The World Wide Travel Brochure

Heres my idea... I want to see where you live...i wanna know from an insiders knowledge about you country, state, city, region... what ever... post pics se we can see and get an idea of where people live and what that place looks like.. dont forget tell me where the pic are and if you want to any interesting things to see or do!!!

To often we can look at where we live as very boring because its what we are used to and we see it all everyday... but i think it would be cool to get an outsiders think of where we live. So there will be no saying my city or country has got nothing lol remember we are outsiders wo dont live with it every day .... SHOW ME WHY YOUR PLACE ROCKS

We are as i said a very small country which has extreme dissadvantages as any one who has heard me bitch about music will know but it has rather large advantages and in the pics you will see some.. the thing with small country is there is pretty much nowhere in New Zealand where you are any more than 2 hours drive away from the ocean, the mountains, lakes, forests, fiords. The countrys total population is 4.2 Million people.. the city i live in has a total poplation of 323 000 people

THIS IS THE CATHEDRAL... WHICH IS THE VERY CENTREPOINT OF MY CITY

THIS IS A MONUMENT NEXT TO THE CATHEDRAL IN THE CENTRE OF TOWN... THEY CALLED IT THE CHALISE..... I ask you have you ever seen anything more ugly lolol ...and my answer would be no.. what a freaking waste of taxpayers money that was lol

hhhmmm what else

THE RIVER AVON that runs through the centre of town

MOUNTAINS AND RIVERS AND BEACHES

here is a good example of how close the beach and the moutains are

SO NOW THAT HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PLACE ARE EVIDENT ..... THE LOWLIGHTS ..well.. i guess that depends on what you are looking for .. if you are looking for laid back and peaceful and fun laid back people ( AS A RULE LOL) then you cant go past here... BUT if you are looking for fast paced excitement and full on intense cities then NZ is not the place... unless you mean this kind of fast paced excitemEnt lol

BUNGEE

OR THIS.. JETBOATING

OR THIS .. CAVING

BESIDES THAT AND SOME OF THE NICEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD... New Zealand has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO OFFER; ▶ Reply to This

In addition to that, along with Australia you've pioneered the use of screw tops for wine. Aside from the stigma of the aforementioned created by the low quality of wine usually associated with screw tops, science says that the screw top is far superior to the more traditional cork stopper.; ▶ Reply to This
