I'm trying to decide whether to stay in UK and study a Masters degree next year or instead go travelling again, this time to New Zealand for 23 months.

I feel like I should study again, but a part of me feels that the UK does not hold too much for me nowadays and to head to NZ, travel, work and see if I can either study there or get a sponsorship.

Any advice anyone? :)

New Zealand has never really appealed to me, I would like to go to Queenstown though.

My Uncle owns a farm up north and both of his sons have worked with him and then spent 6 months working on a farm in NZ. I've never been quite sure why tbh, but I know that they both loved it over there, and have been back a few times since.

I've always fancied going either there or Australia myself, and was considering it for a gap year, but I've basically decided to go to Uni next year now, and try and do a bit of travelling afterwards if I can, could find that a bit difficult though.

New Zealand seems like a very dull place imo. Australia seems like a lot more interesting place to me.

My cousin is out there at the moment - he loves it :)

NZ is not doing well.


You went Down under , I think
so you know about Hard times.


If you think going to NZ will be Fun
it is for travel,
but for work - you have to be able to do the Jobs they want you to do.
You do not get the choice as much.


Why not go to America or Canada
on a Travel trip.
When you return
you could be more able to start your own company.

USA only appeals to me if I could do a roadtrip to every state, which I will do one day, but it'll be very expensive.

I was also considering Canada, I have a lot of friends there that I met in Australia, so it could be good to visit them as well as travel and work. Plus Canada looks beautiful :)

That's how long the New Zealand working holiday visa lasts for :)
