Default New Zealand?

I have always wanted to visit there and I hear nothing but great things about it. Ranks second in the world as far as Peaceful Nations. I would like to hear from those who either live there, have lived there, or are going to live there only, not those who have visited it, to render their opinion on a relocation there from the US.

G'day there! Im from New Zealand and have been for the last 17 years. I have been to many countries in the world including, Aus, US, Canada UK etc and to me, New Zealand is the most beautiful country in the world, the weather is always fantastic because of Australia's Outback heat which kills bad weather off. As they say in the advertisments you may have seen, beautiful one day, perfect the next! Its the greatest sporting nation on earth by capita. And it matters to you, theres NO harmful snakes or spiders and the population is friendly, [url=http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=new+zealand]Urban Dictionary: new zealand[/url]
take a look at this, if you want more on an American that loved New Zealand then take a look at this.

Ive lived in New Zealand for all my life so far, it's a great country, you can be at the beach and then in three hours be in the mountains, I wouldn't say the weather is always fantastic but I will say that we rarely get tornados, hurricanes. Does depend what part of the country you are in though. For me New Zealand isn't really a place I could live in for the rest of my life in which I am planning to move to the USA, New Zealand though is a great country overall.

Need anymore info just ask.

I spent six months in New Zealand after college. I had a great time and highly recommend it. The country is beautiful and the people were very friendly and fun.

Kia Ora. I have lived here in New Zealand all of my life. I really do love it here and for anyone coming here for a holiday i really do reccomend this place for a holiday or even just for a new life on the other side of the world. I have never been outside of New Zealand and from what i see on the television that happens around the world i wouldnt like to go to any other country. New Zealand is the place to be. Go on and jump on to a plane and fly over here.

You should goto America, I did last year and it was the first time I had gone beyond Auckland in all my 18 years and it was awesome. One place you have to go.

Default Fed us with the USA! Want to pledge allegience to The Queen!

I am also interested in life in New Zealand - My husband and I are so disgusted with what this country (USA) has become we are quite ready to leave. It is not a fitting place to raise children anymore. It's quite sad - but not the focus of this post!

I have done research on the "new citizen" points system, and what it takes to move there but would like to hear more from you Kiwis regarding the health-care system, the government operations and cities!

And most importantly - what do you all think about Americans who have moved there?

Thank you!
