Moving to New Zealand

The wife and I are planning to leave the U.S. and gain citizenship in New Zealand. I do, however, have some questions which require more honest answers, ones I won't get elsewhere:
>What is the etiquette like, and what can I do to quietly and politely integrate?
>Are there any specific pitfalls or hazes I can expect as an American?
>How should I best prepare for the move, in terms of seeking employment?
>What are some of the better areas? Ones to avoid?
>inb4 fuck off we're full
I am not raising a white child in this hellhole, and from what I know, NZ has a chink problem, so we have mutual interests here. I don't go unemployed, have no criminal history at 30 years old, and mainly keep to myself. Any help would be appreciated.

Self bump. Would really like some answers.

Bumping again.

>moving from a nation that allows you to own guns and use them, to a nation where you can't even own guns.

>going to a nation where it's majority liberal

Its early most people are probably at work. Im tempted to tell you to naff off but you have put a lot of effort in so ill try and help. Fire away.

Bampin

Most people dislike Americans in nz desu. Wouldn't recommend it for you.

>to a nation where you can't even own guns
That's Australia. You can actually own guns in NZ.

What? You're allowed to own guns here. You just have to get a firearms license and show authorities you have a safe place to keep them.

If you're white then you're welcome. Nz is a great place and most people seem to lean center right politically. Just don't move to Auckland (large city full of multiculturalism) or Wellington (capital city full of liberal fags)
Everywhere else is pretty much good to go if you're white. Enjoy.

You can own guns in NZ. Some areas of gun ownership are laxer than the US, most notably that suppresors don't require a permit.

As for the OP's question. Expect to field a lot of questions about Blumpelstiltskin

>If you're white then you're welcome. Nz
All NZ whites are cucked.
NZ white culture is "we're sorry, noble maori, please fuck my blonde sister"

They even copy their culture.

NZ is nothing but discount Australia for indians and chinks.

>Im tempted to tell you to naff off
Why though?

I understand there's a lot of slang to absorb, so as to avoid misunderstandings, but feel it would be awkward to just begin using it, myself, fresh off the boat. Is there a certain measure of common slang shared between New Zealanders and Americans that wouldn't stick out too badly?

I was considering Christchurch, since I heard there was decent work within my skill range there. However, someone mentioned earlier that there was some sort of "skill requirement" for prospective immigrants. Do you know specifically what that entails?

>projecting this hard
Speak for yourself, cuckboi

>le American education
Please don't lump me in with this dipshit.

Don't be a FOB who's only marketable skill is picking fruit.
There's a lot of Kiwi slang you won't get, just give it some time.

>However, someone mentioned earlier that there was some sort of "skill requirement" for prospective immigrants. Do you know specifically what that entails?

>Trump
Met a kiwi here in Kansas City. He was not a fan. Should I hide my power level?

>EU
Opinion discarded.

>moving
Just stay here and wait for the civil war to kick off pussy.

ahahahahaha
I think he's missing the use of funbags!

>wants to immigrate
>doesn't have dosh or is willing to do menial labor for exploitative wages
Good luck OP

I've already read that link, asshole. What I want is more personal, ground-level advice; what kind of skillsets would currently best increase my earning potential and value to society, for starters. Someone once mentioned disaster relief/construction as being in demand. Maybe my wording wasn't specific enough.

I kbow a lot of people that like Trump and don't believe the media's lies. Hell, I spent a lot of time during his campaign defending him and red pilling my friends. Loads of people in nz don't trust the media anymore.

I dont want anymore people here is why i said that. Its a small place and is changing rapidly ruining what made it special.
We get more americanized by the day so i wouldnt worry too much about colloquialisms. I imagine you will find much of our slang quite rube like anyway.
Cant help with the requirements sorry, there is an government website for immigration that may help.

Monday morning lads, do some work

I have plenty of industrial/construction skills, including fusion welding, MIG welding, carpentry, forklift, crane, hoists, heavy machinery proficiency, etc. Currently the operations manager at my job in the Kansas City industrial district. What do you feel my odds would be like finding livable work?

>implying
>implying
>implying

Not true. When I was in NZ earlier this year, I was getting laid left and right. Then again, the girls in NZ are the sluttiest in the world. Data can back that up.

The only that surprised me was how expensive everything was. There is quite a bit higher COL in NZ compared to a large majority of the US.

