Leaving behind big city life to start making classic New Zealand pies halfway around the world might seem like a bold choice, but for Rajeev Bajwa and his family, it’s one they’ve never regretted.
After 17 years in New Zealand, and several of those in Rotorua, Bajwa, 47, became a New Zealand citizen this week.
His wife, Seema, 42, is also planning to become a citizen this year.
The pair, originally from India, moved to New Zealand in 2001, while Seema was seven months pregnant with their first child.
