A small nation of two islands, New Zealand’s spectacular natural beauty and outdoor lifestyle attracts many expats in search of a more balanced way of life.
On the North Island, Auckland is the country’s cultural and commercial centre – and a favourite choice for expats while Wellington is the capital. The South Island’s most popular destinations are Christchurch and Milford Sound.
Even the largest companies in New Zealand are smaller than you would expect. Sometimes this is a good thing, sometimes a bad thing, but it does meant that work/life balance is better.
