Devastating Live Update from Growing Up Without Borders

My friend from Edmonton, was talking about the cold winter at the time I told her the burn time in NZ according to our weather report was 11 minutes, she said it was 9 months for her.

Congratulations guys --- you got me there --- I couldn't believe it. So happy for you all.

My cousin actually believed that the world is flat. And no amount is arguing or proof will change her mind. But she is a nice person and fun to hang out with.

Well that has to be the best April Fool's I've had, since we love you guys and you've embraced New Zealand so well, and you've been such good ambassadors for the country. I hope you continue to enjoy whatever you do, you've got me hooked. Our family came to NZ from UK for 5 years way back in 1953 and I'm still here. It happens. Happy journeys to the whole family.

I am so sorry you had to go through that, I don't know how long that has been a test for a visa in NZ. Don't feel too bad about failing, I don't know if I could pass anything like that to be honest. I really can't understand why it has to be. I love that the country is helping to keep the Maori language alive. Wow! you got me!!! I swallowed that hook line and Sinker. !!!! LOL :) :) :) Kiwi from Virginia. Congratulations of passing and gaining your visa : Enjoy your new journey, all very exciting. AND I can hear a bell bird in the background . Miss that here.

Born and bred Kiwi, West Coaster. I feel so stupid and admit I was getting so wound up.

You had me worried 😂 well done family so happy to call you kiwis now 🇳🇿🇳🇿🍾🎉🎊🎉🥰👍

Congratulations! Family of our's immigrated to NZ from South Africa and without any funnies or conceited "must have/do" nonsense it was still a very hard process that took very long and cost a lot of money. They've been there and have gotten on brilliantly compared to many expats that have gone over but still look like they have not yet settled in completely. On the plus side: My cousin is now pregnant with her 3rd child after not being able to conceive a second child after almost 7 years of trying. Turned out the violence, stress and crime here was the cause. They have a far better quality of life in NZ. Good luck. I wish you the very very best on your new adventure.

I left N.Z for 38.5yrs ago, but now, I'm back and I'm freedom camping. Will be visiting Greymouth soon. You got to see my country before I could. I understand you lived it and lived it here. Thanks for visiting. I'm from Rotorua. I'm Maori but I don't understand applying for a work visa foreigners needed to know that. Lol you tricked us....

Yaahhooo! Finally the heaven open up. It's time for me to come home. I've been stuck here on the rock too long. Oops sorry, I forgot to say, Kia Ora to you all and am so happy to see you all smiling again. My advice to you, please don't leave. This channel come alive when you on it. Love 💘 you guys.

Hi from Auckland ..Oh wow I was so upset for you.. just love watching you and your girls.. I almost rang my lawyer for you haha..So happy that you are staying here.. woohoo..congratulations ..your such a gorgeous family.

We have Raclette here in NZ, but only if you buy one from a fancy home store. Also we have one from when we lived in Switzerland. Not into fondue, unless its chocolate. Can pick those up cheap from any second hand store.

LOL you guys got me. Fantastic trick guy. I was thinking , WHAT! I’m a kiwi and I never thought they would do that, there are lots of people from overseas that don’t know much Māori and have a business so I was confused. In fact most nzers don’t know a lot of Maori. I laughed so hard when I realised it was a joke. So upset for you before that. So happy you love nz like I do. ❤❤

Congrats on getting you visas! But be aware that Te Reo is a Taonga and should receive the Mana it deserves. Kia ora tatou.

Hi from Tauranga New Zealand , I’m a forth generation New Zealander . Loved seeing your videos of New Zealand !

Very funny🤣 I was thinking I've never heard of anything like that then I thought 90% of New Zealanders would fail a test like that. Anyway congratulations that's Awesome news

One of the cool thing's about coming back into NZ,when you've been away,is the smiles from the border, personnel,and the good Old,, Welcome home,,always made me smile, Glad you guys will hopefully,call NZ one of your home's,,safe travels out there,,see you all back here, sometime in the Future,,

Congratulations. You get Visa. I'm happy for your family. Singapore.

When I saw the title of the video I was devastated for you. I normally watch your videos as soon as I get home from work but I couldn't yesterday. I turned it on this morning and looked at your comments and said to myself you sure are the April fool. Congratulations. I can't say you'll love it here because you already know that. How long will it be before your friend Pepe gets here?

That was a good prank, you got me there. I didn't realise that it's already April 1st, 'cause we have 12:40 am here...

Congratulations! I've heard that this is quite a difficult visa category, since they set the benchmark for a successful business very high. But I am sure you have already looked into all that. Another possible complication is that the amount of time you spend out of the country will become a factor in establishing a more permanent residence later on. But you've already passed the hardest hurdle, so we'll done!

Hahahaha Got me too, glad you are still happy and safe in NZ

wow the view in the background is heavily. I need to leave depressing Ohio and move to NZ

Talking of NZ weather though - in Auckland in August 2020 it rained every single day (and quite heavily too.)

