No, sadly I will only live in New Zealand until the end of June. In fact I have to do an internship abroad afterwards and I always thought of doing it in Australia, but it's not only complicated but expensive to get a visa for that country, so I might go back to Europe then.

Currrently I live in Downtown Auckland. First I had an accomodation which was very bad so I found a nice flat in Downtown finally thanks to my uni. But it's very expensive and a bit noisy there so I think of doing homestay soon.
"Some nice beaches" sounds great. I think I heard of the chocolate factory, but I'm not quite sure. My friends and I we plan to rent cars over the weekend to see some places of the Northern Island. Perhaps we have enough time to see Kapiti Coast, too.
Have a nice evening!
