kaikoura

Hanmerspring lake

tekapo

queenstown

milford sound (cruise) > te anau

and dunedin

Whoaa..when i GOOGLE out those places..i feel in holiday mood already..
here's the things..as a 24 years old girl who ALWAYS live in big (crimefull) city like Jakarta, and Super safe and hectic city like Singapore..These places are like...*Heaven look* city..where there are natural, peaceful, calm and soothing..

*a very perfect place to release your stress*

And ya, i'm going to stay in Arf's house during my stay in NZ, thanks before hand to Nuradi' s family.

Oh no..i'm so excited..

Will update my packing time and all the things later on.

For you...who plan to visit NEW ZEALAND and you are not Singaporean..u need to apply visa for it, and the requirement it's quite different in each country..

- Can't remember..i think that's all..

For Arf's cousin whom will be joining us in NZ trip applied from Indo, he need to prepare the sponsorship form..as in this case, arf's bro..willy, is the sponsor of him.

The processing time takes 2 days in my case, but they said 7 working days or sumting..lucky me.

And if you are a citizen of country like Myanmar..u better apply it earlier, as my friend need to take 2 months before they can let her know whether she can get the visa or not! 2 months man..that's quite long..compare to my 2 days approval *wink
