Tremayne Cornish - Port Elizabeth, South Africa
When South African Tremayne Cornish sets his face against the sting of the winter surf, he's got purpose.
"Purpose was what our migration to New Zealand was all about. We wanted to give our children a future. And that's what we've got - there's a real sense of community here.
"With relatives in Australia or Canada we could have emigrated to either country. But with the strong rugby links between our countries - as a schoolboy I met Colin Meads and never forgot it - New Zealand always had special appeal. We made the right choice. Settling in was remarkably easy and we're proud to be Kiwis now. Life's good here and our children have a great future to share."
