christchurch



My thoughts have been with those in Christchurch for the past six days and all that they have been going through. Watching the images on the news every night has been heartbreaking, and with the death toll currently at 148 confirmed deaths and the vast amount of damage left behind it is hard to fathom how the city will be able to get back on its feet. However seeing the resilience and strength of the quake survivors and witnessing the way the New Zealanders throughout the country have pulled in to offer help and support in innumerable ways has been amazing and touching and makes me proud to be living in this country.
