Pukekohe, believe it or not, is a town I had always envisioned settling down in - and now that I'm straight out of my Wintec journalism degree, I get to work here.
After finally getting my study life over with, I am stoked to be starting my working career at the Franklin County News.
I was born Emelyn McHardy, but feel free to call me Em if I ever give you a call.
I grew up in Papua New Guinea, and after travelling back and forth to New Zealand a few times, I lived there a total of seven years.
But I will always think of little Paeroa as my home town.
I'd probably best describe myself as a "20-year-old nana" - while my friends may enjoy hitting the town, and staying up until 3am, I much prefer an early night at home, watching some Youtube or American Horror Story.
People ask me why I chose journalism. For me journalism means I'll never stop learning, I'll never have the same day twice and I'll always be experiencing something new.
I look forward to my new experiences with Franklin County News and can't wait to meet the community.
Give me a call on 237 0404, 027 886 3942, or email me emelyn.mchardy@fairfaxmedia.co.nz.
