Absolutely, positively smitten

Wellington, we flirted awhile back, but it wasn't our time.

Now, I can feel what was supposed to be a short-term relationship threatening to lay down roots for good. Maybe I'll change my mind when the weather turns, but for now, your vibrancy and magic seem contagious, and the impossible starts to unfold.

You are beautiful and glorious in ways that other places can't compete with. I shed my JAFA clothes; I'm absolutely, positively smitten.

Wellington's difference

[I love Wellington because of its difference. Because we always get bad weather when no one else does. But I love Wellington most of all because it's my home.]

This city is a memory

Dear Wellington,

Born here in St. Helens, daughter of two former Victoria University students who met here in their first year of study at the Central Baptist Youth Hostel on Boulcott. I know I am home here, every time I come down the gorge and the harbour rises up into view. Now I work in the Majestic Centre, overlooking the carpark which replaced the old youth hostel. I look down and see the moment my parents met for the first time. This city is a memory.

Wandering Scouser

I never expected to be seduced by Windy Welly, but I absolutely love this city. It is a truly beautiful place to be. For now I will call Wellington my home before I continue my adventure around this amazing land.

Thank you for adopting this wandering Scouser! This is a place I will remember all my life.

Swept off your feet

Amazing place, another story to tell and memories to keep.Must be nice to fall in love and be blown away, or swept away rather [off] your feet at this kind of city.

Just visiting... Been here 2x.

New lease on life

Dear Wellington,

I came needing a new lease on life and you have certainly provided that. Looking to take some of that spirit and bring it back to my home. Hope for many more visits and inspiration from your city. From your people to the business, to your character you have a beautiful soul. Will miss you.

A city to fall in love with!

Wellington -

You're a city with flair.
Glad I had to have the opportunity to be a part of it!
You're a city to fall in love with!

Lots of love from Germany

Let me firstly say...

Let me firstly say I love you Wellington.

I love the smell of your freshly mowed lawn and the rain pelting against my roof at night. I love the cold autumn mornings playing soccer on your muddy lawns. And I love the way the wind blows my hair it's like a breath of fresh air!

Every corner possible

Wellington,

I just got here working on a cruise ship. I'm here for the day, looking forward to [exploring] every corner possible riding my bicycle... I saw fur seals last time here and didn't have time to see the rest. But today you're gonna touch my soul.
