I'm back at it again with another installment of "What People think about America". This time, I'm in Wellington, New Zealand and I wanted to grab some of their thoughts on America and its people. Now this isn't an in depth interview so don't take it that serious, it's just street interviews. Sorry about the wind at certain points in the audio, I'll do better next time.
If you want to skip around the video, here are some time stamps:
0:00 intro
0:52 "Have you ever been to America?"
1:23 " What are your general thoughts on America?"
3:45 " What are your general thoughts on AMERICANS?"
6:38 " What is something you like about America?"
9:11 " What is something you DO NOT like about America?"
11:42 " Can you give us your best American accent?"
12:30 "Outro"
So there it is! Thanks again to everyone who participated in the video!

The real message is that the New Zealanders are very nice and above all genuine sincere people.
The best Australians I met in Australia turned out to be New Zealanders!
Dang.. as a kiwi, that got me in the feels lol..
Ouch bozo, ouch. haha, funny because it's true.
No we're not. So much violence happens here that the rest of the world seems to gloss over.
@@garrick5873 where is here? Violence happens everywhere btw. And NZ is not anywhere near the worst nations. But, NZ does have a problem with domestic violence, esp towards children.
Chur bro 🍻
Fun fact, Chicago isn't called the windy city because of the wind. It was a journalist saying the politicians were "full of air".
I legit didn’t know that! That’s pretty interesting. Yeah man, Wellington has earned its title. This place is insanely windy!
Brian That may be true but one day the wind stopped in Chicago and everybody fell down.
@@JamesPrime1 Brian was just a *little* bit off. It was said that (and still is said...) that the politicians are "full of hot air" which is a nice way of saying they talk a lot of shit.
I mean it is pretty windy there too.
Kasey Wood lol
Old man That said the Constitution is a best thing that comes out of the United States was the best interview.
Tim is a really awesome guy!
He’s very knowledgeable about the US
Tim awesome guy and probably has more constitutional knowledge than most Americans here
@@JamesPrime1 i find it funny and extremely sad that you go all over the world and you find the general consensus is that the constitution is the most beautiful document/idea ever conceived then you ask the youth here and they all want to shit on it claiming its an old document and does not matter anymore and they dont respect it or have any idea what it actually gave us and as a unintended side effect gave the rest of the world.
the same Constitution the Marxist Democrats are trying to destroy?
New Zealand and Australia seem to say nicer things about American
Kiwi here and honestly most kiwis have a positive view of Americans, the worst thing most of them do is stereotype Americans as fat but we do respect them.
Every Aussie I've talked to seems to think Australia is the greatest country in the world and that America is some backwards 3rd world country
@@hollowhoagie6441 Every Aussie I seen on the internet and met in person HATES the UK.
@@andrewbarrett42 interesting
@@hollowhoagie6441 I'm sure snobby socialites from bigger urban areas think that but not regualr everyday people
I love that older guy. He's very respectful and you can tell he's dove into our culture and history a little more just for the sake of it, awesome!
My thoughts exactly !
Yep!
That guy saying the american constitution is beautiful mad me so happy.
Tim is a great guy! He’s loaded with great stories. I plan on making a video on one of his hobbies. Should be great! I’ll let him know that LooksLegitBro likes him. I’m sure he’ll be happy.
Thanks LooksLegitBro. The American Constitution and the founding fathers got it right, It was a vision for the future for the world! James Prime, you rock!
what he did say was very beautiful...We are proud of our country because we stood up for our freedom....We lost it with slavery, civil rights (50's and 60's) and most parts still continuing today, but we are a country that believes in freedom of expression and action...sometimes it's ugly, but that's what we are afforded...
r385671 How can you say that ? The right to bare arms really ? The amendments will never change ! Let me ask you are you a Democrat ? If you are your a Socialist lol......
r385671 I'm not gonna argue with you because you have a right to your opinion and I respect it even though I don't agree ! I'm a combat Veteran myself, did for tours in the Middle East, some people just don't get it why is this country so great, we have freedom of speech, the right to bare arms ect. Just because we don't agree with each other doesn't mean we have to hate each other ! I'm GySgt Bray from the 1st Marine Recon Amphibious Assault Unit. Now known as MARSOC.... USMC 🇺🇸 You have a great day ! A little late but happy Veterans Day and thank you for your service.... Together We Stand Devided We Fall. A great man once said . America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we lose our freedoms it's because we destroyed ourselves ! Abraham Lincoln.
