  • Acura Ora,
    I spent 2 weeks in Christchurch New Zealand and I went around asking the locals why they think people should visit their city. Much like the other "Why Should You Visit" videos iv'e made, I kept it simple and just asked a couple questions.
    I hope you enjoy the video and thank you for watching.
    P.S. I'm at the public library right now trying to upload this boi and it's takin forever. I've been sittin here for about 30 minutes and it's still on 1% upload...I'm ganna try to upload at Burger King. Ok I'm out.
    update: 2 hours later. Ended up leaving the library and just using my phones personal hotspot to upload this. wow.

    Born and raised in Auckland now living in Christchurch.
    Compared to Auckland its not as busy, the people are friendlier. More family orientated. I've lived in Perth, Melbourne and NSW in Aussie and I think of all places including my birth town - Christchurch wins hands down :)

      It’s a nice place to visit in New Zealand that’s for sure. It’s a good place to catch your breath from Queenstown as you make your way up to Wellington. Had a good time in Christchurch. And thanks for checking out the video! 👍🏽

    I've just begun watching your videos. So good! I've always wanted to visit New Zealand but I don't think I will ever make it there, so thank you for giving me a glimpse into one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Keep the videos coming James.... and safe travels!

    Love the editing. I love living in Christchurch, it's chill and there is lots to do with banks peninsula right on our doorstep. It's also relatively close to places like Hanmer, Tekapo and Queenstown if you want to getaway.

    • @JamesPrime1
      @JamesPrime1  Před 4 lety +2

      Hey Hayden I’m happy to hear you liked it! Had a blast talking to everyone and getting some insight about Christchurch from the people who actually live there. On my way from Wellington, we did make a stop at Lake Tekapo and the views were fantastic! Some incredible sights all along the way to and from Christchurch 👌🏾. Thanks for your feedback! 🙋🏽‍♂️

      That was probably the scariest of the lot so far lol. One of the most terrifying things I’ve ever done. But I think skydiving was a bit more scarier for me 🤔 thanks for watching it.

      I know right! It was so awesome! (I was being sarcastic as well.) Wasn’t experienced when putting together b-roll at the time, still not very good, but always trying to improve. If you like peace and quiet, Christchurch would be a solid place! Cheers!
