Tangentially Speaking Fans: Meet Here / First in from New Zealand

**Posted by Nikita_Jean** 7/04/2017 10:15 pm

Kia ora! First Kiwi here it seems, lets hope that doesn't last..

I'm Nikita, from the wild West Coast of the South Island. I am a budding jade/green/hard stone carver with a passion for the mysteries of our evolutionary past.

Looking to find some fellow tangent speaking kiwis or travellers of NZ to chat and meet with (our couch is free, and comfy!)

Hey there, finally decided to join the group, to see if there are any other Kiwis here.
Only one! Woot!
Representing Wellington here.
Great to know I'm not the only one of us who listens.

Hey, cool! You're not too far away haha. Wellington is great, what do you do there? A local, or from elsewhere originally?

Hey I am actually from Las Vegas, NV. I know its random but I would love to know how it is to live in a place better than the USA. What do you guys think about Trump? lol

Hi Nikita, never lived anywhere else. Recently started a new job for gouvernment. You?

Jre, NZ is great! Mostly very relaxed. Aside from being in Auckland, you're never more than half an hour for some sort of bush or field to explore. Definitely come! The South Island has the natural beauty, and the north island has more of the culture I'd say. You'll never have to deal with the blistering heat that nevada'S had recently. But it can get quite cold here in winter. Especially in the South Island.
To most of the people I chat with, Trump's a bit of a scary joke.

Hey everyone! I'm a traveler from the U.S. just over 6 months into my working holiday visa in New Zealand and I've been loving it. I'm hanging around Nelson for another week or so getting a tattoo then I'll be heading up to the North Island. Looking to meet up with some more cool people along the way and figured this would be a good forum to find them.

Planning to spend much time in Wellington?

**Posted by The Traveling Josh** 12/02/2017 10:46 am

Probably a week or two, I haven't really planned any of this trip and its worked great so far. Maybe I'll find a cool job or something and stay there for longer!

I’m sure you’ve heard, but the weather up here is currently ridiculous! You’ll want to get here as soon as possible to enjoy the sun and low levels of wind!!!!
