Maybe it’s a hangover from our time living in Canada – but I really do like the Halloween hype and sort of miss it here in New Zealand. Halloween is not an event/holiday that is really celebrated in New Zealand and even though trick-or-treat’ing happens a bit, it isn’t anything like what we experienced in …
