I lived here for several months. Really not bad.
Wai-O-Topu, Rotorua, Wellington, Christ Church ... All very nice places!
Actually New Zealand South even has more attractive scenes. You know 'The Lord of the rings', right? Then just come here to see the spectacular sites.

Why pay lots of money seeing glow worms at Waitomo Caves, when you can see them all for free at Waipu Caves in Northland, New Zealand.
The Waipu Caves are located 13 km inland from Waipu, a little village 2 hours north from Auckland (on the way to the Bay of Islands).
You have to travel over a gra...

I’d have to agree hire car is the best option!! But driving can take up a lot of time and energy so if you have very limited time I’d flight but if you can drive - you'll get to see a lot more and have a lot more fun!!!

Heya,
I travelled New Zealand on 2001-2002 and easily found work at Atlantis Backpackers, a hostel in Picton (South island). Many hostels and farms are looking for workers, you can just walk in and ask - Kiwis are very friendly and will most likely do their best to help you.
You can also enter...

Hi, if you're after a 'village' feel, I would suggest for you to look for a place in the Inner West, somewhere like Newtown, Annandale or Leichardt, these places have the 'arty' vibe.
For a place that has a 'beach' feel (full of tourists and expats as well), a place like Bondi or Coogee would be...

I don't think scarves and gloves are necessary at all in winter. Honestly I haven't owned a pair of gloves or scarf ever. Whilst it does get to below 10 degrees sometimes. Generally speaking winter in Sydney never goes below 10 degrees. I think its normally about 12 degrees.

When travelling around Australia, don't fly in and out of the same Airport. If you have loads of time there then you can do this because you have time to go back, otherwise you spend half your time getting somewhere and the rest of the time trying to get back. If you are travelling on a budget then ...

You can probably find some cheap flights to major cities. I planned a weekend to Sydney (flying from Melbourne) for less than $500, which also includes lodging at a youth hostel.

When we said we were going to Perth, travellers would say "really?" "why?"
We did not know what to expect.
After living here for three months. Here is what I have to say about Perth.
