What I was stating in my last post was that once you visit and arrive in NZ you will be greeted with Kiwi and Maori culture instantanously. It is everywhere, much more prevalent than other countries. I found it similar to west coast natives and how they are celebrated in BC.

And yes I am from Canada
Aye. So the NZ version of being white hatted?

I met a dude in europe that was (is) from Christ Church. We became fast friends (if only for a few days) over how similar we were. Tales of camping and fishing and 4x4ing and so on, were the topic of conversation for many a pint.
I guess I just take exception to anyone that isn't from Paris telling me that my home turf lacks culture. Having never been down under, I can really only speculate. But I have decided that it's much like Canada, only with bigger spiders.
