The title is very misleading. It should be “10 things to consider before moving to NZ” Clearly a clickbait. Just for the views.

Not to move NZ so you don’t recommend to anyone of your family or relatives too? So why are you still there? Anywhere is not easy to live. These are discouraging points 😳

New Zealand can be a tough place to live, but as compared to India in terms of earning and running family, I believe it's easier to survive in New Zealand once you get a job than living in India. I have lived in NZ for 6 years, that's why I feel this.

Hi Ruchika, Really good video. Very informative and these were the details I wanted for my sister. Thanks

Why I wondered, while people are staying and obtaining every benefit from that country and seeing its disadvantages, they are not stopping there and further discouraging other people. As an example, this video mention about high tax system but she doesn't mention the long-term benefit of the taxes. Of course, countries like New Zealand and Australia can't compare with the Indian political system and other infrastructures and facilities. I can't understand why she did not research those disadvantages before settling in New Zealand.

Your video came up randomly on my you tube and I would like to say that I don’t agree with you except for only one point that’s distance from India but then no body travels to India from overseas on monthly basis. Getting a job is not hard as long as you have done your ground work before coming to New Zealand. You need to have the experience, good communication and confidence to get the right job. You can be highly qualified and get a job easily if you have the skills and experience. You don’t have to start from scratch. Weather in Auckland or most of the parts of north island is quite moderate and good when compared to most of the western countries. You see all four seasons in a year and summers are amazing unlike in extreme climate countries. Even winter isn’t too harsh. If people are not happy in New Zealand they should explore out and then perhaps will know how good it is. One of the best countries to be in during covid situation especially for kids. People who don’t do good ground work before moving overseas will only find flaws and be unhappy. Auckland is number 27 in expensive cities so cost of living is still not that high. Also you need to do your work by yourself in pretty much any western country you move to from India because labour is not as cheap as in India. Every ones journey is different and shouldn’t be made so general. I would have preferred if you would have given pros and cons. No offence meant but like you have a right of freedom to express and allowed comments - I have too expressed my views.

Informative vdo. Thank you. Particularly I saw this video for improving my English knowledge.

You have full right to name the video what you think is right. People are wise enough to make their decision anyways. This very honest experience I think that any tropical weather migrant would have. If you go by this review Australia is also similar no much difference.It's not easy anyways ,initial days can be very disappointing before you settle with job, car and friends

All your reasons applies to all the western countries...... and I personally think one should be able to take care of themselves without any help..... NZ's weather is easiest to adapt..... comparing to winters in canada, states & europe.

hi Sis; for your kind information, what u mentioned is the same in all the western countries; not only for New Zealand.

You are sharing useful things...great job...love Sera 😘

Thank you so much for details saare point clear ho gaye one video mai point to point 🤟💯

Awesome video, so nicely explained and detailed .

It's not about "socialized".. whether you like to socialise or not.. You have Responsibilities towards your Parents..You are obliged to take care of them just like they took care of you when you were Child !

thanks u for giving detailed and unbiased opinions about planning to get settled in NZ

Excellent Video Ma'am 👌 & I'm Your New Subscriber. 💕

Reasons to move: 1. Virtually no corruption. 2. No nepotism. 3. Less population. 4. Clean air and water. 5. No viral diseases like India. 6. Good government medical care. 7. Freedom to live without interference of society. 8. Enjoy outdoor activities.

A lot like Australia .. but yeah weather is much better in Sydney compared to NZ .. I can hardly bear Sydney cold , don’t know how people cope up with NZ or Canada weather

Thank you for sharing this valuable information

Excellent video.Mam you scared me . I never even think of coming in NEW Zealand but still I will subscribe your channel

Poor health services is also an important reason. Very difficult to get health services even for minor health issues such as fever, etc it could take a long time.

This girl is ‘bang on’ with her take on New Zealand, from having to do everything for yourself, grossly over priced cost of living, through to 3 months summer and nine months winter, rain most of the time and a law that appears to favour criminals! (I know she didn’t exactly say that but I was just giving her a helping hand). I wish more people would heed her advice!. Well done girl, you’re a every observant lady.

