New Zealand (Maori Aotearoa) is an island country located in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. It consists of two main islands, North Island and South Island, with some smaller islands offshore. The country is full of stunning and diverse natural beauty, from jagged mountains, to rolling pastures, raging rivers, scenic beaches and active volcanic zones.
New Zealand is a hugely popular destination among expats, thanks to its favourable climate, staggeringly beautiful scenery, laid-back lifestyle and more. English and Maori are the official languages of New Zealand, with English being spoken by the majority of the locals. As such, English speaking expats won’t be faced with language barriers.
