How's life in New Zealand?


How's life in New Zealand?

When you're 17, you don't really have much to compare it with. But we are very lucky. I mean woman can walk the streets alone and the risk of anything happening to her is very slim. We have a pretty good social welfare system. Our country isn't filled with fighting and crime rates are pretty low. People are generally friendly and helpful as well.

The scenery is nice too, especially in the South. If you get the chance you should definitely visit Milford Sound. It's truly amazing.

Being a teenager here is kind of boring though. I lived in Sydney for a while and there was far more to do there.

The climate isn't great. We have cold, wet winters that drag on and on. The summers are average at best.

It's a nice place to visit.

Very , " scenic " I would guess

i don't know but it's amazing in san francisco!

Nice although just getting used to daylight savings and the clock being forwarded an hour. Its now lighter in the evenings though. The weather is also getting better and its SPRING finally! Hope life is great on the other side of the world ;-)

It's all a case of inhaling, then exhaling, and don't forget to inhale again.
Thanks for the points.

better in Auckland

Beautiful South Island the landscape is amazing Plenty of daredevil sports. Cold winters but good for sking. lots of fruit picking

its awesum...if u want to live in an industrialized part..choose the north..more scenic and peaceful in the south....aukland is the best..go allblacks!!!!!!

It's great! I hate people to hate nz.

We are not going to get blown up while walking down the streets, people go out of their way to help you and our government is world class.

SOunds an alright country to me

Comfy. There's nowhere else I'd rather be - and I could tell, because I've been everywhere else. Well, almost.

lifes great.. especially in wellington!
