and i'm here

Why New Zealand is better than America;
- America has a ridiculous amount of billboards and signage coming out of major cities. Everything just bombards you and makes things ugly. NZ has not yet fully embraced this to the same extent.
- In America the freeways are lined with rubbish [trash if you’re American] and the roads can be bumpy. It would not be acceptable in NZ.
- New Zealanders use the metric system. This is the correct way of measuring. Inches, feet, yards and miles are inferior. You should change.
- New Zealanders drive on the correct side of the road and have logical road rules.Americans don’t drive correctly or have sensible rules. Sorry for those who live in America.
- New Zealand is green for most, if not all of the year. Flying over the bay area was shocking. Everything is brown; greeny brown at a push.

Why America is better than NZ;
- It has Beckye, Lizi, Sarah and the Hosfords and Taylor.
- My New Zealand accent is different and therefore I get attention. In NZ it’s cool NOT to have a NZ accent [unless it’s Australian, in that case you’re not cool either]. Over here I’m considered special. =] [not in a bad way, but people are always curious why you’re over and willing to talk etc]


I am loving America.
I am loving the people I'm around.
It is refreshing, stimulating and relaxing.
There is so much to do and see. Just looking out the window of the car is exciting.
It is starting to feel like I've always been here. Like I was here only months ago. I like it.

And so starts my American adventure.
