Our family explored New Zealand recently and found it absolutely beautiful? We are considering it to move to New Zealand. It is a very big step and far from your family and friends. How do Kiwis react towards people from other countries in general?

Originally from the UK i have now left New Zealand permanently and have no wish to ever set foot again there - ALL my worst experiences have been in New Zealand - good luck

Originally from Malaysia...Currently residing in Auckland...Have to admit, NZ has been good to me..have made some life long friends. Housing and food are expensive ( but i am biased, since i come from an asian country.)
I have found KIWIS to be friendly and non judgemental. Of course, there will be the few bad apples, but I have no regrets moving to NZ!!
