NZ - truly one of the best places in the world! OK climate, good quality of life, relatively cheap access to high quality schooling and all that goes with it and of course the great outdoors.
However the travel to work will give you s
ts eventually and if you have to rely on work in NZ to supplement your income ... forget it ... go somewhere else.
I'm sure I speak for a number of touring Kiwis who no longer live there, that we'd love to be home but the conditions of work are positively 'third world'
Good luck