2:58 CANADA? Thanks for sharing your experience , I guess most of the points are very common when you uproot yourself from one place to another.

🇨🇦Thanks for the infos. Thanks for sharing.watcher from Canada

Hi Ruchika! Appreciate all points based on your experience. I think a more appropriate title would be the disadvantages or consequences of living in NZ. All your points will be expected for new migrants especially coming from a tropical country or from India where househelp is available. It is difficult to start living in a new country and get accustomed with the weather, standard of living, cost of living, language, social support, etc. I hope this vlog episode is encouraging than discouraging. All the best!

I have never been to new Zealand or Australia for that matter. Those are the next two places I want to see before my time on this planet expires. I've had the great pleasure of meeting several people from Australia. Only a couple from new Zealand. Beautiful countries beautiful people.

I admire your realistic approach .

Thank you for aware about this things😊🙏 but if possible then please give 10 reasons for settle in New Zealand...🤔

It’s all about your hard work and what you do any country is not easy to live just you have to do it don’t follow the other rules make your own rules

You shouldn't be moving anywhere with these points 😂

These reasons were pretty much the same with European countries as well. Cleaning by yourself, High Taxes, Harsh weather. In return, you will get a quality of life, better education + health, and a good work environment with work-life balance.

*THANK YOU FOR THE IN FORMATION*

I went bew zealand for 1 month i love it i like to stay a life at newzealnd

10 reason not to watch this video 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. All the reasons in next comment There's not a single thing that can stop me from moving to newzealand

Hi mam. I am a photographer coming to newzealand in october. I fly drones. Can i bring my DJI drones there which i bought from canada or they wont allow? Also are the flying rules strict in NZ?

It really helped me. I think I am a bit irked by the whole do-everything-by yourself factor and not to mention I HATE WINTERS!!!!! Can you please tell me if.... you know is it cheap if I move temporarily? Like....live in a rented house?

New Zealand is a beautiful country couldn't imagine living anywhere else

New Zealand is the best place to live. She is just misguiding. Auckland is the best city to move. Please move if you get chance

It gave some insight into this country. But can you make a video The top 10 reasons to move to new zealand from other countries

True, you can get a job its depend on which part of you are living and also it'd depend on your personal contact,

Nice video..I have recently moved to UK and can say this with personal experience that Indian work experience is definitely counted in UK and if you are a VP in India it wouldn't take you long to move to that level . Weather is same as mentioned in this video about NZ. But distance wise UK is just 9 hours away with direct flight.

Hello Ruchika, All points understood & gracefully accepted. 1- On the 6 month winter thing, how it appears in actuality? Do you have any videos/vlogs on this, was looking at your playlists. 2- Are there earthquakes in NZ and snakes, spiders as in Aus?

I love new Zealand and I would love to live in New Zealand but European countries good for living specially Netherlands, just weather is not friendly in Holland. I can't wait to visit NZ . NZ is in my wish list.

The most honest and underrated video about New Zealand for an qualified Indian (any steam) coming from a Tier 1/2 City in India. Spent 4 years all across North and South Island. I picked up my $$ left for Mumbai and all I can say my Smile is back. Forget education it's not even worth the immigration fees and flight ticket for a qualified person. However for a vacation its still an amazing place and great people. If you really want to be in NZ and work a median wage job you'll have put in the hours and work 2 jobs and public holidays. Maybe in a 4-5 years you'll be very well settled in Nz. You may need to rent rooms and have random people in the house to pay the mortgage in some cases. If you do choose to study highly recommended Dunedin as its a student city and will welcome you. For business owners or people who make more than 100k(over 40 hours in jobs) life is way better as they can afford the trips, have the heater on 24/7, afford private education and use money to overcome the boring life. If you think you may fall in that bracket maybe it's worth it. Telecom and grocery companies work in a monopoly they straight up loot you. A lot of people will keep advising you everything will get better after PR. If you are qualified, come from a metropolitan city in India and want a happy life with your partner/family. It probably won't get better. The Indian community and people of NZ in general are very helpful and made it memorable for me. If you are a nature lover and not a city person maybe South Island could workout for you regardless of your income. Please make a wise decision and do your research before you go try to avoid World Happiness Index type articles when you make your decisions as only you know where you'll be happy no survey should make you believe otherwise.

