Mjallo guys, I\'m planning on going to New Zealand to work and travel come new year. Have any of you guys been there and if so, which towns/attractions/sights do you recommend?
-
Why not Australia?
New Zealand is an awesome place. I\'ve never been, but my girlfriend has and speaks of nothing but praises. :) I\'d very much love to go there one day. In most of the major cities you\'ll find great stuff to see/do, so don\'t be too concerned about focussing on certain ones. You can\'t go wrong with Wellington, though. :)

Because SoulGrind lives there! :p
Nah, it was a toss up between NZ and Australia, and I guess I\'ve always wanted to go to NZ even more than Australia, so that\'s why I chose it. :)
-
I\'ve never been to New Zealand, but from what I\'ve seen it\'s a beautiful place. I hope you have fun there, man.
-
Hah. Don\'t lie, Sammy. It\'s all about Lord of the Rings you whore.
Oh, and Christchurch, be sure to go there, of course.
When are you planning this? I\'ll probably end up going there some time next year, or perhaps the year after.
-
Like Australia, they drive on the wrong side of the road. Other than that, I heard it\'s a pretty nice place to visit and people are nice. Say hello to the Hobbits for me. ;)
-
IT\'S SO KEWL! WHEN YOU TURN A CORNER FROM THE TOP SIDE OF A T INTERSECTION, ON COMING TRAFFIC IS SUPPOSED TO GIVE WAY TO YOU INSTEAD OF THE OTHER WAY AROUND!! Or so my Kiwi friend tells me. They still fuck sheep though.
-
Sheep does outnumber humans by the millions! Hope you like lamb. They\'re basically a grass eating machine so, you\'re just one degree of seperation from eating grass. ;) Lamb is basically a vegetable. :D

Haha yeah, I have to admit LOTR was part of the reason I wanted to go there. :D
I\'m planning on going in January. Probably for 4-6 months.

Do they still live in tents and tattoo their faces in nz?
-
On the boat I worked on the skippers wife was from NZ.
She was from Auckland.
I\'d suggest getting some real organic food while your there.

And make fun of their accent.
One day an australian was walking through a farm district in New Zealand. Noticing a funny noise by the fence, he investigated. It was a kiwi fucking a sheep. The aussie shouted; "hay mate, back where I come from we sheer \'em".
The kiwi replies. "Fuck off. Get your own!"
-
There\'s a difference between australian and new zealand accents?
Well bugger me sideways and call me sheila, who\'d have thunk it? They all sound alike to me.
-
Yah, there\'s a big difference.
-
Kiwis speak sideways while Aussies hold a beer next to their faces before they can speak.
-
ass jumping eh?
