Kia Ora, My wife and I are planning on returning to NZ to establish a hunting on horseback venture and outdoor recreation program for at-risk youth with our 3 boys. We are currently based in Brisbane and have narrowed our preferred locations to either Methven or Oxford. We seek an "Old Skool" community with traditional values where residents support and nurture each other like we used to do back in the day. We also breed and train operational dogs for government agencies and desire to be involved in NZ Land Search and Rescue Dogs. We appreciate local insights and recommendations please as we haven't lived in NZ for almost 20 years and our nation has changed profoundly since our departure! Nga mihi nui, DJ, Kiri, Levi, Ammon and Zion James