Hello all! so glad you guys were able to get your visa and great april fools haha as always i look forward to ur next nz adventures!

And the Oscar goes to .....(drum roll) Growing Up With out Borders!👏😄 Happy April fools! I thought of you guys a couple nights ago, There was a live performance of They Don't Know About Bruno at the Oscars it was really good. 💃

😂😂 Got me too, you Canucks....... Anyway, great news all round and all the best for your travels. Look forward to seeing you back home later.... 👋

You got me, I was upset for a moment. Awesome greatest news, Congratulations 🎊 👏

21:07 🐦 The bird singing sounds like R2-D2.

Wow wow wow…. Sorry guys, I’m sitting here on a Friday night, just catching up…. And I’m so ANGRY right now. This is……. And you just said April fools as I’m typing… I was about to call our local MP 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣… Just soo happy for you

Hi from Florida. Great News!!!

Congratulations! Your videos are always so well put together. Just finished watching your video on David & Boquete, Panama. Happy travels.

Having to learn Maori is rediculous !, I feel sorry for you guys, as a white new Zealander, I don't know many Maori words.

Nice to see Angie being more talkative.

Knowing the process I knew what you were doing but it didn’t make it any less funny 😄. Congratulations and enjoy India I loved it there, so much to see and do and I found the people very friendly 😊

Omg you got us guys that is great trick lol. congratulations guys and looking for new videos

Girls, you sure sucked me in. I am at Long Jetty on the Central Coast outside Sydney and literally 15 minutes ago I checked out our online news about April Fools Day jokes here. Nothing impressed me. And then Whammo......You got me with a sucker punch. 🤣 🤣 🤣

I had to do the New Zealand sign language test twice but you can do it while you're sitting for your driver's licence.

Bonjour Merci pour vos conseils, j'avais vue vos vidéos sur la Suisse et j'y avais passé huit jours là-bas en suivant vos conseils, ça ma beaucoup aider dans mon séjour

You. Guys. So. Cool. That's. Awesome. Travelling. The. Way. You. Guys. Are. I'm. Glad. You. Love. New. Zealand. And. That. Yous. Enjoy. What. You. Doing.

😂 funny you lot, I jumped into the live but missed the beginning so waited for the replay to hear the devastating news 😂 you almost got me 'Angelique, gave it away with her grin haha 😂 and being from here 🇳🇿 I always watch out for the April fool's thing, gonna miss you lot when you go 🤗 would be nice to give our Whanau the send off you deserve 🇳🇿🕊️ 🇨🇦

Hi, that’s great. Stay blessed 😇 .

Why can’t you retest in a month or so? You need to provide that information.

Oh….you guys! You really had me there. Congrats on your visa!

I know what you mean. I stayed in manitoba for more than 2 years during university period. I will never forget winter.

Congrates guys welcome to your home , it's awesome to have you all here as our kiwi family , hope to meet up you all some time , and nice one on the april fools , yeah you got me ! was actually a little miffed that they turn you down on a moari test as I couldn't understand that one , again welcome home.

You should be careful with your April's fools joke. Lots of idiots in New Zealand, like David Seymour, would be looking to use this as a stick to beat the government.

Good night family god Blees ✨

Enjoy you travels whanau and we wish you guys all the very best. NZ will be waiting for you to come home 😘

anjali very shy It's been like this since childhood I think

Oh, Man! You had me going there! Damn it! I was so upset for you!!!!

😂😂😂you got me.....well done girls!..... I'm moving back to NZ in September so would love to run into you. I'll buy you all an ice cream for being so damn cheeky!

Congratulations on the visa guys like trey said it's good to have options. Aroha ❤️

I'm sorry for your experience as such. It was unessential. I'm Maori. But that bites. You ladies are a pass Given.

Woohooo!!! Good On Yah U Fellas!!! 😳🤣😎👍🥰🎊🎉💫

Remember Australia has the same horrible flies and 🐛 NZ doesn’t!

You are so cheeky🤣🤣 you really had me going! I was starting to be so embarrassed that NZ would do something like that to anyone

Did you try and apply for residency.

Chantal, perhaps you should consider to have a short hair cut. With your hair like you fixed it today it seemed to me that you already had such a short hair cut. And I think it suits your face very well. Ask Tyler what he thinks about such an idea..!

Consider legs pulled :-) So happy for you and welcome aboard.

hahaha, well done guys you had me there, congrats on the visa yous deserve it, I was hoping yous would travel the Pacific islands first, have family and friends in rarotonga yous would absolutely love it, but can't wait for the India videos hope all is well😎

Ladies, my favorite videos that I LOVE so much that you guys released in 2021 were "Global Village, Dubai,UAE & Cape Town, South Africa".I am hoping to watch more videos of your in 2022!

Congrats on the Visa, great to have options....
