    Great shots of Auckland.
    PROS:
    - It is MUCH safer than most other countries
    - People are quite relaxed and laid-back.
    - There are SOOOOO many things you can do as a tourist. I mean, a mind-blowing amount where everything little town has its own reason for visiting.
    - The tourist network is very well organized.
    - Great education system compared to many other countries.
    - Pineapple lumps
    CONS:
    - NZ is quite expensive in general with Auckland being more expensive than the rest of the country.
    - The local transport system is terrible compared to most other countries. You are expected to have a car to get anywhere within a town.
    - Have I already mentioned it's expensive?

Apparently back in the day nz was covered in these very ancient looking beautiful forests but most of them were burnt. A bit heart broken hearing it and so happy at least some survived.

    My friend lives in NZ. He is happy, not so happy. Kept in touch with him, this is his reply.. NZ is good, nice & lot of other good things that were mentioned here so let's add what my friend said. Buying a house is not affordable as not everyone earns a lot. Lots of people are renting/boarding as affordability to own one is way out of reach. Crime is ridiculously high & the system is softer on the crime which does not set any deterrent for others. You just get some home detention, you can be a repeat offender for drink- drive still be on the roads driving again, there is much more to it. Public transport system is a massive failure in the whole of country , full of blunders & that’s why people rely on cars, motorcycles, etc. You can’t do anything without a car so most of the households have two or three cars. It is not cheap to live here as you don’t get to make enough hence why it is expensive. Not everything is available here either.

    Hey thank you for this awesome video! I was born and raised in Italy, but after many years I decided to see the world and seek a better place to live. I'm currently on "your" side of the world, studying Japanese in Tokyo, because I've always loved Japanese people, their culture, their hospitality, and their food. The language is very warm and emotional, more so than I thought, although reading and writing it is crazy hard. But for various reasons, I don't think I'll settle down here. New Zealand is currently my #1 place to visit and maybe end up staying in! So I'll be watching your entire channel if you don't mind XD

    Awesome review, bro! I lived in NZ for almost 3 years, and I loved it. I definitely would love to visit again. I have a lot of families over there. The thing I miss the most (other than my families😂) is the food. NZ, in my opinion has the best dairy and meat products. I miss the bakeries, too (meat pies, sausage rolls, etc.).

    I lived in NZ for 15months and it was amazing. The people, nature and just the overall feeling of the country. People are so friendly and their cafes are so good! People are down to earth and care more about living a connected (to people nature) life than living a, by western standards, succesful life in general. I notice that I only got asked once; what do your parents do? And here people ask all the time (Holland) people just dont care and are friendly.

      There is no such thing as "free" healthcare and education. Ultimately, SOMEONE must pay for those services -- it's not as if the money is simply falling from the heavens. Therefore, next time someone claims something, like healthcare, is free, what he really means is, "I want you to pay for me." (What a novel -- and personally convenient -- way to vote, no?)

    This country is a gorgeous little sanctuary, our own little slice of relative heaven on earth and us Kiwis are sure to *never take a day of our citizenship for granted.* Also, we are very much culturally and geographically aware how difficult many others aboard have it in their respective countries which is why we are generally warm, kind and welcoming towards foreigners.
    So long as you're a decent human human being and it's *roughly one to two million per year* and it's not everyone doing it, we'd encourage you on the Mighty Waka! Climb aboard our safe haven.

    damn it I love this country. The rivers are fun to kayak down and the fjordlands may be some of the coolest places on earth, and the peninsulas and islands are so fun. School camps taught me to appreciate this country's extravagance in the nature aspect, but the cultural aspect is a plus too. I've been to most of the major cities in the North Island and I enjoyed every one, from Taupo to Tauranga. Not particularly fond of Auckland, but that may just be because living 30 minutes from the city centre is considered close. where I grew up, Palmy North, you could traverse the whole city in 30 minutes. The memories that stick with me though always come back to natural features. Climbing Mount Ruapehu, witnessing soo many waterfalls, seeing seals on the beach at Cape Palliser, kayaking backwards down the Rangitikei River, going on a few bushwalks, and jetboating down the Waikato River to have a geothermal safari. This country is not without flaws, but there really is no place like New Zealand

    I used to live in Auckland now in Sydney. Definitely miss the fresh air as soon as you leave AkL airport also miss the food in NZ. Burger chains like Wendy's, Burger King etc. I also think the Chinese (Cantonese) restaurant s are better in Akl

      @Ronnie Kirk It's gorgeous Ronnie. Our own little slice of heaven on earth and us Kiwis are sure to *never* take a day of our citizenship for granted. We also thoroughly understand how difficult many others abroad have it (as we are very aware of geography and foreign culture), which is why we are generally warm, kind and welcoming to foreigners :)

    As a Canadian who married a New Zealander, I got pregnant even though I'm not a permenant resident. They have given me free maternal care for me and the baby. I had no idea and thought I'd have to pay for everything. This actually has helped me choose to go back to Canada to live or stay here.

    • @PeterandYen

      Definitely one of the most beautiful countries ever but it is rough getting around. That's why most people in New Zealand own their own car. Public transport is definitely getting a lot better though 😁👍