You'll get a job easy bro,

Very high with those skills. The highest concentration of manufacturing jobs in New Zealand will be Auckland in East Tamaki. Unfortunately housing prices amd rent prices in Auckland are pretty expensive, so take a look at Hamilton and Christchurch

Lived there for a year. Would never go back

Very insular people. Most communities outside the three big cities have lived together for decades and are highly inbred. They don't like mixing with outsiders and make this clear

Third world-tier infrastructure. Seriously, their main state highway between their capital Wellington and biggest city Auckland is for most of its length a shitty 2-lane windy road, turning into a one lane at bridges, making even short journeys take an age

Lots of Maoris who are basically the "we wuz kangs" niggers of NZ, wanting handouts and reparations while dole scrounging and taking amphetamines to help them stay awake through the night to continue their incest with their kids

Everything is expensive, because it has basically no manufacturing base (the only industries are farming and tourism) so everything needs to be imported. Lots of things you take for granted in a first world country just aren't available at all. Kiwis are also technologically about ten years behind the developed world - you still see video rental stores etc.

Any natural disasters takes about 10-15years to put right when other countries do it in 2-3. Christchurch still looks like a post-warzone, main "highway" in south island is still closed after an earthquake a year ago and people are shitting into buckets because of no running water

Incredible buerocracy for everything from filing taxes to registering your car. Lots of things still done on paper instead of online

Houses are basically made out of cardboard. Very cold, no insulation, damp problems, never come across houses with basic first world features like double glazing, insulated walls or central heating. Even million dollar houses are cold, drafty and damp

House prices are high because of rampant NIMBYism amongst the white pensioner population, despite the country having the lowest population density of any developed nation

Whereabouts did you go in NZ?

How's everyone's Monday going? I started work at 3:30am and I already want to go home

Can you post this in every nz thread?

At the gym right now because I'm between jobs

...

Top kek thanks for the laugh user

Oh, thank god. I did see where lefties there threw a little hissy fit about the flag referendum after they lost, which told me they were still outnumbered.

My intent isn't to Americanize, it's to integrate. My wife and I aren't Muslims; if New Zealand hosts us, we're to adopt their culture as if it were our own, and show the same loyalty we've shown the U.S. up to this point.
>inb4 ironic considering you're turning your back on it
I realize how that may come across, but there comes a point when everyone must be honest enough with themselves to admit when things are indefensible. We stuck it out here long enough; crime keeps rising, we keep getting squeezed out, and our media has guaranteed incitement to violence against us. I don't want my son or daughter going to public schools being beaten by packs of niggers while the board sits on their hands because they're scared of being called racists. We never broke the law, we paid our taxes, and we no longer watch the NFL because those pieces of shit want to sit during the anthem. It's getting so fucking tedious. We're ready for a change, but we intend to show all due respect to New Zealanders and their culture.

Dontoy know that New Zealand is the second most least-white country in the world after the US? Barring drastic change, the white population percentage will likely be as low as the US is now by the time your children grow up.

you should look up their korean import air rifles m8

You absolute madman
It's absolute feminist territory over there

Fuck off pom

Have fun dancing like a faggot before sporting events.

Thats admirable but be aware that although its great you wont be coming to some white paradise. We are browning quicker than you are. And its socialist and socially liberal.
Read the post above that the englishman made too, its pretty accurate.

But I thought USA was a paradise and the rest of the world is jealous, with Europe being a hellhole
What is this? Have Burgers lied to me?

The "cities" are tiny and lack the amenities of what most Europeans or Americans would expect. Auckland is the only major city by international standards, but has almost completely been bought up by the chinks. Auckland airport has had to change all its signs to bilingual English and Chinese for their new overlords

No sense of community even in the small towns you would normally expect to have a good community ethos. In small towns people stick to themselves, drinking, wife-beating and committing incest indoors. Seriously, NZ has among the highest rates of alcoholism and incest because there is nothing else to do

Takes ages to get anywhere decent. Australia is a welcome respite from the backwater of NZ but takes four hours to get to minimum. Anywhere else is a whole day's flight. You feel trapped in a redneck two-horse town

Very insular media. Their foreign news coverage is usually limited to "here's what this foreign country's celebrity said about NZ today". As a result most kiwis know nothing about the world outside

