You should take the time to see what NZ has to offer, clean, green, basically friendly country, well worth a look.

joshtaal: Hi all, I was just sitting here surfing through CS & I thought to myself, 'Theres not many New Zealanders on here' & then I thought, "I wonder how many people even know anything about New Zealand"
So for all you non-kiwis here's my question. What do you know about New Zealand & have you ever been here?


No, sorry..... I don't know much about New Zealand, my friend. I have always wanted to go and I have heard lots of lovely things about it. I confess the very long flight puts me off.........

NZ is a cool place to live, our government promotes us as clean and green or 100 percent pure, unfortunately we still have issues around rivers not safe to swim in due to pollution etc. Though our beaches are pretty safe.

We still have issues around safety in some places especially larger towns or cities, not safe to walk alone at night etc, problems with gangs, drugs and violence.

NZ is a great place to visit but you still need to have a common sense approach to visiting and safety.

Lots of awesome scenery, especially the south island

Whale watching in Kaikoura is awesome
Bungee jumping in skippers canyon
Walk the saddle at Mt Tarawera
Mount Maunganui where i am from is a lovely place, awesome beach and a mountain you can easily walk up in an hour or around in half an hour ...google it.
Rotorua for its Maori attractions

Most part new zealanders are pretty friendly and accommodating and love to party and show visitors a great time and are most hospitable. So do come and visit our country we are very proud to say we come from a pretty amazing place..!!
