Miracles. My adult nephew got his 5yo son a Scout PenPal in Australia, intending as a side-effect to show the kid how big the world is. They live near Toronto, Canada. Long story short - the little Australian PenPal is now the step-son and his Mom is now a married Canadian citizen. It only took them $10,000 CAD in phone bills alone, not to mention 6 years after application. They got married in Niagara Falls. They are living happily, happily, happily ever after!

Mick Gordon.

In case anyone here doesn't know who he is, he's an Australian video game composer. One of my favorites, in fact - his composing work is nothing short of phenomenal.

Sonny and Skippy (how I wanted to spend my days with my pets and adventures and not having to go to school and skip radio school just like he did much of the time!)

A wonderful place to call home. :D

People look same as New Zealanders, but more happy and drinking a lot.
