This one is pretty simple. You're a Neighbourly member so connecting with your community is obviously pretty important to you. So this tip is more of a challenge; this year (or this weekend!) make it your mission to meet someone new living near you.

Here's a few things you can do to get you started:
- use the Neighbours Directory to find neighbours on your street.
- introduce yourself on Neighbourly to those living in your neighbourhood. Just a few words about yourself and what brought you here.
- Give something away or sell something! A Neighbourly exchange gives you a chance to meet someone new.
- just head out the door and knock on someone else's!
______
Remember 86% of Kiwis want to get to know their neighbours better, but just don't see them around much (71%). Take the first step!

Recently I served my 500th client as a Justice of the Peace.

It is indeed a privilege to be able to help my clients realise their dreams - as diverse as getting admission to school / uni. getting 18+ card, applying for residence visa, sponsoring family to visit NZ, adopting a child,.....the list is endless.

Interestingly, I am seeing clients more regularly now. The first 100 took 399 days, then 281, 243, 209, and the most recent hundred took 193 days.

Thanks to each of my clients who made me part of their dreams.
There is always something to learn from every appointment.
