    Lived in Iceland back in the early 80's. The natives were a bit standoffish back then. Haven't made it to the Southern Hemisphere yet, but I've always been interested in Australia and NZ.

    One advantage for you Kiwis in terms of keeping your country nice: a person has to really WANT to go there. Whoever said "you can't get there from here" had New Zealand in mind!

    The pictures that I've seen of New Zealand are awesome. Of course I'm also aware that the tourism industry puts forth only the best of the best. I'd still love to visit there, but unfortunately that will never happen. I'll just have to be content seeing all of the great pictures of that beautiful land so far away.

    We love the photos and films of New Zealand, the views are spectacular and of course, we know you are so nice! A friend of mine made the New Zealand newspaper many years ago when she and her boyfriend (now husband) were hiking in the mountains, and he slipped and was badly injured and needed rescue.

    It's on our list for the Wandering Spirits World Tour in 2017-18! Stuart spent 9 months in Australia in the mid-90's and a bit of time in New Zealand then too. He wants to spend more time in NZ. I've never been to either. We're planning 3-4 months in that area of the world. Our closest neighbour is originally from Tazmania...I'd love to get there too!