I don't speak indian, could someone please add subtitles in english ? I'm interested to know about the topic

Totally agreed

VERY TRUE 👍 COST OF LIVING CRAZY POINT 10 YES HAVE TO START FROM ZERO HOUSE PRICE IS TOO HIGH.

i was there 12 years back and one day i left nz without even my stuff......but miss those days .......yes you have to start from zero....unless you do not have connections..

I disagree with the job option! If you are skilled enough then nobody will be able to stop you. I was came here on my study visa. I do not had any kind of job experience still I was able secure the essential skill job right after my graduation.

I have been living in NZ for last 13 years . Life could be challenging in the beginning beacuse of cultural differences and adjusting to weather but this could be anywhere in the world even migrating with in India from South to North or West to East or vice a versa. I can confidentaly say that life is beautiful once you are settled down. Offcourse this lady is talking about her own experience .

Look at the view and climate. Anything to avoid the pollution /traffic

It looks NZ labour government will still keep the policy ambiguity in skilled migration so that they can either stop migration as more as they can or protect their education industry not influenced by their actual migration policy.

But dear mam...there was nothing any new reason because it's natural whenever we think to move overseas countries all the stuffs we have to do by ourselves and we can get nothing for free so I believe everyone should try to get best in their career instead of focusing such minor challenges because life is all about to face challenges n learn from them

I just love your videos, very informative and useful 😊. Can I know about nursing opportunities in NZ I’m basically from India and planning to come NZ soon just wanted to know is getting nurse job in NZ easy? After completing my course can I directly get my visa according to my knowledge NZ need nurses

She's absolutely right,i lived there for 16 years n recently moved out of nz. Roughly 8 months of cold. But it's a beautiful country to travel around.

Sounds like the life of Australians. I would like to visit New Zealand, I have a friend who's a Maori from Taranaki. Originally I'm from Kolkata and yes moving to another country takes time to settle but most definitely worth it. Thanks for giving an insight

All these reasons you pointed out "should not" are applicable to most of the countries... not only for Newzealand. That's the fact! Its better then not to move anywhere and be in India 🤣

Please mention 10 points to be settled in india. As indian we are ready to move anywhere between gulf , europe , us . But not india . Which country is perfect please also mention that

Beautiful video like it ❤️

kaho na pyaar hai movie is shot in new zealand esp that song which shows the real beauty of new zealand is -'kyon chalti ha pawan ,na tum jano na hum ,such a soothing song with scenic beauty of new zealand .

100% agree to each & every point. Let's move to Aussie😅

Very good and valuable information. I had been to New Zealand twice to see my sister. What you said is true 100 percent. Now madam pl. include housing is the biggest problem, it is beyond affordability of common public, government also helpless because of wrong policies, no capital gain taxes etc., only helping the real estate promotors, 70 percent of earnings goes for rental of house, even to get house also on rent is very very difficulty. I consider number one reason as housing crisis. I strongly recommend to consider all the above facts before planning to migrate to NZ.

Whatever reasons you have said that’s true for every 1st world country & if you are moving to anywhere from your country you have to start from the beginning that’s normal until you are going somewhere with job

Thank u mam for sharing such a wonderful information

"Getting job in NZ is not easy" Lol. Untrue. For a person who came here on work visa directly because NZ didn't have any locals skilled enough for my role, I'd like to squash this 'rumour'. NZ is a very diverse job market with ample opportunities for many occupations. Problem is most Indians try and come here for 'menial' and low paying jobs for which there is no skill required. Drivers, waiting and front desk staff, cleaners etc. NZ has stopped entertaining overseas workers for such positions due to excessive exploitation of the system. If you're one of them (which I'm assuming the video creator is - then its true, NZ is not for you :) ) Apart from this, I also disagree with the statement about the weather being a problem. Of all the countries I've lived in, NZ is easily the best weather all year round that I seen. "You won't get a job straight away with your qualification and expertise as a doctor or an engineer" I can't stress enough how wrong this statement is. Only some trades require a qualifying exam and you dont start at a base level even after that exam. I don't know where this person is getting her facts from. "No maids no helpers" Do you get maids in AU or Canada or US or any Eu country? Any developed nation has minimum wage caps which makes affording maids and personal cleaners unfeasible. So I don't see how your point about not being able to get maids here is again rational. "Not moving here for the winters because NZ is not a neutral weather country" Lol untrue again and as I've mentioned, NZ has the most adjustable weather of all developed countries. "Tax" Lol again. This stands true for any other country. How is this a reason to not move only to NZ?

