Crazy Canuck and the Oz + NZ

3 years 1 week ago #717123 by Nikon Shooter
I have two mentorees in Oz (♀ + ♂) and one in NZ (♂).

Many things are different with these guys:
  • their respective accent
  • other hemisphere and time zone > +10 ~ 14h
  • I love my winters and the Ozzies their hot outbacks
  • fauna and flora, we have more water bodies and they more sand.
  • etc, etc…
Many similarities as well:
  • we all love the diversity of our societies
  • I dig studying the Aborigines as they do our Natives
  • same scandals in our churches
  • periodic wildfires
  • etc, etc…
These days, I watch the AU and NZ news online and learn from the 3, their
opinions on their actualities, political and cultural issues and… China. 

What triggered this post is both China's ways in the SE Asia/Oceania and the
idea of a planetary association between All four: AU + NZ + GB + Canada.

I have to admit I am honoured to have friends downunder.

Light is free… capturing it is not!
