Hey Lauren,

North Island - Beautiful beaches in the the far north of the north island, ninety mile beach, umm -- theres millions of nice beaches everywhere actually...lol  Dolphin watching at the 'bay of islands'.   Rotorua is a thermal activity town with geysers, bubbling mud, indigenous culture - IE Marae's to visit with traditional dance shows.  At the south end of lake taupo is 2 tall mountains/volcanoes you can trek up. Auckland city (where I live) has lots of volcanoes around the place - its a nice coastal city.  North Island has a lot of green farm land and is where you can visit 'hobbiton' film set from the movies - its very cute.
South Island has very majestic scenery, long mountain ranges, lakes, glaciers, tussock,  Queenstown and Wanaka are good places to visit. Fiordland is amazing with long treks through ancient forests. Lots of trekking through mountainous tussock as well.  Some amazing places with rock formation around the plains - you'll have to do a google search to find out where that is. Most of what people see in the Lord of the rings movies is South Island scenery.

Take care,

Sonja.

I loved it there!  Later I had to do a lot of business in the UK, and was for weeks in a row in either London or Manchester.

I am originally from Germany, but I am 1/2 Dutch and 1/2 German.  This allows me to legally "go Dutch", or?  I am in the US for almost 45 years now, and it has become home for me.

The family of my wife was from Clitheroe in Lancashire.  Yes, I was married to a Brit, and her parents came from the UK.  And there we were, living in the US speaking English with a British/German/Dutch accent.  Can you be more cosmopolitan?

Hey Lauren - Moving to NZ? Excellent!! Thats where I am!

Sonja.

Cool.....I am an xpat Kiwi and if my own family wasn't here I would have gone back many years ago. I do miss it but then Australia has been very good for me.

Omg Sonja! I feel like I should give you money or something😆😆 It's like i hired a tour guide! 😁😊 I will for sure check out as much as I can 🙂 I think for summer I'm gonna backpack around the north then head south for winter and settle in Wanaka or Queenstown for the ski season 😊 buuuuut... a plan that can't stand up to a little alteration isn't a good plan so we shall see 😁
