What a wonderful write up ❤️ I'm a friend who moved to New Zealand (although I wasn't moving 'home') and it's been really hard. Friendships change; they become digital, and planned instead of real time and spontaneous. It's a different way of doing it, and although still great, I do miss the little things, like meeting for a cuppa in a cafe or doing an activity together. Catch ups can become progress updates on video.

oh tara, thank you so much for sharing. i love your idea of progress updates on video! i hadn't thought of that and i'm definitely going to try it. change is so necessary for all of us isn't it, but it doesn't mean that it's easy! sending lots of love to you and all your friendships too. 🫶
