Jan 1 &#8211; Dec 31 2015<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When Kathy E51CK and I [E51AND] first moved to the Cook Islands, it was our intent to stay. We sold our home and moved to Rarotonga knowing that we would have to wait five years, but that we could apply for residency &#8212; at which time we could buy a home outright and settle there.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, things have changed. In response to &#8220;public pressure&#8221; the government has placed a moratorium on new residency applications. So in spite of the fact that the Ministry of Education for whom Kathy works, many teachers, and many, many others would like us to stay on, without residency we are facing a substantial pay cut, and more importantly the loss of important medical benefits as Kathy&#8217;s current contract expires . . . . . . so life is at a crossroads . . . . we have no desire to leave paradise . . . . . . but we DO need a place we can call home.<\/p>\n<p>Last month we went on a \u201croad trip\u201d visiting Alberta, British Columbia and New Brunswick in Canada in search of a new place to live. We found it Fredericton, New Brunswick and will be moving there in the early New Year.<\/p>\n<p>Fredericton is a lovely city of around 60,000 people situated on the banks of the St. John river in Central New Brunswick. We found the people friendly, the community vibrant and healthy, and house prices affordable, so, while we are saddened at having to leave the tropical paradise that has been our home for the last five years, we are looking forward to the next great adventure in our lives. So listen for us from VE9 land! Sadly VE9AND is already allocated LOL!<\/p>\n<p>We will post a new QSL DIRECT address as soon as we are settled in Brunswick.<\/p>\n<p>73, Andy E51AND.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"td-tags td-post-small-box clearfix\">\n<li><span>TAGS<\/span><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dx-world.net\/tag\/e51and\/\">E51AND<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dx-world.net\/tag\/oc-013\/\">OC-013<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dx-world.net\/tag\/rarotonga\/\">Rarotonga<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dx-world.net\/tag\/south-cooks\/\">South Cooks<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><HR width=\"50%\"><br \/>\n<center><b><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><\/p>\n<h4>Version traduite en Fran\u00e7ais via Google Translate<\/h4>\n<p><\/span><\/b><\/center><br \/>\n<b><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"> Le 18 Octobre 2017<\/span><\/b><br \/>\n<center><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><\/p>\n<h4>[Going QRT] E51AND &#8211; Rarotonga<\/h4>\n<p><\/span><\/strong><\/center><\/p>\n<p>E51AND will QRT en deux semaines et se d\u00e9placer hors de l&rsquo;\u00eele en D\u00e9cembre.<\/p>\n<p>Journaux d&rsquo;Octobre 2013 ont \u00e9t\u00e9 mises en ligne Club Log et LoTW, mais les demandes de QSL DIRECT doivent \u00eatre re\u00e7us avant la fin de Novembre 2017.

Ainsi, en d\u00e9pit du fait que le minist\u00e8re de l&rsquo;Education pour qui travaille Kathy, de nombreux enseignants, et beaucoup, beaucoup d&rsquo;autres voudrait nous faire rester, sans r\u00e9sidence, nous sommes confront\u00e9s \u00e0 une baisse de salaire importante, et surtout la perte des avantages m\u00e9dicaux importants comme contrat de Kathy arrive \u00e0 expiration. . . . . . si la vie est \u00e0 la crois\u00e9e des chemins. . . . nous n&rsquo;avons pas envie de quitter le paradis. . . . . . mais nous avons besoin d&rsquo;un endroit o\u00f9 nous pouvons appeler \u00e0 la maison.<\/p>\n<p>Le mois dernier, nous sommes all\u00e9s sur un \u00ab road trip \u00bb visiter l&rsquo;Alberta, la Colombie-Britannique et du Nouveau-Brunswick au Canada \u00e0 la recherche d&rsquo;un nouvel endroit pour vivre.

Nous avons trouv\u00e9 les gens sympathiques, la communaut\u00e9 dynamique et en bonne sant\u00e9, et les prix des maisons abordables, donc, alors que nous sommes attrist\u00e9s de devoir quitter le paradis tropical qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 notre maison pendant les cinq derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es, nous attendons avec impatience la prochaine grande aventure dans nos vies.
