This is the story of Will, Ira and Vera. A family who moved to New Zealand from the USA to start a new life.

Will and Ira are longtime members of our private NZ Ahead community. They are precious.

Things have not been a bed of roses for this young family of three, but they are determined to make it work, so when Will was offered a job in the South Island of New Zealand (Invercargill), they packed their bags, left Auckland and drove South.

Three months later, they moved again. Their plans changed, and they are now living in Palmerston North on the North Island of New Zealand.

This is the story of Will and Ira, who wanted to relocate to New Zealand, and how their life looks so far. In this episode, they share (very honestly) how they are juggling parenthood, striving to find a job, the importance of community, grieving the life they left behind and lots more.

If you have ever wondered how to move in New Zealand (what that looks like in terms of rentals and jobs etc) then you will love this podcast episode.

From a family who are determined to find a way to stay in New Zealand, this is the story of Ira and Will.
