    So many of my friends actually didn’t know if folks speak English here! I’ve been on this island two years now (from America) and was recently introduced to this pod from another woman from America, who I’ve just met last week. Such a great listen.

  • Love this useful podcast!

    Loads of awesome info if you’re thinking of moving (or even travelling) to New Zealand. There’s a mix of hugely useful podcasts on important stuff and amusing, interesting facts that you probably didn’t know. All brought to you in Liz and Bri’s unique style of laughter and disagreements! 😍 Love it! I’m part of the NZAhead community too. 👍🏻