This Americans thoughts on New Zealand... You all live in one of the most beautiful places on earth and I would love to come visit. :) Speaking on visiting. I once heard this from someone, they said if you are going to go to Australia, change your plans and go to New Zealand instead. From this video, you all seem like nice well-rounded people. To the older Kiwi gentleman... Yes an ally and a friend to the US. Cheers!
@Jeri Brown i want to go to there cos i cant tolerate hot weather
@Jeri Brown NZ has the perfect range of Summer Heat and Winter cold
@@Bosstastical One of the few places in the world where you can go swimming in the sea in the morning, water-skiing on a lake at midday and snow skiing in the evening and don't forget to bungi jump
@@pokejourneys8919 NZ is a different kind of heat because of the ozone layer. Aussies freakin hot but the people are friendly as well. Wea re kinda the same but very different countries geographically with completely different wildlife and if you're coming this far across the world, you may as well visit both!
Thank you
I am from Wellington NZ and I love America and am in the US army.
Wellington is an awesome city. If the weather was consistent, it would be even better! 😂
Thank you for your service! Been to your country and it is the most beautiful on earth.
Thanks for your Service, Melchior
All the way from Colorado we thank you!
Melchior Meares thank you for your service!
I'm a United States Marine when I get out of the military I'm gonna have to stop by New Zealand the girls are cute ! And also loved their kind comments about us Americans because not everyone likes us ! I was in Iraq with Aussie troops, we were fighting side by side with them and the U.K. Was there too United States, The U.K. New Zealand and Australia are all like Brothers ! I love them all .....🇺🇸🇬🇧🇦🇺🇳🇿
Ken Bray don’t think they are very pro Americans
This guy doing the video is american so these kiwis are polite with him
@@moshesierra6849 don't agree,and I say that as a kiwi.I think,for the most part,they were just being honest.And that's not to say there aren't things about America we don't like.
In my experience most NZers view Americans as pretty cool,a little in your face at times,perhaps,but on the whole,just ordinary people.
@@moshesierra6849 imagine hating a someone just because they come from a certain country smh.
Richard Scalan Thanks for the kind words my friend, I'm American and there are things I don't like about my own country ! For the most part Americans are just like everyone else, you have a great Christmas my friend ! GySgt Bray USMC 🇳🇿🇺🇸
Chris Duane We have 85 all nuclear submarines and being that I'm a United States Marine a pretty sure I know where most of them are !
If this was a new Zealander asking his country men the questions they would answer more honestly, they are being polite as all kiwis are
Yeah aye was thinking
I love the older guy, when he talks about the Constitution.. He totally gets it. If he's ever in America you should look me up I'll buy him a beer. Stars and Stripes Forever Baby
USA USA USA
Totally agree.
Every country has a constitution. The US constitution is nothing special.
@@jackiebarren210 Wrong. England has no formally written Constitution. The United States had the first formally written constitution, and most if not all others have used it as their model.
@@jackiebarren210 The US Constitutional officially states that rights come from God or a divine creator and are to be protected by government, not given, or played around with by government (unlike other countries). The shortness of the US Constitution is what has allowed for our republic to work so well over the course of 230+ years. For example the preamble of the constitution is only 52 words long and states the goals of the document unlike the EU's constitution which is 293 words long and outlines rights given by government to the people, unlike the US Constitution which has individual rights against the state. How is that not special!
hello, im from Florida, US. This was a very interesting upload. I smiled the whole time, my favorite part is the mimic an american accent that was too funny! lol also that was the quickest 13 min 16 sec ever. [smile].
Hey Ricky thanks for watching the entire video and enjoying it! I’m happy to know that the ending bit where they gave us their best American accent was enjoyed! Reading some of these comments in the comment section makes me a bit sad, seeing how so many people get upset about other people’s opinions. This video and the ones I’ve made similar to this are just supposed to be for fun, nothing too serious. It’s refreshing to see a positive comment!
