Its okay im from a ghetto ass place in NZ, and even i look at those little stands in the rural areas selling fruits or whatever, and think damn "thats some trustworthy ppl selling that".
I stopped once and the owner was there and asked him, hey have you got much stuff stolen from your stand? and he replied, "end of the day, we aren't making a living selling these fruit, its just extra money for us. If someone is going to steal a bag of fruit. They obviously are desperate to eat, and need the food more than we need the money, so that's okay with me. Just take the food, but don't take it all, leave some for someone else in case they need the food aswel." That sunk deep in me.
I love that
In Auckland here, we've actually got some food pantries on the side of the road in local communities, where people actually do put food in to share with others, NO CHARGE. It's amazing to see people being so kind to each other in this way. Similar thing also with books for people to share. Then there's also a number of "Pay it Forward" groups on FB doing a similar thing. ♥️ Restores your faith in humanity, that there are good, caring people out there.
@@Summertnz yh same in christchurch plus “free food” cafes where cafes/bakeries donate leftover food
awesome..👌🏻💜
Yeah definitely my koro and dad said the same thing. We actually cant eat it all but if they want to koha a 50c for a 1kg of Orange then thats ok. My koros had iou in his bix and those were honest.
Watching foreigners thoughts on my country has really opened my eyes to differences I didn't know about and given me a new appreciation for my home
Me too! My cousin lives in America and she said that when you buy stuff from a shop they charge tax at the counter... so whatever the sign says on the product is not actually what you pay at the checkout! Now, that's weird! In NZ, for example, if a product label says $4.95, you pay $4.95 at the checkout. Aaaaand... if the product says $4.95 and you pay $5.95 at the counter, you can return to the store and show the receipt to say that you paid more than what the product displayed, you'll get a refund of the total price you paid. Yep. I appreciate NZ more than I ever have before xx
In NZ when we learn the road code and sit our drivers license we are reminded it’s a legal requirement to slow and check pedestrian crossings and if someone is approaching you must slow to check if they’re crossing. The pedestrian has right of way so really that lady needs to look at the road code. Lol.
yuh this. it's also very common for cars to wait until the pedestrian has crossed completely even if they way for the vehicle is clear (if they already passed your bonnet).
interesting thing i observed, when pedestrians are crossing the road with traffic lights vehicles are supposed to giveaway to all pedestrians crossing. here in New Zealand cars turning left slowly edge up to the guided lines of the crossing and even begin to accelerate as you approach the curb. went overseas for 2weeks and this NEVER happened during my stay in Hawaii. weird feeling
7yrs here and doesn't know how a zebra crossing works
You wanna remind my area bout that rule? lol
@@LowBudgetKiwi what area bro I don’t want specifics just north or south is. And what half
@@ibrahimstevens3926yep it is the law if you hit a pedestrian on a crossing you are going to be arrested
When driving and you see a zebra crossing you automatically slow down and double make sure no pedestrians are about to cross. It will always be the drivers fault if you hit a pedestrian on a crossing in New Zealand 100%
ANSWER TO "How does it feel to hear people from outside comment on our way of life?" ANSWER: Most people here know US has it hard compared to us, We're so small we can make decisions for ourselves that make sense. You guys are so big that there are so many varying opinions that your system means you get grid locked. I do feel for the US but u also have many good parts to .
I seen a story about a cruise ship that stopped somewhere in nz and it was full of Americans, they went to a vineyard to eat and have wine etc and it was like 4:30 in the afternoon and the owner said to them “hey sorry guys we are closing for the day” and the tourists were begging like we will buy so much food and wine you will make so much money blah blah and he just went “nah. I wana go home and hang out with my kids and I’m not going to make my staff stay longer than they are supposed to 🤷🏽♂️ and then he just said you guys can hangout until you’ve finished your drinks and just left 😂
I own a restaurant in NZ. When a customer can't pay due to a credit card default, or forgetting to bring one. I give them our bank account details and they pay on line. Has happened numerous times and they never fail. Honesty and trust matters.
Twano, I just opened a new restaurant here in NZ a customer couldn't pay because we hadn't set up paywave. Gave him internet banking details. Next day he paid $200 instead of his $162 bill. EFTPOS electronic fund transfer point of sale
You brough up "Paywave"....now you are going to have to explain how that works 😆It is one step up from an EFTPOS card....would probably blow most peoples minds 😊
in New Zealand you can literally go to school barefoot and most people will just go barefoot if they need to get something quick
Im from NZ bro and I live here now, its not hugely common but its not looked down on in the rural areas or beach areas to go barefoot. makes sense especially when ur in and out of areas that dont requiure footwear
like the beach. The weirdest thing is wearing shoes at the beach. NZ dont ever do that! theyd be laughed at. Why get sand all up in ur shoes u know
You haven't been to Bethells Beach (near Piha) then mate!! 🤣 Definitely need ya shoes there! Black sand there, 🥵 as FCK!! But that would be the rare exception. (Btw, that's pronounced "Pee-ha", Twano 😄)
unless the sand is hot, thats why we need a pair of flip flops
@@gregnz1 😱 F the jandals bro! They won't fckn help!! 🥵🤣
🤣🤣truth
@@gregnz1 🤣👍🏻and Sox's on
Typically in nz when we meet people for the first time we try to form a connection by asking you where you’re from…who your family is…I really don’t care what people do for a job…like…so?
