New Zealand

Finish eating and chatting. Tania got up and pushed her suitcase to check in.

“You are very little.” Pras.

“Strust sent. I had to skip breakfast to prepare the items to be sent.”

“You have an address there?”

“I use po box.  While I stayed at the hotel until I found a place to stay.”

“Create what the heck secret-secrecy address.”

“Create what is also ngorek address people? I don't have a fixed address yet so using a po box is more practical. I told you why I kept my address a secret.”

“Ya. It's up to you.”

“Thank you for accompanying me to eat. I have to go inside to check in.”

“Ok. Take care's. I am gonna miss you.”

“I am not!” Sahut Tania lightly.

“Do not hesitate to talk it can be.”

“I don't want to find a problem talking well with you.”

Kontan Pras chuckled.

The clouds are white in the blue sky. Tania was relieved to leave Indonesia.

Good bye Indonesia's. I will be gonna miss you. There are many memories. I won’t go back. I will choose my own way for my own shake.

Arriving at the hotel. Tania checked her gadget. Whatsapp from Marsha.

[Have you arrived? How about New Zealand?]

[Just arrived. Very delightful. Very fine and cool.]

[I'm glad you like your new place.]

[Yeah, sure. Ofcourses.]

[I have to attend a charity event of the foundation. We'll connect again.]

[Yeah.]

Travelling for nearly twelve hours. Makes him want to rest and spend his time looking around his hotel stay.

Meant seeing the campus and its workplace the next day. All of his work starts next week. So that he has enough time to go around looking at rental houses or apartments.

Trying to find a residence that is not too far from the workplace and campus. Even if possible, just walk or use a bicycle.

The gadget is back. Whatsapp by Pras.

[Are you there?”

[Yes]

[You've been looking for a place to live?]

[Not yet.]

[Let's know if there's an address. Send your favorite chocolate.]

[It doesn't have to.]

[Chocolate flavors are different there with here. Do you also want to send Indonesian food?]

[Not need]

[I sent to the po box how?]

[Ok]

Tania gave her po box number. Indonesian food and its favorite chocolate are two things that are difficult to resist. He probably won't find both here. If there were, it would feel different.

Whatsapp by Diah.

[Today I'm replacing you working again with Ratih. Check email yes. I have something to confirm with you. There is something I want to ask also if I do not understand accounting and finance. Mr. Pras plans to give me an accounting.]

Tania checked her email. Start typing the answer. Open the required file. Reply to Diah's questions around accounting work. Teach him to read financial statements and make summaries.

When finalized. Reply whatssapp Diah.

[I've returned your email. Plis check yes...I think it's a good idea that Pras would give you an accounting. You will understand your work more easily.]

[He offered Ratih but Ratih refused because he preferred administrative work. All this time who helped him take care of the company's financial problems was me. It's just that I'm just having an office course. Diploma two.]

[Yeah, you better continue your education.]

[Yeah, thanks]

He decided to leave the hotel for a walk. New Zealand is beautiful. He plans to spend his vacation in the countryside if he finds a place to stay.

Oh, my God, I haven't started anything. Thinking about the holidays. Tania laughed a little.

It seems that arriving in New Zealand makes him want to explore the beauty of the country. Do not continue your education and work here only as a mode to enjoy the beauty of this country.

A country that is not only prosperous but also comfortable, safe, peaceful and peaceful.

The second safest country in the world by Global Peace in 2022. The population is only five million people.

Although New Zealand is not a Muslim country but they have halal certificates for minority Muslim communities there. NZIDT, New Zealand Islamic Development Trust. The most trusted and recognized certification of MUI. Often the obstacle for Muslim minority communities when in non-Muslim countries is the problem of food halalness.

Maybe for those non-Muslims just halal is enough even if mixed haram or cooked in the same equipment there is no problem. While it is very different from Muslim society even though they are a minority, especially consistent with the teachings of their religion. Because there are also inconsistent and do not mind consuming the haram. Sometimes if not addressed wisely this can be a polemic because it is considered to represent Islam and the Muslims as a whole. Halal certification is the middle ground of all these complexities. Mediate between those who are consistent with those who are inconsistent or non-Muslim.

 Tania also intends to visit Hobbiton Village. Bag End is the home of Bilbo Baggins, a character in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbits.

If there were an Indian tribe in America. Australia, Aboriginal while in New Zealand there are Maori. Their Polynesian ancestors migrated to New Zealand a thousand years ago.

Tania intends to visit The Heritage Reigion of Waikato, Hamilton. The Waikato region has an important meaning for Maori people in New Zealand. The museum displays all articles related to the heritage, culture and history of the region. The museum also has a 900-year-old canoe.

New Zealand with its beauty and harmony is a new hope for Tania to live her new life.

The gadget is back.

[What's up New Zealand?]

[Very beautiful and gorgeous]

[I hope I can fly over there.]

[OK if you want to come here. Iwait!]

[Flight ticket ..]

[I pay for it but don't have to say anything else.]

[Truly?]

[Yes. When to come here]

[Quickly!]

Tania sent a laughing picture and wrote [Ok!]

[Udahan first, later connected again, a lot of work.]

[Ok!]

Tania's smile expands. Imagining Ratih visiting her made her heart happy. He did not mean to be kind to his friends. But he did not want Pras to smell his whereabouts. Reed can hold his secret. Because it was proven over a span of time before she and Marsha knew who Marsha's lover was. Ratih already knew about the two of them and could keep the meeting all together. Until they find out the truth they need to know.

His friendship with Marsha was everything forever too.

They can spend their vacation to the beach or snorkeling if diving is too difficult. Although it seems more fun to dive than snorkeling. Than not at all.

Diving is not as easy as it looks. Not everyone can do it.

New Zealand itself is a country with four seasons. In winter the weather can reach one to fifteen degrees centigrade. There are also many glaciers.

It looks like he will love New Zealand a lot and will likely stay there forever.
