- Reading: Working Holiday in NZ
Only found the two threads of the WH-hater regarding this topic so I just made this.
I'm 18 years old, white, male, pretty buff and want to go to NZ for ~6 months as a working holiday. This summer Ive been backpacking threw southern europe (spain and france mostly) as warming up, so im not a total newb.
Im planning to get there at the beginning of february when summer holidays are over and the students go back to university. Should be kinda easy to land some jobs then. Is this true?
Is NZ safe enough to me to lets say be homeless for a night or two, or even a week if things are going bad? Planned to do this is france, but especially southern-france is a total shithole where noone speaks english and has one of the highest crime-rates in europe...
After flight expenses etc im going to get there with ~1000€ and another ~2000€ coming sometime in May (long story to explain). So budget is tight. Any investments i should do at the beginning? Thinking of a cheap bike for transportation and maybe a delivery job...
And most important: Where to go in NZ? Any hot spots? Any cool places to adventure through?

Universities start back late February/early march I'm pretty sure. Yeah it should be relatively easy to land a job.
There are many different places you could go depending on what you're after.

I would say the safest in the world. But they might call your folks to come get you for being a homeless weirdo if things go bad. And you know what? They totally have the ability to shit-can you back to where you came.
