December 1, 2007 4:06pm CST
Me being a New Zealander (of Maori descent), I am keen to get ideas of what other's think (or know) of our country down under. Please list your thoughts...And those of you's from NZ (and others) may want to add me as a friend. Maybe check my profile first... We just had visits from Justin Timerlake and David Beckham which were bit of a highlight...

Well, I don't know much about New Zealand really, but it's one of those places I would really like to visit sometime and learn about the culture, see the amazing things there is to see! It's very beautiful the pictures I see of it. I think you're the first person I've "met" from New Zealand! haha I bet I would love the accent you speak with. Is English the primary language there? What other languages do people speak there? What are the cool things to see? What are the historical things to see?! I know it is one of the more recently settled places for a major landmass. And I'm pretty sure you run a parliamentory democracy government like Canada's. I heard that Mount Cook is the tallest mountain in New Zealand. I also heard there are no non-marine native animals there...but I remember hearing something about scientists finding bones of a rat or something awhile ago. and I have heard of the skytower. that looks neat. i'd love to see it! it sounds like a great place!