@@JamesPrime1 thank you! of course! and if i may? you could do one to give a shout outs of your comments thanking all for feedback on both positive or funniest ones like if someone mentions a short story, or bloopers my wife says she loves TH-cam's bloopers ... just a suggestion but people LOVE shout outs. just a thought.
I like the old man's perspective.
He's not that old lol
Wow. New Zealand seems to say more nice things about us than any other country. A lot of countries like to call us fat. I didn’t hear one person call us fat in this video. Thank you for the kind words New Zealand. America loves you. ❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇳🇿🇳🇿
New Zealand is a solid place. Some good folks down there. Very similar to Australia, but I think the land is a bit more scenic. Both great places 👍🏽
Coz he's in the white area
New Zealand parliament in Wellington is a mini version of the Canadian parliament. Very similar values and society as Canada but New Zealanders are way friendlier than Canadians in my opinion. Beautiful landscapes just outside of major cities centers. Beautiful island nation and people. I love the Kiwis!
I love here too ❤️❤️
From this video I was starting to really like New Zealand but if you say the government is like that of Canada then I'll have to reconsider. Trudeau and the Canadian Parliament are not very supportive of freedoms lately 😞
Please don't compare us to loose liberal Canada, they're tyrants. Our PM is a clown who aligns with Trudeau but does not represent kiwis
This is a very positive video shockingly
Thank you for watching it Granola Bars. Everyone in the video was pretty cool to talk to. Good folks!
I LOVED America when I went there. The weather, the wildlife, the variety and the rural areas are amazing. I’m a huge fan of the constitution as well.
Based, you from NZ?
Yep
@@boomertuxx
Hope to visit 1 day
That older guy gets it 👍
Our Constitution is the greatest guide for Govt.
ever written.
Have you actually studied other countries constitution or simply repeating what you hear over and over again?
Have you traveled enough to evaluate other countries? Trust me America isn't the only country that has freedom lol.
The leftists are ruining it.
@@Otrebor0707 the conservative Right is still quietly waiting for things to return to normal. If that doesn't happen what will happen next will make all those Lefty protests look like a kids temper tantrum 👊
Saying that we are the “greatest” at anything is such an ignorant thing to say. We are not the only free country and many other countries have so much to offer as well. However, I do agree with what that man had to say, it is a beautiful Constitution.
Less then 3 minutes into the video and I've already fallen in love with the people of this country
I met New Zealanders in LA once. They were the nicest people I've ever met. New Zealand is full of the greatest people on earth. I wish more Americans here in America were as cool and nice as they are
as a Texan i love that everyone thinks everyone sounds like me :) bless yalls heart.
:)
As a Yank I have such an easier time understanding the Kiwis and Aussies speak. When the Scots and English speak I can barely understand a damn word.
The only accent I can't really understand is Scottish ones, I can understand literally anyone else's except theirs which is interesting. You don't understand English ones though? I mean they really do sound just like the British accent.
I can, it is rough with a lot of them though, especially their slang. The Kiwis and Aussies just flow so much better. I just hate all of the English accents, so maybe that's why.
@@jonmcclane7433 yeah that makes sense, I know they say things differently like how they say "car park" and we say "parking lot", we say "pharmacy" and they say "chemist" and shit like that but I don't understand their slang at all tbh. I think English and British accents are practically the same and I understand the British accent especially since I watch British streamers/youtubers so I'm more exposed to it I suppose. What's your favorite accent however? One's of my dad's friends is a kiwi and when he came over to our house here in California I thought his accent was pretty cool. Not much different from an aussie accent but to me it's like comparing the Irish and Scots accents how one is much more prominent and rougher than the other.
I'd say, as a nzer, we have 3 unofficial accents, the straight up "pakeha/white", the "islander" accent and you have the thick "hood Maori" English accent. The bro who said he wants to play nfl has a pretty thick Maori one
shyry don't really have a favorite, I like the Aussie and Kiwis that speak English, in America I have a somewhat Southern accent. I just don't like most English accents, but nothing at all against them, I just struggle to understand what the hell they're talking about.
