I can stand the cold there since -4c is like 24.8 F and 9c is like 48 thats not too bad since I live in Iowa and winters here get 0 F and below depending on the wind chill etc I have seen it -50 F below with wind chill before.... ehh 100% humidity you say and 30C thats like 86F, I am not much of a fan of bein soaked with humidity when i step out the door.. but it happens here too, not everyday... but i think i am used to that too, I think I would prefer 75 in the summer..... whats the pay rate there and the cost of livin??

Geez...winters here are brutal. And we don't even get the worst of it on the East coast. West coast and prairie winters are 10 times worse then what we get. Once winter really hits we're looking at high temps of -15C on a nice sunny day, and in Jan/Feb it's usually -20 to -30C and below. And I'm not including wind chill factors. I hate winter...wish I was on a beach right now lol.

I know. Which is why I think I belong in the south lol. I just couldn't bring myself to move from Canada.

Yeah you do get the odd sticky sleepless night when when the humidity gets up[NZ is subtropical].

House rent $350 NZD = $255 USD (seems High) Average here where I live is $400-$500 a month for rent
Petrol also is High figures to $6.32 a gallon
power $150 NZD = $109 USD about the same
phone $94 NZD = $68 USD about the same
and free medical care would be nice

Free medical is nice (It's the same in Canada). Taxes are higher as a result, but it's still nice not to have to worry about that.

I second the motion lol.
If I get cancer, I'll sleep soundly at night knowing I won't have to re-mortgage my home for the treatments.

um. I have free medical care. 100%. i have to pay as much as $6 for a perscription for my dependants, but thats only for like high speed cancer meds and such. anything i need is free. I even have free dental, hence the $3k super tooth. American Health Care FTW!
hell i get an extra $300+ for groceries AND $1300 for my mortgage in addition to my salary. Stipend style...
Can NZ touch that? Also... um
Foxxie: you got a night shot with the lights cooking yet?
