Castle Rock, CA

Hello there..

In 2013 I had just finished teaching English overseas for a year. Without a plan I moved to the Bay Area looking for my next thing. And that’s around when I met Pete.

4 years, 3 moves, and a whole lot of adventures later, here I am on one of the biggest adventures of all… living in New Zealand.

I’m excited to share the ups, the downs, and the lessons learned throughout my expat journey.

Mini restaurant review: Commi recently opened in Sydenham, offering its own take on Vietnamese street food. I came in with low expectations (really not a fan of the name/theme) but their food is some of the best I’ve had in Christchurch. Highlights included the alternative beef rendang and dim sum. Great for a date night or catch up with friends. It’s also conveniently next door to @moonunderwaternz if you find yourself thirsty after your meal. 🥟🍻 . . . . . #adventureswithpete #datenight #restaurantreview #dining #vietnamese #nzeats #newzealand #eat #nom #commi #neweats #blogger #expat #review #sydenham #christchurch #christchurcheats @christchurchfoodguide
