Greetings Marmite Warrior,
I lived in Melbourne (Clifton Hills), for years and when I was a young man the citizens of Oz felt it was their sacred duty to feed a Yank vegamite. Not thinly spread as the nation of criminals enjoy the spread, they fed me toast with the hellish yeast extract spread like they were finishing the last of a peanut butter jar. I spit it out after 3 bites. I adore the Australian people ( but they have a government that should be overthrown by force and no mercy should be given to the MP's who served during the pandemic.) Sorry, I believe freedom is important.
New Zealand is probably the best place on earth. The citizens are very nice, and the most attractive citizens per capita I have ever seen, and I travel A.LOT. The 2 major drawbacks to living in Godzone as they call it are Marmite, which I'm sure was originally used to patch holes in wooden ships, and Prime Minister Jacinda Arden. Do a deep dive on her, your jaw will drop.
Again, Kiwis are the salt of the earth, they just have a terrible national food, and the worst PM in history, However I'd gladly sit next to a Kiwi on the 17 hr flight to LA. I have also had the pleasure of snowboarding in NZ and it was sublime. I lived in Breckinridge, CO., so I know what a.good skier is and the Kiwis are absolutely world class.
Also, please do not visit. There too many visitors already. If you are thinking of overseas travel, I'll bet most people have never visited Mali. No tourists and super dooper cheap!!
If you MUST visit NZ, take some time and definitely visit both islands as they are not the same.
Sorry for the lengthy post, I have spent years in OZ & NZ and I love and miss them terribly. Hell, 80% of my lifelong friends live in Victoria, New South Wales, or in Queenstown, N.Z. I only make fun of them because I love them.
