Gotta be honest, I do love other people enjoying Aotearoa as much as I do.
"Basically the whole suburb was like a giant hill" = EVERY suburb in Wellington 🤣🤣🤣
it's awesome hearing each of their testimonies - they even have a twinge of the NZ accent - come back anytime - God keep blessing you.
I'm just here to share that I'm obsessed with NZ Rugby. - American living in California
Funny that we think the same about American NFL
@@dailygrindnz6747 no we dont lol mayb jus u
@@yeontop lol explain why my people an others of new Zealand are leaving there own country to work overseas that have better increased pay rates then here, travel to ozzy do the same job yall paycheck will be doubled lol
@@dailygrindnz6747 What has that got to w anything you gone off topic lad 💀
Wow I’m blown away! It seems like you really took in the culture that we offer here. I’m Maori from the South Island and I can definitely say that you’re welcome back anytime!!
Pavlova is a meringue that's light on the inside and crispy on the outside. It's like a crispy marshmallow. You eat it with whipped cream and lots of fresh fruit on top. I prefer Pavlova to ice cream any day. If made properly it's amazing. It's so light you feel like you could eat the whole thing.
yeah its not pastry its all egg whites and caster sugar maybe a little vanilla essence
only when it's homemade though. supermarket pavlova is the worst. doesn't get worse than that
What do you mean "Feel Like"? .....I CAN and DO
..... When no ones watching 🤣.
It's a great Ozzy dessert.
@@mattrennie6876 stop trying to steal our food. Wouldnt expect less from a land of convicts :)
New Zealand doesn't exist don't try looking for us nothing to see here
Shhhhh. You just told them all the secret to being covid free
IT NEW ZEALAND DOES EXIST I AM A KIWI AND LIVE IN NEW ZEALAND
Shshshshshshshs
We can't let them know that we're birds who dont exist
@@kittyworld8873 jinga's click on... it's our secret hideaway.
Well done. Love your attention and care around te reo. Your pronunciation was fabulous.
true hes got potential haha great video and information love from NZ ❤
Here in New Zealand we all share our foods because we love each others food
Thanks for coming to NZ. I'm not even Mormon but still appreciate what you've said and am glad you enjoyed your stay. Chur 👌
I love the description of possums.."like angry cats that live in trees and eat the flightless birds" oh what a gem 😁
I am an NZAM RM with lots of similar stories. I left for my mission in 1997 at 75kg's and returned home in 1999 at 120kg's lol. I also broke my leg on my mission as a ZL in Ngaruawahia and prayed hard that I didn't get sent home to recover. Loooooooved my mission.
i get it one sunday afternoon gained a half a kilo.....i cant resist the food though :(
Possums !😂 “like an angry cat that lives in tress”! Lmao
The Marae is not a building. It is sacred ground, not unlike an old fashioned (English) village square. The building itself is the Wharenui, or Meeting House.
Something tells me most white Kiwis are clueless abt that :/
Yeah, my generation of pākehā Kiwis have to actively seek out information. I think younger generations have been better served by the education system.
@@jan_Masewin Umm no!
Awesome, love how you connected yourself to the Polynesian Culture. There's plenty more to experience but you done well 👍🏽
Yes us Samoans love to eat, we love to give food to our guest
And then when they leave and the kids ask for food we gotta eat the left overs or some cereal
Didn't know Lady Olenna was Samoan.
@@rain9058 you'd be amazed at what you don't know 😁🤣
Wait fish n chips isn't everywhere?
I'm with you here...Who'd of thought...lol
@@kimirio66 wait what!?!??
bruh I heard that americans don't have dairys or bakerys like what? I lived off the bakery pies and lollies from the dairy when I was in primary lol
Tbh your Te Reo Pronunciation isn’t bad. Especially if you are from America. Not bad for an American.
That is awesome! Glad u enjoyed your stay, you are always welcome to come back here in New Zealand.