Bro this guy in the grey RCKLSS hoodie is straight up Korg from Thor Ragnarok...lmao
@Miscellaneous Mind lmaooooo periodtttt 😂
@Miscellaneous Mind hard bro. haha Korgs for days ma g
It’s because Taika modelled Korg off of the Polynesian accent.
@@MiaBright Nah bro he didn't 'model' it its just his accent from the Hawkes Bay
@@MiaBright Nope, it's literally just a New Zealand Maori accent mate
Excellent video. I love the pace of life in New Zealand and Kiwi attitudes. During my visit there in early 2019, my favorite front page Dunedin headline was "Call to sign wombat privacy pledge and show some selfie respect." This was front page NZ news when U.S. politics were at another ridiculous impasse. I'm happy that Kiwis were focusing on nature instead of covering endless political stupidity in Washington.
HaHahahhaa. I just looked up that article and the picture of the wombat “smiling” was hilarious.

Hi I'm from Oklahoma thanks for doing this I must say new Zealand is very friendly also I see it through Steven Adams ND y'all know who he is😍😍😘🤗
Hello Karina from Oklahoma! 👋🏽
thanks for watching! I actually just recently heard of Steven Adams from one of my co workers! (If it’s the basketball player you’re talking about...)🤔
@@JamesPrime1 yes James I'm talking about the basketball player he's plays for the Oklahoma City thunder ND he's very friendly ND gentlemanly , and he's very good looking 😍😘😉🤗
Oh sweet that's awesome. I know New Zealanders are very proud of him from what I've heard!
Steven Adams is one of our favourite sons. So proud of him. He’s lovely, down to earth and has never let the fame and fortune go to his head. He comes home regularly and does a lot for charity, particularly underprivileged children. Also, I hope you realise, you literally have an entire country that now supports OCT 😊.
I've been to Oklahoma and I loved the people there, nowhere is better than midwest for me. I liked it way more than the bigger cities like NY/LA. Love from New Zealand ❤️ OU#1!!!
Love the respect for the constitution and completely agree with the need to use the metric system!!!!!
Amarican: do you know anything of America
Kiwi: Trump build a wall
Amarican: yep
If this is a test I know our declaration of independence was on July 4th, 1776. I know the "White House" called the President's House at the time was butned down in the War of 1812. I know that the American Civil War's first battle was considered an event worth picnicking. I know other stuff, but I don't want to write a book of my top 1 million America facts.
To yawn-Kenobi I know one you can't answer, what was the first Capital of the 13 colonies? And where did George Washington serve his Presidency? I know you can't answer them ! One more Vermont why is it called Vermont and what country did we let name it? You will get all three wrong I promise lol....
@@kenbray5682 dam i hk want the answers for these now
ggg The first capital of the beginning of our great country was Philadelphia! And George Washington servered his presidency at Valley Forge in Philadelphia!

@@kenbray5682 hey don’t worry. There are kiwis who don’t know much about New Zealand History. 🤘🏾.
Love these interviews. I've watched all of them from around the world. We New Zealanders rock!
churrrrrrrr
I wish Americans were more relaxed, open, and kind-hearted about their views. As an American who has been to and researched other countries heavily, I do think we are more intense and thus less understanding of the inherent good of people when we get our “big egos” up about our political views. Obviously there is a ton of diversity here and not everyone is like that but the media does a good job of fostering division amongst the people. For example, I think it’s quite normal here to judge someone based on their party affiliation which is absurd. What a great way to keep people from unifying by labeling them and encouraging them to judge others based on political party. I love all different types of people and respect the variety of motives behind various perspectives.
The democrat party and media (the same thing) are dividing everyone
If we are politically polarized and intense you can blame it on the politicians for creating sides and then playing them against each other :-(
Blonde guy in stripped sweater, hands down the most thoughtful and accurate person on any of these videos.
Crazy part is that it’s a big cultural change in every state. So just traveling around the USA is fun itself 🤣👏🏾
Whats scary..is these people know more about us than another of Americans know. We gotta educate our kids. Such beautiful, nice people. Very good video
Thanks Chad I’m glad you liked it. I agree with you, growing up I knew absolutely nothing about New Zealand. Not a single thing.