FUCK OFF WE'RE FULL. With that out the way:
>What is the etiquette like, and what can I do to quietly and politely integrate?
Don't be arrogant or complain too much and you'll be just fine. Learn about rugby.
>Are there any specific pitfalls or hazes I can expect as an American?
Not really. People are generally welcoming as long as you are nice.
>How should I best prepare for the move, in terms of seeking employment?
Depends what your qualifications are and what you are applying for. Good references preferably at least 1 from NZ is a good start.
>What are some of the better areas? Ones to avoid?
Stay out of Auckland especially the Manukau/South Auckland area unless you like living in a sea of brown. South Island has a far better demographic if you can handle colder weather.
>inb4 fuck off we're full
:^)

Good thing I already have pussy at home making dinner, then.

You have problems enough of your own. Beams, motes, etc.
>Kiwis are also technologically about ten years behind the developed world - you still see video rental stores etc.
If I had a nickel for every instance I wished I could go back a decade or two, I'd have enough to move today. Sounds comfy af.

THICC

>sporting events are mandatory
>so is dancing
Oh, wait
>leaf

I think youre a kiwi trolling on our behalf. Good work.

Fuck off they're full

Lived there for a year, would never go back

Oh, I forgot about rugby. Most annoying thing in NZ, worse even than the shitty cold damp cardboard houses or inbred sub-80 IQ natives. It's the way they go on and on about rugby as if it's actually something the rest of the world cares about. There's endless coverage of the All Blacks and taking national pride in their exploits even though nobody else in the world cares about rugby at all. It's like a distant third at best in the UK, behind football and cricket

>Very insular people. Most communities outside the three big cities have lived together for decades and are highly inbred.
This is true in some areas especially the west coast of the south Island. The medium size cities are OK though.
>Third world-tier infrastructure. Seriously, their main state highway between their capital Wellington and biggest city Auckland is for most of its length a shitty 2-lane windy road, turning into a one lane at bridges, making even short journeys take an age
This is true, it's no autobahn that's for sure.
>Lots of Maoris who are basically the "we wuz kangs" niggers of NZ,
We have a lot of this
>Everything is expensive, because it has basically no manufacturing base (the only industries are farming and tourism) so everything needs to be imported. Kiwis are also technologically about ten years behind the developed world - you still see video rental stores etc.
Video rental stores are almost dead in NZ
>Any natural disasters takes about 10-15years to put right when other countries do it in 2-3. Christchurch still looks like a post-warzone, main "highway" in south island is still closed after an earthquake a year ago and people are shitting into buckets because of no running water
There is a lot of red tape in NZ to get anything built so that's not a surprise.
>Incredible buerocracy for everything from filing taxes to registering your car. Lots of things still done on paper instead of online

>Houses are basically made out of cardboard.
This is true. Our houses aren't anywhere near the build quality of say a Scandinavian home.
>House prices are high because of rampant NIMBYism amongst the white pensioner population, despite the country having the lowest population density of any developed nation
There are a lot of factors here. The aforementioned red tape, developers are only interested in building expensive new homes, record immigration, NZers all want the quarter acre section etc.

The title of that article makes New Zealand sound pretty good.

I'm not typically very social, anyway, so given the political atmosphere of the city I live in now, not much would change here except the accents. I was considering someplace like South Island or Christchurch.

Yes. Southerners are the biggest fucking liars of the bunch.

I'm fine with small towns. A sense of community doesn't necessarily impact my life one way or another, as I prefer to keep more to myself, as well, but I'm not a rude person toward strangers.

The U.S. is huge, so long trips are nothing new for me. If I ever get a wild hair up my ass to visit Australia, it won't be too uncomfortable for me. And I consume no media, from television, (((news))), or films, so nothing is lost there, either. Most of my news comes from Sup Forums.

Sounds like good news, thank you.

Well done. Have a (((you))). Now fuck off

Very accurate. The wife and I are thinking of moving to Asia to escape the chinks.

...

NIMBY = Not in my back yard, correct?

I want to refute what you're saying but there's at the very least an element of truth in all of it.

>feminist territory
Top kek. Fems are hated by normies here

>clean, well-lit
>biker bar

literally wot

Does sort of stick out, doesn't it?
Last one I went to was on Front Street in North Kansas City. Looked like it was held together by sheet metal, car scraps, and prayers.

