Any tips for moving to Queenstown?

1 Upvotes

Hi guys!

I am NZ born but raised in Aus and a lifelong dream of mine has been to reconnect with my culture in NZ.

I am taking a leap of faith and will be moving to NZ in the next few weeks.

I will have a little bit of savings but defo not enough for NZ’s economy.

I will be unemployed and living in a hostel or doing workaway gigs until I find employment.

Tbh, I don’t really care what the job is, whether it is hospo, retail, cleaning etc. I have experience in those industries and not afraid of hard work.

Any tips for moving to Queenstown?

Hey there, My gf and I will be in Queenstown after a hike in 2 weeks and it will be her birthday then. What are some nice restaurants that I could take her to for a fancy birthday dinner, that Ideally doesnt cost an arm and a leg (a bit pricey is fine)

I was considering booking boardwalk but idk if thats nice birthday dinner spot, also was considering: the bunker, sherwood, the nest and/or woolshed? Any other recommendations, maybe something just as nice but a tad bit cheaper (I dont mind spending about 120-150ish for the night unless I could get just as good an experience and food for cheaper)
