[quote:Anonymous Coward 26234249:MV8yMTExMzM3XzM1NjEyMzA4XzU5MjA0OTY1] [quote:Anonymous Coward 32247363:MV8yMTExMzM3XzM1NTk2ODk2XzVBODk5RUYy] New Zealand is a very clean, green and beautiful country. It has always been a world leader in anything to do with environment issues and is Nuclear Free. The people are open and relatively low key. Many people have said that kiwis are very similar to Canadian's. There is a growing creative and cultural energy in NZ and when I go back I always find it refreshing. Of course "The Lord of the Rings" Trilogy has meant that a lot of resources are now available for film makers there. I think I even heard that James Cameron is going to move there to live. Kiwi's are pretty tolerant people and admire hard work so if you are happy to work hard you will soon be accepted. There is sometimes a general view that Americans can be a bit loud and insular (eg, think kiwis are all running around in grass skirts, etc) but mainly Kiwis take people as they come. If you love mountains, forests, bush walking, etc, you will be in absolute heaven! Where I was brought up is very rural and as a young person I felt like I wanted to see the world and it was all too boring. Someone mentioned that the cost of living is a bit higher which is true. Compared to Australia the wages are a bit lower too. As suggested, take a little trip and see how you like it. Make sure you include the South Island in the trip as this is the most beautiful and scenic if you love Mountains.

If you are determined and willing to take the risk you can survive anywhere. New Zealand is beautiful but because it is a smaller country there are not the opportunities that bigger countries provide. Save hard and go for a visit to them all and see which one feels good. I firmly believe that if you have a good work ethic and are prepared to make some sacrifice along the way you can end up living anywhere. [/quote] Tell me about New Zealand, I am a huge outdoor kinda guy and that place looks like the most beautiful country on the planet from what i can tell. How are jobs? how hard is it getting a job as an ex american? are we liked or at least tolerated by the Kiwi's ? [/quote] [/quote] Canadians are not open, I was willing to work hard but was not accepted, Canadians are often a bunch of jerks. They are not genuinely tolerant. The "multiculturalism" is a farce, I am not the only one who thinkgs so. :-( [/quote]