Good place to raise kids.
No American niggers at all. ( too cold )
Some.islanders ( imagine Hawaiian tier)
No muslims so much

Immigrants are chinks and curries.

All the muzzies shift to the ethnic ghettos here in australia not nz.

Christchurch is relatively white, nzs 2nd city per population i think.
The rebuild after the quake six years ago is ongoing so with your skillset should fit in although lots of foreigners particularly fillipinos and irish have gone there for work.

Yes

These pensioners bought massive plots for pennies and built their houses while it was cheap. Now they resist any housebuilding for their kids and grandkids stating it will spoil the character of the community. They want them to build "anywhere but here"

I'll also add:
>No major terrorist attacks yet
>South Island is 80%+ white
>Decent internet available to a lot of people now - fiber up to 1gbps

Another question, which could be crucial: If I'm capable of earning enough for my household, will my wife still be required to meet the same eligibility standards in the skills assessment, or would she be able to stay as a homemaker?

Youre fairly accurate about your gripes but its no mystery where the whinging pom epiphet came from.

She can probably mooch of your visa, thats how it works in Aus.

If you hit the reqs for any visa that leads into perm, your wife slides in as family.

Unless your wife is literally retarded ( cost to community ) , no one cares, she needs zero "skills" to be your wife on entry

>aussie drinking fosters
fucking phoneposters

Freemovement for CANZUK when?

When the leafs apologize for this

>Good place to raise kids.
This is priority #1 for us. We just found out she's a little over a month pregnant. It'll be our first child, and if things were bad for me in school back in 1998, it will only be worse for our child. Fuck. That.

No problem with either of them. At least they're not niggers. South Island is sounding better and better.

We're trying to move quickly, as well; part of the plan is to save at least $18-20,000 and convert it to NZD as we move, so we can find our footing faster in order to buy a plot. As an American, I couldn't give a shit what the pensioners think. There are ways around their old asses, and I don't intend to live around them, anyway. Old people suck.

>No major terror attacks
That's a huge plus. Mostly, though, I worry about domestic criminals here. A serial killer nigger was just popped here in Kansas City. He was specifically targeting senior white men. Shot some poor son of a bitch getting off the bus, then hopped right back on. I'm fucking tired of having my head on a goddamn swivel looking over my shoulder every time I walk out the door. If I were alone it would be one thing, but now I have a pregnant wife to keep safe, too, and that's another beast, entirely.

>Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers

what a title jesus

Never forget

Yeah NZ will be a nice place to raise a family m8, watch out though liberal indoctrination at universities is still a thing there. All the girls I see on tinder from NZ have "feminist" in their bios

Relief, thanks. She wants to start a business, though, and her goals/skills make it realistic, so we'll see what happens.

>Brit with tophat and monocle
>Irish with shamrock on hat
>American with double chin and baseball cap--
Accurate, actually, but . . .
>Kiwi with fern
>leaf
The whole picture is stereotypes, bro. It's a joke.

Theres about a million people in the south vs three plus in the north.
Colder, alpine climate but still temperate by world standards.
Whiter, slightly older european buildings etc although chch which was once very english in style will look pretty modernist now due to the quake i imagine.

Fuck me, that's tragic.

Hey OP. I can give you decent info regarding this, like really helpful stuff as I've emigrated myself.
But its Monday morning and I'm flat out at work. Could you redo this thread in 24hrs? Probably wouldnt hurt for you to do so i can contribute then.

Fuck off!

I am so sick of foreign munters fleeing their shitty countries to ours because they made their countries shit. South Africans, Germans, French, Dutch, Aussies, Philippines, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Assyrian, Anglo, American, Russian, Samoan, Ukrainian and more all fuck off oh and especially INDIANS!!!!!!!!!!!!. You people infest our nations and leech off of our systems without paying into it for many years.

Make your own country good you filthy fuckwit, we got enough of the worlds human filth as it is.

I wanted to post my sheep buggery flag but some other kiwi kunt stole it. Fuck you it's mine.

s-spooky!

At this point, you should be happy they're white.

Is there a more specific point tomorrow by Auckland time that would work for you? I'd post the thread without fail, if you give me a time and search the catalog.

Ok I grew up there.

Schooling equal to australia, and uk
Child can make white kid friends

Dangers. No real serial killers, per say, no mass murders. Most murder is domestic anyway, plus occasional junkie.

