WHAT I LOVE ABOUT NEW ZEALAND || as an American in New Zealand

[@xjet]

Thanks for the kind words about New Zealand and you can be sure that we appreciate you making it all the more beautiful by your presence here.

[@Becca.Loveless]

That is too nice!! Still just so happy to be here 😊

[@Daniiiiikay]

I've lived in New Zealand my whole life and didn't notice some of these things needed celebrating. Was just normal here. I guess we take things for granted when we don't realise some things we have a better than others. It's nice to see the things we don't notice.

[@Becca.Loveless]

There are so many amazing things about New Zealand! I honestly feel like Aotearoa is one of the rare places in the world where the good outweighs the bad 🧡

[@Daniiiiikay]

@@Becca.Loveless for sure. I didn't realise that was the case in other counties

[@MustiBear]

Awww Becca you’re so kind about NZ. It is a pretty amazing country. Hope you get to stay forever if you want too 🙂

[@Becca.Loveless]

I hope so too! Because I agree - it is pretty amazing here!

[@christophermarshall527]

Apart from having beautiful landscapes, what makes NZ really really awesome is all the friendly talented people.... just like yourselves!!

[@Becca.Loveless]

I should have said that! Because that is one of my very favorite things about New Zealand!

[@QuickeMart]

There are far too many of us Kiwis who don't really appreciate just how good we've got it here. We truly do live in paradise, we are so well looked after and cared for from before we are even born. I'm so glad you're here with us, you are so welcome! Kia Ora from a rainy and blustery New Plymouth. 👋

[@Becca.Loveless]

Hi from an equally rainy Auckland! Can’t wait for winter to be over 😭 but I totally agree with you! NZ is a pretty special place 😊

[@donbrashsux]

There’s lots to love about NZ and it’s kind of isolation is what helps to keep it special etc .. I really love its Māori culture side as it makes it very unique and special I’m not Māori but really love the use of the beautiful Māori language used for place names and hope one day she can be re named Aotearoa as it’s way more fitting Imo

[@Becca.Loveless]

I agree! I know I’ve mentioned it several times, but it makes me so happy to see Māori representation. It is so beautiful 🧡🧡

[@brucehowe194]

And i hope the whole of National Anthem will one day be sung in Maori rather than English i hate the English version it sounds much nicer in Maori.

My daughter lives in NZ for about 20 years now and yes is lovely there we visit almost every year for the holidays , she had our grandson there , had a C sec ,didn’t cost a dime , went to Uní in Auckland and paid off her student loan , unlike here in the states that it takes almost your whole life to pay due to all the interest they add .

She has a large following on KZbin and in one of her videos she speaks about the different approaches between US and New Zealand concerning pre and post natal care. Cheers.

You said it all, even though New Zealand is expensive and isolated...it's worth it!!

[@Becca.Loveless]

I’ve also realized that while the US might seem “cheaper” in some regards, in the end with health care and expensive insurances and so many other things, it actually pretty much equals out. To me the higher quality of life here makes it sooooo worth it! I love it here 🧡

All I can say is that this American is very grateful to be here!

[@libbysevicke-jones3160]

Sorry - not true, I’m in my sixties and l have known Americans living in NZ my entire life. Yes my mum worked at a University and most Americans we meet as kids worked there too. However just because your experience is different doesn’t make it true. An important part of our Maori war history which is ‘Always’ over looked are the American soldiers who came here to fight in NZ. The sad part is that they were recruited to come to NZ straight after the Civil war in America. I guess they were professional soldiers, but imagine sailing to a totally foreign country to fight a war you have absolutely no connection with.
