The 5 months of working and 1 month of trip in NZ - totally worth it.

The visa maths#

New Zealand Working Holiday visa is 700 NZD = RM 2,000. My salary per week working as factory worker in NZ is around 700NZD. One week of effort.

What I would change#

Two nights in Furano instead of one. The snow is the point and one night means you see it in transit rather than in place.

↑ was it any good?