Risk factors for kids at school: Nothing beyond falling in to the weed smoking crowd.

Risk factors for home. Get a dog on the property to reduce burglary risk.

Mass school shooting in history: none

Terrorism in history: the french government bombed a private ship in nz harbour
Maori tried to set up a shooting range for training got shut down

Food quality: better than usa, no corn syrup

Water: bottled or fluoridated jew from the faucet. Water is clean and drinkable.

>digits

Also that girl is 7/10 would bang (if her face was just a bit better and the ears were smaller then it would be 10/10)

New Zealander here, I'll answer what I can.

>What is the etiquette like, and what can I do to quietly and politely integrate?
As an New Zealander, I can confirm everything in the 2 links are correct. It may take some time to get use to, but it is quite an easy way of life. Honestly, its a struggle to talk about our way of life here unless you experience it yourself.
commisceo-global.com/country-guides/new-zealand-guide
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etiquette_in_Australia_and_New_Zealand

>Are there any specific pitfalls or hazes I can expect as an American?
No, probably not. New Zealanders kind of have an undertone of racism and anger which is quite surprising when you meet it first hand, but its usually against other races or people trying to fight against our way of life. But for the vast majority of the time, everyone you meet will be nice.

>How should I best prepare for the move, in terms of seeking employment?
I would highly read up on the immigration documents as they are changing a lot this year. You really want to make sure you are on the skills list to come in.

>What are some of the better areas? Ones to avoid?
You may want to consider the South Island for an easier way of life, where the cities have all the amenties of a large cities but at a fraction of the population. I would recommend avoiding Auckland, it isn't a place to raise a child anymore.

>inb4 fuck off we're full
Yeah basically. New Zealand consists of two islands, with a third of the population living in 1 city, and we are seen as the best place to run away to at the bottom of the world as over here. Due to the ocean that surrounds New Zealand, it has created a natural barrier to world events, with the closest neighbor of Australia 4 hours away, you are seperated from the rest of the world.

This guy speaks for himself.

We need more white people. Plz come.

Gun rights are pretty good. NZ first party strongly advocates. National party succumb to public pressure and will not restrict further. Labor party want us all in the gulag.

Lots of trump supports and people that just don't trust the media in general. You could come over here and lobby for concealed carry, castle doctrine, stand your ground laws etc.

Keep posting this thread. There are NZ threads every night around 12 hours from now.

>NZ white culture is "we're sorry, noble maori, please fuck my blonde sister"

Where the fuck do you hang out? There is a lot of white girls chasing niggers, but the guys aren't that cucked on average. Most white guys I know talk disparagingly of those girls and island niggers in general

I was in Auckland. At the same time, talking about high COL in the largest city in NZ is like complaining about high COL in LA, SF, or NYC. Apartments were going for $700/week from what I saw and public transport is very expensive compared to US.

Still, at the same time though, it doesn't help that everything in NZ needs to be imported and that the NZD isn't strong.

>DESIRE TO MOVE TO NEW ZEALAND INTENSIFIES

Checked. That scene scared the shit out of me.

Mostly about what I assumed, but it never hurts to have a firsthand account. This is relieving to hear.

Im with you but i ate some good food and am feeling unusually helpful because of it. Sorry.

What timezone are you in? Its 9:58 here now, if you post it anytime around 7:00 I'll be here.
If you've got anything real specific, almost autism tier feel free to ask then

Thanks for the links and the input. Looking into them now. Being barred off from the rest of the world is one of the better appeals, though, t b h.

Omw. Second time itt I've read something along those lines, so at least the general opinion is consistent, which is comforting. 12 hours from now is 5:00 AM my time, but that's no big deal, as I usually wake up about that time anyway. Will look out for it.

Heard they have niggers there, be careful

Once settled long-term you can decide whether to reneg your usa citizenship.

Since you will always be expected to pay usa taxes on top of nz taxes your whole life, even if you never return. How rude.

Nz passport is "safer" to travel the earth on than usa passport= literally who nation. Smarter when travelling.

>Its 9:58 here now, if you post it anytime around 7:00 I'll be here.
Is that 7:00 AM or PM, your time or mine? I'm Central, and it's a bit past 5:00 PM now.

you couldve written "this is all true except the vhs stores" jesus christ

Thanks.

i dint see no roo