A question quite out of context! How is the situation of "racism" there? I've heard very bad experiences from people living in the US, Germany and the UK. Is it similar there as well? Any experience you've faced?

You are one the reason I should come to New Zealand because you are there😊

Things she said which are very basic issues climate ,cost of living not getting a job etc etc but there are hell lotta advantages as well if you have a good academic background

New Zealand 🇳🇿 is the land of my dreams and nothing is going to hold me back from settling there. I'll go there even if there are a thousand reasons not to go there Wait a minute. I don't understand anything in the video. Where are you from?

I'm from California. When I visited New Zealand, I immediately felt the lack of options and resources: no world class universities, no Venture Capitals and incentives for startups and entrepreneurs, no significant Hi-Tech industry, much lower per Capita income, limited heavy industries and jobs, no world-class research, and for a small country with only 5 million people, the real estate is improportionately expensive.

If you don't mind ..what are you doing from there...

2:56 Can you make sure which country you are talking about.?

reasons you should move to antarctica

So true ! Well explained 👍🏽 Migrants have to mentally prepared before moving NZ !

Well explained...!!!

New Zealand is not a cheap place to live depending where you stay or what ypu do but compared to India it provides better healthcare, education and a place to raise your family

Hey had a doubt can i do b pharmacy in Newzealand?but had not passed my 12th with Science stream

True facet , thanks madame 🙏

Don't take it in the wrong way.. but you should make a video on how to solve these problem.. as you are also living a life in Newzealand

2.58 CANADA bro!!🍁 Chill you can move to NEW ZEALAND 🤌Didi was confused!

Hii I'm a physiotherapist in India. Looking for masters in NZ and settling. Do let me know what are my chances? I know about the licensing and all but i will probably be paying my loan

My new boyfriend is new zealanders. He think I'm too cute. He said he wants to steal me and hide me from everyone. He wants to locked me up with him. Is this normal there? Is this not dangerous?

I know it's really hard in foreign countries and all the things you are comparing happens everywhere not only in New Zealand. So basically you are trying to say stay in India and don't go to foreign countries.

Thank you so much

2:57 she says Canada by mistake instead of New Zealand... Anyone else catch that.

Outstanding vlog🎉🎉❤

Is winter really 6months? Winter doesn really suit me thou I could do with 3months winter but really 6months?? Can any1 else confirm this pls 😰

Good evening mam...mam plz tell the higher value of nursing in India or New Zealand

When are you leaving new Zealand for india?

You have said in between of the video that you should not move to Canada.. Please take care while creating such a important and informative video.

Behen...I agree totally with you, I can see hate comments here but they don't understand what you mean. Inko Nahin samjega.

Same thing applies to Canada. Plus winters are worst in Canada

Hi Ruchika very helpful video. Would you be able to tell me what should be the salary range for a person with 30 LPA in India to leave equal or better lifestyle in New Zealand? As an example figure.

Is newzealand safe for girl child . please tell us about this

love this !!!

U look similar to my sister…. Felt like m watching to my sister… Bdy thank you for this video ❤

can you plz tell me....if we are travelling alone ,,,,,,,then who will pick up us from airport .....

At least in New Zealand kids can learn to swim, kids can play different sports, in summer and winter, have more opportunities at school, experience different seasons, learn to fish, enjoy swimming in the ocean or fresh water lakes etc. Sure our small isolated country is not for every one and believe me I am really thankful for that, as I don’t want it getting any more crowded, thus if you don’t like it leave and don’t come back.

The same goes for canada, in addition every thing is very expensive including housing( rental and buying).

This place is Puhinui in Auckland