Another superb video. Thanks for all your hard work James
Ian thank you! It actually took 2 weeks to make this because it was so windy during my first couple of interviews, so I just packed up and left. Then I went out this passed weekend and finished the other set of interviews. (I’m sure you can tell which interviews were the windy ones lol 🤫) Had fun talking to them people, they are some good folks.
Every kiwi I've ever met were some of the chillest people I've ever met. Absolutely wonderful people
Smartest gentlemen of the bunch thank God for the US Constitution and not a one party system.🇺🇸
Yea.. a two party system is twice as redundant.
We need more than two choices.
@@tommyhallum2747 nz is under mmp form of government which gives us a wider choice
Your country is practically a two party system. NZ has more than two parties in parliament
@@johnjoshua7134 they were talking about the states not your country chill bro

Americans most welcome in NZ! America is a great place, I've visited many times. Like anywhere, there is some xenophobia, but usually from ignorant people who have never left New Zealand.
I half Agree with you haha
lmao doing great at welcoming people but ostracizing people at the same time.
@@bent3687 It was in response to some of the comments about negative reactions. Like in any country, there is a level of xenophobia in New Zealand, and, like in any country, you get closed-minded people. I doubt acknowledging that reality ostracizes many, personally.

I have a Kiwi friend living near The Gold Coast.
Says he'd never live in the US because of "its brown people issue"
And he is no old man. He's just turned 21
lockandloadlikehell brown people issue? 😂 try going to South Korea as a brown man, see how well they treat you there👀
I visited Auckland and Hobbiton on my trip to New Zealand, then proceeded to Australia.
As an American tourist, I would say that N.Z. Is Australia’s Hawaii... in terms of pure Greeness and almost unspoiled beauty.
IM NOT TRYING TO START A WAR, BUT I CANNOT HELP BUT SEE IT THAT WAY!!
Emperor Constantine 1, you are NOT starting the war, so relax, only difference is N,Z is a separate country from Australia, while Hawaii belong to USA .
I hope you realize that New Zealand and Australia are not the same country; they are two independent countries. So with that being said, NZ cannot be Australia's Hawai'i. Hawai'i is a state of the United States just like marinko40 said.
@@jordikeoni Pretty sure he didn't mean they were the same country. Just the similarities of it being a small Island and very beautiful.
@@petethepirate730 yes,he probably meant it that way,but it comes across as a put down.
As a kiwi tourist I would like to say that "Canada is America's Hawaii" Had to put it into perspective mate. Other than that, yeah it's greener. Just how we like it. 👍
I was so excited that I was going to finally make it to New Zealand in 2020. The rest is history. I'm eagerly awaiting the day I'll be able to plan a trip again to this cool country.
Surprised at how knowledge these folks are. Good people.
I've just watched each video from this series in one go and loved it. It's very important for me to understand the thoughts of other nationals while also enjoying the compliments of some of our accomplishments. The appreciation of the constitution made me pretty happy.
Wow man thanks for watching them! I’m really happy you got something out of it. I appreciate seeing comments like this 💯💯💯
@@JamesPrime1 For sure! This is probably the only channel I'll ever allow bell notifications to. Good work so far! Hope to see the progress go further with your channel!
That’s awesome man hahaha. I must warn you though, my content is pretty sporadic. I don’t really have a theme to my channel, I just upload stuff.

Spent 2 weeks in New Zealand. Amazing people, beautiful country, awesome culture. Seeing the kiwi bird was one of my favorite parts.

