I live in Florida. I think in someway that totally could count. They seem to be very similar in taste and culture. I'm not sure though since you asked if you live in New Zealand.

Not me...but my sister lives there. She was working with an engineering firm, handling airport tarmacs...but I think she just got accepted to an architecture school, so that job will have to come to an end for a few years.

I always toy with the idea of moving there and starting a new life because it seems like a romantic idea. My reasons are

-the climate

-Auckland seems cool as does Christ Church

-Great place for Movies since the government helps support the arts and cinema. Lord of The Rings director Peter Jackson described it as "Holywood the way god intended" Since I want to work with film it seems like a great idea

-The weather seems to be good.

-Natural landscape is breathtaking.

-I'd be close to australia

-Kiwis

-Its an island.

-I can get married there to a New Zealand chick and have our honeymoon in Antartica

Sunk beneath the earths crust by an ancient evil. Was a prosperous land until the time of great suffering. A plague washed upon the land turning the townspeople into bloodthirsty monsters. The survivors of the great trial drifted at sea for many a year until coming across the island and setting up home once more. Today these people act as the guardians of Old Zealand protecting the great four seals in order to prevent the evil from ever escaping and wreaking havoc and death upon the land once more.
