About David (72 years) and Christine Morris (69 years) - still work full time - David is an engineer, and project manages dairy parlour projects internationally, mostly in China, but also travels to other countries troubleshooting. I am a project manager for an interior design company working on mostly commercial installations. We live on the beach at Mount Maunganui, a beautiful seaside town in the North Island of New Zealand. We enjoy the outdoors, our family, and cycling. Hoping next year to reduce our workload so we can spend more time doing the things we enjoy. We have a lovely home, and would love to exchange it so others can enjoy, and we broaden our horizons.
