Hi all,

On the beginning of January I'll be in Christchurch.

Does anyone knows how much is the average paid of a pizza maker?
I hope, now, to find someone can solve this doubt: does anyone knows if the australian forklift license is valid in New Zealand or at least if I can pay a fee to convert it??? Thanks

Do you have a visa. No visa no work.
Check out the NZ government immigration website for info and online visa applications.

Of course if ask about it. I'm holding a working holiday visa.

The problem with Christchurch is lack of accommodation and what is there is expensive. All due to the earthquake.

Check out www.numbeo.com for cost of living. 

With a working holiday visa have you considered fruit or grape picking or farm work. That way you get accommodation.
