We can’t wait either!

Such a wholesome video - thanks for sharing. I moved to Welly from Auckland at the start of the year and I've been loving it! I can't get enough of the walkability, coffee culture, and the unique little places everywhere.

@kyliec143 do you mind me asking where you're based in Wellington? I'm in Auckland and still very much in the "pipe dream" stage, thinking about leaving Auckland. Have always loved visiting Wellington though and great to hear you've made the same move and enjoying it! I think I'll do a bit more research!

@@juliabrewster8599 I live in a very central apartment in the CBD along Willis St! I flat with a friend and we find that our living situation is affordable and perfect for us despite rents being slightly higher here than in suburbs. We don't own a car and rarely take public transit because we're able to walk everywhere, which meant that the travelling time and cost savings are enormous (considering how much money and time we spent sitting in traffic and parking in Auckland). As two young women, we find it enjoyable and safe to venture around throughout the city - and find that there's so much to see and do. For example, I can't get enough of the random events the Wellington City Council hosts that makes us feel like we're joining a strong and vibrant community. That being said, if you're not a fan of the idea of living right in the city, you still don't miss out by living in one of the suburbs. Suburbs aren't awfully spread out so they're pretty accessible by public transport, and they each seem to have their own unique charms. I think moving here was one of the best decisions I've ever made, and I've spent almost half my life living in Brisbane and other half in Auckland. I highly recommend it - but yes absolutely do the research to see if it's viable and feels right to you!

This place looks so nice, I love how there's nature around ❤ the water!! 😍🥰

Absolutely loved this video. I've spent so much time in Wellington and Lower Hut. A real trip down memory lane for me. An absolute blast thank you. Take care from Greater London!!😁

Welly is such a surprise city, some love it (like me) and others put up with it. So glad you are enjoying it so far. Happy days x

Just remember Wellington is the home of Peter Jackson & Richard Taylor, Sir's to the rabble, & Weta workshop. Home of the Rings trilogy. Wellington where you get 4 seasons in one day occasionally.

Great video, as always :)

Wellington is amazing - my favourite place in the North Island. It's a beautiful city, and when I lived there, I took the cable car to work and walked down Lambton Quay to where I worked on Thorndon Quay - such a beautiful city ❤

If you didn't know op shop is short for opportunity shop, as in charity shop, run by charities to raise money. But some op shops are just trendy second hand shops.

Oops haha.

New Zealand cities and suburbs are very "American similar" according to many tourists that have visited or lived in both. That's probably why many American based TV shows and movies are shot here, it's cheaper and easier and looks very similar.

Hey Nick, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I was wondering if I could help you edit your videos and repurpose your long videos into highly engaging shorts? I can also make high CTR thumbnails for your channel

It's nice, but it's pipeline infrastructure is in need of serious investment. Sewerage bursting into the harbour, and multiple water leaks doesn't help. That, and a ineffective council.

Hopefully the campground didn't smell like a sewer
