and sounds.