What not missing anything if you don't have pavlova😲! Its the most delicious dessert, like a meringue but with a soft marshmallowy centre, tpooed with whipped cream & fruit. You must have eaten a shop bought one - they're pretty awful. You'll have to get someone to bake one just for you😃
I actually don't think I've ever had a store brought one.
Boil up? What about the ole hangi?.
Let’s be real though, it’s easier to make a boil up then a hangi.
And fry bread .... nom nom nom
@@muttonchop271 Yous are making me hungry
@@fatdirtygamer6552 lets be real though, a boil up isn't traditional.
I prefer hangi. Yum!
Pav is not pastry its all egg white a ;ittle sugar with teaspoon vinger. cooked for a few hrs then whip cream on top with fruit.
The line between white kiwis and Maoris are faded in my opinion. It isn’t like white Americans and African Americans. When the Europeans came here they bred heavily with the Maori as the white men loved the look of the Maori women. So you’ll find there are more Maori/Europeans then just pure Europeans, like me for instant.
More like they where the only women on the island lol
The maori mixed with European makes very beautiful babies
The culture is still quite distinct though - identity and how that culture is adopted, theres alot of blurred lines
@Sam Style Style definitely we are all beautiful lolxx
maori women were the only women here :(
I hope this channel gets the elders that traveled to the pacific islands on this. Would be so interesting to see some familiar faces that I've met during my travels and their takes on our Polynesian and Melanesian culture.
Bro no, Hangi is the best known dish. Boil up comes second 😩
100%
Nah cuz the Bros on 💯
Boil-up at least once a month if not more.
Hangi 4 maybe 5 times a year at the most depending on how many times your at the marae for whatever!!
You can’t just simply whip up a hangi for someone lol and if you wanna go oven based naaaah that ain’t no hangi.
I'm a NZ Maori and I enjoyed this nice video! You almost nailed the food. Fish and Chips, boil-up with pork bones and water cress (yes, I've had bad ones too 😆) and the Islanders keep shoving food onto your plate! ..I say almost because you didn't mention the hangi or umu. Thanks for posting and kia ora e hoa 💚☮
Experiencing the Maori culture (New Zealand Culture), the ice cream varieties, and ALL THE TERRAIN was an amazing experience. We only got to do the north island but we're planning on returning in the future to do the south island as well. Being from NJ it was funny to see the parallels of having your more popular sibling (NY[C] for us and Australia for NZ) be a lot of people go for work, but quietly keep a lot of the lure and wonder of your homeland as an open secret. It really is the most wonderous place! Kia Ora!
I rather be known as Pakeha than White. Mostly Kiwis feel as One Community.
Love how accurate this is xD Only thing id ask to my fellow Kiwis, wouldn't Hangi be up there with Boil Up?
I haven't had a boil up myself but a Hangi is really good!
Pure joy to watch my friend! This is what I am striving for in my videos!
Love these kind of vids ❤️✌🏽 great stories
Pavlova is meringue..not pastry...
And it's popular in the States.
Great to hear you enjoyed Kiwiland.
Hope you served well.
😎✊✊🏻✊
Te Mata Peak, my hometown of Havelock North wow.
I wonder if the Missionary's flat is still on Middle Road. We delivered tonnes of food to the elders lol!
The best ice cream is hokey pockey. I don’t know if it’s still made in NZ. Really yummy
It's still made by several brands.
Me reading this choking on some hokey pockey 😂
Yes it is. I always have some 8 my freezer😋😋
@chip I once snorted the chunks of lollies. Neck minute all I could smell was lollies, kinda like fruit bursts 🤣😅
u gotta eat the ice cream n save the hokey pokey bits for last!
You are a total credit to self and those who have nurtured you. How fortunate was New Zealand to have you visit.
Allow 5 thousand dollars per week to survive your stay.
Happy vacation.
Sandflies “can” bite you?? Who knew?? Nice vid tho. -from Chch.
