As a New Zealander I must say that the cost of living here is out of control for example petrol is $3 a litre and most of us can't afford to go out for coffee etc. We fish because it is free food and there are plenty of fish. Most of us are very kind and welcoming people, if you come to New Plymouth you are more than welcome to stay at my house. Best of luck on your adventure in NZ.

New Zealand definitely experiences more extreme temperatures then we do here in Ireland & the UK, I was living in Christchurch back in 2019 and it was really dry and hot all throughout the spring & summer months, I wasn't expecting that in the South Island 🤦🏾‍♀️

@GlenAndMado Год назад

yeah its madness! weather is definitely better when it comes to not being cold which is wonderful! haha

@jonsmith6982 7 месяцев назад

Yes but at least the temp in chch & canterbury region drops by about 9pm at night & you can sleep i live in sunny Nelson south island & it's insane over summer in the area i live .The temp does not drop at all over night & you can't sleep at all you wake soaking wet from sweat it sucks ,i only rent & have no air cond & landlord does not want to fit it either .Even folk with air con say they can't sleep at night either lot's of people complain about the heat ,it has definitely changed & got hotter in the last 20 years or so ..West Coast south island is best if you can handle the man eating sand flies .

@kathyryder828 7 месяцев назад

@jonsmith6982 I've lived in both Nelson and Christchurch. Nelson is much more pleasant in summer. On the 35 degree C days in Canterbury it does not cool down enough at night to sleep well. Nelson doesn't get that hot. The maximum temp there is usually mid 20s. Occasionally high 20s.

@paton57 7 месяцев назад

@kathyryder828 totally agree I've known it to be 30c at 6 in the morning in Christchurch, I live in the Grey Valley on the westcoast it gets into the 30s here in Summer too, North Islanders aspecially think that it always rains on the Coast but most of the rainfall is Hokitika South

@user-ru6ln9er4g 9 месяцев назад

Bro, I wouldn't call the weather similar to Irish weather. NZ is in the 30s & 40s latitude south. Whilst the Southern Hemisphere is generally cooler than the Northern, it's a lot warmer and sunnier in NZ than Ireland mate. Each region of the country can be different from the rest.

@GlenAndMado 9 месяцев назад

this was the start of our trip and after 3 months we have realised that the weather is very different here compared to Ireland! haha!

To answer your question about the lemon tree Yes it can be cold at time like in Ireland,but................... The climate is different and lemon trees can handle the cold We get higher temperatures in summer and the light levels are very high The UV levels in NZ are especially high in Gisborne/Napier?Hastings.

@martinsmallwood9605 Год назад

Citrus grows well in Northern NZ . Lemons, Limes, Grapefruit, Oranges, Mandarins along with sub tropical fruit like avocado, passion fruit , feijoa and of course Kiwi fruit Ireland's temperature range is closer to that in the south island than the north. I can see Glen having a go at fishing before you leave NZ he seems fascinated by the idea.

@GlenAndMado Год назад

The bay of plenty! its magic!. still can't believe on what can grow in this country! haha

@kathyryder828 7 месяцев назад

Meyer lemons can be grown in most parts of the South Island. Grapefruit, oranges and mandarins in the Nelson/ Tasman region and parts of Marlborough. Overall, the North Island does have a milder climate. I'm not sure if it's correct to say that the UK has a similar climate to the South Island though. It does get cold here in winter. In summer, the maximum daily temperature is often above 30 degrees C in Marlborough, Canterbury and Otago. I don't think UK summers tend to be that hot?

@kathyryder828 7 месяцев назад

It's easy to grow feijoa and passion fruit in the South Island. Also grapes, stone fruit, pip fruit (apples and pears) and berries. Most vegetables too. Tropical fruits wouldn't do well here. They probably wouldn't do well in some parts of the North Island either.
