How I did it: My cousin went to study there so I decided to go and visit. It's not difficult, all you need is time. Don't try to go to New Zealand for anything less than a month. The longer the better. There is so much to see and do. Take two months off of work and spend about half of your time on the North Island and half of your time on the South Island. Just buy a plane ticket and book your first few nights online at a hostel or whatever, and for the rest of your trip, fly by the seat of your pants.

Lessons & tips: Stay in hostels... they are cheap and decent for the price

Resources: i-sites are AMAZING!!!! They have them everywhere in New Zealand. Use them to book activities, travel plans, and accommodations
