I just came off 2 years working and travelling around NZ (and Oz, but mainly NZ) and I just loved it so much! Seeing people go, makes my day:-)Cheap out for lodging and food (nothing there is anything to write home about, for the most part...eat a pie, if you must!!! they are cheap and filling) but don't cheap out on activities. There is loads to do there that you can't do anywhere else. Just wanted to say how happy I am to see so many people eager to get to NZ!

I'm full of envy -- NZ has been on my must visit list for a long time, but it's So Effing Far Away. Better planning and focus is required on my part.I find jetlag either nails you or it doesn't, and when it does, it takes a week/10 days to go away. It helps if you're somewhere sunny and can get outside.Also, wow, 100+ a week for alcohol! Yowza. Now *I'm* old. Two beers a day, I'd have NO trouble sleeping.
