$ - US$1 = NZ$2.3 (NZ$1 = US$0.43)

The best and worst of New Zealand. Note that this is my personal opinion and I only had limited exposure to the country. If there are any other categories you would like me to list, please send me an email.

Places to eat (on a backpacker's budget):Best: All you can gorge Bar-B-Q for NZ$3.

Worst: Patrik's Tuna Surprise.
Places to get smashed/drunk/pissed:The World in Queenstown.
Hostel:Best: Lockmara Lodge - beautiful location and friendly owners, nice facilities condusive for socializing.

Worst: Downtown Backpackers in Wellington - 22 bunk barrack - 'nuff said.
Activity:Best: Tongariro Crossing

Worst: Gold Panning in the town of Ross.
Scenery:Best: Tongariro Crossing
Chilling Out::Best: Night kayaking at Lockmara's Lodge - even with Ludemilla in the same kayak.
Danger:Nothing I can think of... maybe Patrik's super-stinky feet and shoes.
