This is a widely broad question I realize but my husband and I have been toying with the idea of moving to NZ for a year or so as a sort of sabbatical. We are both Architects and have both also taught. What is the job market like there? What about living expenses? Currently we are daydreaming, but would like to make it a reality if it is feasible ... such a beautiful country!

Job market here is a bit sluggish at the moment but surveys are pointing to a slow improvement. Dont know about architect jobs but you might be able to pick up some work in Christchurch as it starts with the rebuild after the quake late this year/early next year. Here are a couple of sites that might help. The trademe site will give you an idea of cost of housing as well as jobs (similar to your Craigslist or e-bay).

Christchurch is going to have MASSIVE demand for architects once rebuilding gets underway.