I LOVE the older Gentleman and the two young Ladies!!! They were so kindhearted and smart!!! I want to thank them for their comments about us Americans!!! God bless New Zealand!!! ❤️
i was born in auckland but moved to america when i was an infant 😭 my mom's side of the family is from nz (i'm half māori) so every couple or so years we go back and visit during winter break in america, which is summer in nz 😳xmas & new years in 80 degree fahrenheit/25+ celsius weather was an INSANE culture shock, especially going to the beach. i mean you can still do it in the winter in the bay (california) but people only go there to chill not to swim 💀& racism is very much prevalent but san francisco is diverse asf, no one gives af what color you are. my neighborhood is predominantly asian and white, with some south asians and hispanic families, my high school was half-white, half POC. i go to uni rn at the university of utah, and there are HELLA white people and i deadass think the only ethnicities i saw were mostly hispanic, asians and pacific islanders. most of the black community at the u of u are either from a different country studying abroad, or a student athlete tbh. that was a huge culture shock for me too because i grew up around sm diversity, so i can attest to this. honestly when people try to guess my ethnicity it's either filipina, tongan, samoan or even native american lmao i've legit only met two people who guessed that i'm māori and they were mormon missionaries from australia 💀white people esp in 2023 in america are kinda experiencing like a reverse racism thing rn and it's slowly becoming the new normal, i.e. it's much more normalized ESPECIALLY in american tv shows and movies that white people are uncultured and shouldn't speak or appreciate the cultures of other ethnicities (the so-called colonizer effect) etc., but yeah
I loved NZ! I went backpacking there and both islands were so beautiful. The Magic Bus shout out. Kiwis are so friendly and welcoming. And the fact that there are 10x more sheep than people meant you could go to places where it’s still pristine and serene. I’d love to live there some day.
I agree! Had a good time there myself, maybe I’ll go back one day!
These videos are really neat . It nice to hear what they have to say 😇 Love the kiwis up here by me
Thank you Cody!
Love NZ. My hubby is a kiwi. We lived on the North island. Love the people and NZ is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!

Many New Zealanders don't realise just how very lucky they are as citizens of one of the world's best democracies in one of its most beautiful countries.

@7:57. The reason my father came to this country. Worked in the defense industry and later for NASA. He's one of the people who put a man on the moon. Passed away on January 20th. Lived through 2 wars as a kid. Pops was hard core and chose to be a citizen of this great country because he read the Constitution.
My condolence to the passing of your father. Without Immigrants like your father we wouldn't be where we are today.
My condolences to your family 💔
That group of three (two guys and the girl) have found friends that really match well with one another. You can tell they’re all likeminded, at least intellectually speaking. You love to see it!
Very insightful and accurate observations here. NZ seems top notch.
You've got great style, James, the way you behave on camera - keep on filming, subscribers will come!
Hey thanks Stanley. I appreciate that! Regardless of how many people watch, I just like making videos. It’s a great outlet for creativity! Thanks for watching!’
Anybody else’s brains kinda implode when the heavily accented folk did an “American accent” and it sounded like an everyday non-accented American???
It’s like hearing your own voice for the first time through like a speaker or something. SUPER weird!
Stunning
Been to NZ in 2017. Great nation and people. Vancouver Canada to Auckland NZ (14 hour direct flight). Been to Wellington as well. Wellington my favorite city by far.
Yea i agree. Wellington is a super solid place with some gorgeous views all around. But pretty much anywhere you go in NZ has gorgeous views😂
Shoutout to the dude shouting out my state! Arizona!
Finally, one that when they speak in an American accent they don’t say “can I get a burger?”. 😂
I know lmao many of us don't even like burgers. But I do I actually want 2 big macs rn 😂
Yeah nobody says that I mean most of us dont even like hamburgers. I just like salad and other healthy stuff
them five guys burgers though... 😋
Your videos are great!
Hey thank you Harlemw651! I appreciate reading comments like this!
This was awesome!
Thanks J Papi🙏🏽
I'm actually surprised at how close their accent was to the US/canada.
I live in the US, and they barely had an accent to me.
It's funny cause their fake American accents were further off than their standard New zealand XD.
I guess just as Americans can be pretty ignorant of countries outside of the US, so can other countries.
They only know what they hear people sound like in the movies.
i'm american but i lived in australia for 2 1/2 years and i've also visited new zealand no doubt about it new zealanders defintely do not have as much of an attitude with americans as alot of australians.
Prime vid, Bro!
Chur :-)
All in all, the comments and impressions were pretty on-point, really. BTW/I think a lot of Americans would love to visit NZ, but it's probably as far away as you can get from us and still be on Earth. But from the pictures and videos (not to mention the movies), it's a stunningly beautiful country.
Its 13 hours from California. So Nope.

