Hi,
I'm considering coming to New Zealand towards the end of the year (December), although i was curious as to whether there's actually many British and Irish in Auckland in the same situation. I have worked and traveled Australia and was hoping for similar kind of atmosphere amongst backpackers working in Auckland.
For some reason i have the assumption that most backpackers work and travel Australia and then just travel New Zealand without working....
Can somebody please fill me in on the working backpacker scene in Auckland. I want the same kinda lifestyle as oz - as in going out meeting brits and irish in bars etc. I do like other nationalities too incase anybody thinks im nationist (if thats a word) ha
Cheers

I don't think that this scene exists in Auckland, back packers tend to head south where all the excitement is. Queenstown is the hub for them.