Wait till he finds out about Mosquitoes lol
did this fulla mention our mcdonald's & kfc
For some reason that accent when you say samoan and tongan is flippin hot hahahaha...
The national dessert is the steamed pudding(eta: alot of kiwi would debate that 😂) , hangi is the traditional maori feast 😁 oh also.. the fav alkies of nz is either steinys or codys 😂
Steamed pudding with custard and cream. Yum! 😊
Speights has to be up there
Get tui in there aswell, nothing beats three or four big bottles bottles after work of any beer tho
Trifle is more popular than steamed pudding.
@@Andy_M986 probably because it's faster to make. I don't eat it but you're right, it's often made at Christmas, birthdays, occasons held on the Marae, other special occasions etc by people I know.
🤣🤣🤣PFC im literally 💀🤣 sending poly ❤️ from Wellington NZ
Your farewell was hearty
Respect ✌
It was very moving. Bravo to him.
Awww ! you had a wild time here in New Zealand (Aeotearoa ) come back anytime.
Pavlova shouldn't have pastry though :-)
I'm sure I meet you while u were here in Wellington Aotearoa you and another elder baptized my son
I'm a kiwi, and my 12th birthday is in less than 2 days!!! 4th Feb!!!
I miss the ice cream varieties from back home
Pretty cool video 👌🏼
Your pronunciation is great. Anyone born in NZ is a kiwi, not just white people. But nice description of NZ. You can definitely still get hokey pokey ice cream and the biggest ice creams are in Pokeno, south Auckland. The best fish n chips are in NZ and the best mince & cheese pies.
Interesting video of your perspective in New Zealand.
Just some information to correct your terminology in regards to talking about the people of Aotearoa,
'White people' = Pākehā/ European descent/New Zealander.
'Maori' (correct terminology but an umbrella term used to describe 'Maori' people) = Ngā Tahu, Ngā Puhi etc/ New Zealander.
'Islander people' = Samoan/Tongan descent/ New Zealander
Note: It wasn't the Government that started Kohanga reo, they only started to fund 'Māori' people to do different courses after all the protesting and contesting as the government didn't want anything to do with the 'Māori' people nor the way of life. hehe lol
There’s also Cook Islanders, Nuieans, Tokeleauans, Fijians, Tahitians, all sorts of islanders
Pavlova is marshmallow cake, its the fruit toppings that make it, :)
Traditional New Zealand Food:
KFC, Maccas, BK, Dominoes,Pizza Hutt, especially after lockdown
Boil up came from Ireland, Irish-strew, Just their own way of cooking it
Always remember, those people feeding you will eat what remains. The extra you eat to be polite may have been a meal for a child.
Eat slow and stretch the meal out so you don't have to over eat.
We nearly lost the Maori language because the government band it, but thanks to a revival in the 1960s te Reo has been resserected.
Catch a pavlova up. Wish someone gave you a steam pudding.
Depends Where You Go Some Places Food Are Expensive 🤣
Very cool and honest , that’s New Zealand 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Chur on your te reo bro and love the vid
Awesome for our Aotearoa NZ
Hangi is the Maori traditional meal.
Soo true 😊
Fish n chips originates from the United Kingdom
A shame you didn't have a moari hangi
Is that Timothy McVeigh?
Amazed he got a cast for a broken finger, all I've had from NZ doctors was panadol
Kia ora bro.........
There are a lot of asians here they are a strong culture too
Don't forget Fry Bread.
Lol whitebait isn't exclusive to the South Island.
Ok
cool story bro
Population 5 Million....3 million of which live in Auckland so plenty of space bro
Subtitles in German would be nice
Awsome brother
The asians make the best fish n chips in nz
fry bread nom nom nom
Fush and chups
This is a very inaccurate synopsis of New Zealand.
Story time lmfao ... broooo
ffs
By "white new zealanders" Caucasians?