This video greatly sums up the current #blm movement. They immediately recognized the pressing issues we are currently fighting through. Black lives matter. Also they mentioned our policing issues. So it is very much a prevalent issue, and is coming to light now more than ever.
the guy with the grey hoodie :o
Thanks for watching Alexandra from Portugal! Glad you enjoyed it! I haven’t traveled around New Zealand just yet, so if you do decide to go, I can only recommend Wellington so far lol. I’m sure the other places are nice and I look forward to visiting them, but so far, Wellington is all I can vouch for 😅
James Prime aw thank you so much for the answer.
Hope you check Portugal to the videos one day too.
Much love and support ❤️
My friend is from Brazil, he is Brazilian and Portuguese and he really like it here and will come back in 2021, I recommend you visit us, everyone is welcomed in NZ and is polite ik you will like it here :)

Oh my heart! I served a mission in NZ (Aotearoa) for 18 months, and I loved hearing the accents again! They are indeed one of the kindest and welcoming people there is. Even those in poverty would give the very clothes off their backs for someone else.
Thank you for your kind words. I am also very humbled by the way you have acknowledged NZ's original name AOTEAROA as a native of Aotearoa I send you much RESPECT.
That was really interesting. I wondered what Wellington looked like and now I know. If someone asks me where I'm from I tell them the United States. People outside the US say "America". I like New Zealand before this video and like it more now.
0:41 It’s somehow comforting to know that pigeons will try to fly into your face no matter where you live in world. XD
Hahahah I wanted to see if anyone caught that. Glad I left that in there 😭
Never met a New Zealander I didn't like, also Aussies. Great people, great sense of humor, always up for a laugh. Really warm and friendly.
Honestly living in bronx New York my whole life I don’t think I can ever live in a suburban area it’s way too quite creeps me out 😂
very cool , interesting video , new zealand rocks!!!
Thank you Chris.
New Zealand accent is so funny and lovely and the same time.
Awesome fun city. I'm heading to Wellington next week yaay!👍
I could listen to the older guy on the beach talk forever. He sounds like wisdom itself
I loved spending time in New Zealand. The Kiwis were great folks.
I wanna go there.. The people seem really nice.
You should go! Australia is one of my favorite places to visit. (Adelaide in particular 🤫) The people are really friendly too!
One fella had it right -- polarized, different from state to state, so vast. Yep, we are a large country with a lot of factions and regions.
I agree. Every time I leave the US and come back, I get a new perspective at how big and different the US is.
My fiancée and I both want to move to New Zealand someday... this was interesting to watch indeed.
8:38 got an AZ shoutout awesome!
What surprised me the most is how well they know how we are. The New Zealanders or Kiwis, were pretty much spot on. I like the old guy with the beard especially, because he knows our American history.
It feels good to hear the good things they’ve said about us Americans. So many places think American people are cruel & terrible people. I think what a lot of people don’t realize is each state is almost like a country.
I would welcome any of y'all to visit me in Tuckessee. Haha (southwestern Kentucky/Tennessee)
Man.. great interview ! And so glad you got a great interview from the capital lol .. If you were doing this in South Auckland, im not so sure hahaha
Chur mbro ! Solid content
Haha thanks for checking it out THEDON. now I’m curious to see what answers I might have gotten in South Auckland 🤔
@@JamesPrime1 dont get me wrong, i love my hood but maybe? Or yeeaah nah haha
These people talk more intelligently then some people from the States about our States.
3:10 such a good take. Most people don't know just how different each state is from each other and only focuses on major cities
American here but lived in NZ for 3 months. NZ is honestly so amazing, they have the nicest people and their government is on point
A E it’s definitely one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been that’s for sure! 👍🏽
James Prime tell me about it! I was in Queenstown of all places. It felt like a literary picture when I first got there
I just have to say that the two biggest reasons we haven't switched fully over to the metric system are:
1 - There just isn't a need domestically. We use it where needed, but for the most part, the Imperial system just works as is for us.
2 - Changing all the signage across the country (remember, the U.S. is huge both latitudinally and longitudinally). We just have more important things to sink that money into.
Hi how are you doing
The Kiwis are so cute :)
I’m in love with the older gentleman that appreciated our constitution…would love to have a real chat with him.
It is good to see an American that travels so much!