I had baked beans on toast for breakfast and it was bloody good!
You’re supposed to slow down for people on a cross walk. They have the right of way.
Sausage and hot dogs and 2 completely different things…sausage sizzle and hot dogs are 2 completely different things.
We say debit and eftpos. It’s the same thing.
My wife hates me walking at a shopping mall/supermarket barefoot hahaha. Kiwi/Samoan now living in Australia
I literally had baked beans on toast for breakfast 😂 my little bro had it 20 mins ago for a snack.
Me too…well not 20 minutes ago…but earlier today.
I've had for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Not all in one day though.
I buy those 3kg cans of Watties 😁
yeah but it's gotta be steaming hot, the picture and the fact they show a raw tin of beans is deceiving. for breakfast i'm gonna get baked beans on toast and a sunnyside up egg and some bacon but it's always steaming hot, not cold, especially from a diner.
The typical question in nz would usually be where are you from? because not only are you genuinely interested but usually that question can open up space to talk about so many things like background stories, what ethnic group you are, beliefs, food etc
Here in Nz Crosswalks will mostly be around schools or slower areas eg City Centre where the speed limit is lower, over here the pedestrian crosswalk has right of way
When I first started watching these videos I was shocked at how loosely you use the term “nasty” but now it just makes me laugh, like calling baked beans on toast nasty that cracked me up 😂 to me nasty would be shit smeared on a wall or something like that lmao.
😂😂
being rejected isnt being nasty, its just an approach, i use to go to bars a lot,
i didnt get into Bar fights, is that another story for Twano, what gets you into a bar fight?
Assault is only a misdemeanor here, most of the time the police will not arrest someone, =or make us pay a fine,
Whats wrong with a hot cooked breakfast?
Trick with the baked beans. Let the toast cool a little. Add a load of butter (swimming). Add beans. Salt. Pepper. Boom. You’re officially colonised 😆
Baked Beans on toast is an english thing, part of a full English breakfast. Also, its called Eftpos (Electronic Funds Transfer at Point Of Sale) because debit didnt exist via Visa / Mastercard in 1985 when it was implemented.
Its also a kiwi thing lol imported from the english when they got here
This is not so popular anymore.. because it’s disgusting
@@antonytjp nah its solid just gotta get that butter to bean ratio right
@@antonytjp Nothing better when your hangin than a full english breakfast with baked beans on toast.
Food can be very subjective, personally I can't stand Baked Beans either, 🤮. Not a fan of canned spaghetti either which is similar, but would only eat canned spaghetti inside a toasted sandwich with 🧀.
New Zealand has a relatively small population that is reasonably static due to being islands and are relatively tech savvy. That allows companies to test a product on us to see if it works before they release it onto a much larger population. We have been used to test banking systems like eftpos (which was around before debit cards) and have lead the world in a lot of areas. Other products are tested as well, soft butter was one of those. Generally if the Kiwi's take to it most other populations will as well.
I'm from NZ, the way we handle money is probably the biggest difference I notice when traveling to other countries. In NZ we hardly use cash anymore, everything is through internet banking, eftpos, transfers etc so easy. Cheques are ancient now, you can't use them.
Most of what she says is true! Except the eating on the beach thing... how does she get sand in her food?? 😆
Agree, cheques are dead ducks, who carries cash 💸 now, no one pretty much.
@@laracook433 Me, and plenty of others. Cash is actually still pretty useful, and a fair number of smaller outfits still prefer to be paid in cash if possible. Cheques are Well dead though. Direct bank transfers and eftpos have entirely replaced them.
You are unable to use cheques in NZ even Bank Cheques or Travelers cheques. You would need to go to a bank to "Cash" them and would probably be advised to obtain through the bank you are dealing with to set up a debit/EFTPOS card so that you can use it for purchases. Or if you must use cash, most retailers would probably cash out what you need on the debit card as cash is a messy and pricy form of money to deal with for them and the more they can get rid of the cash for credit into their account the better off they are. Day to day banking here in NZ is as simple as going on line and setting up simple payment methods so that you never have to think about having to pay your bills on time. Heck you can borrow money off your bestie and pay them back with just the simple use of a mobile phone. Money transfers between banks for the most part are instant or at the worst 24 hours. EFTPOS (Electronic Funds Transfer Point Of Sale) means that it can be months before you see cash as you use your card for every purchase, including buying a beer at the bar, getting your hair cut and as for getting petrol for your car....you pull up to the pump, insert your card into the pump fill your car and be on your way with not an attendant in sight anywhere as they are not required. You are able to do all of the above with out bank fees attached to a Credit/Debit card.
Hey, I just had baked beans, with cheese, on toast last night. To be honest my love of baked beans is a result of watching "Trinity" the gunslinger American sitcom. The way he ate them and used his bread to clean the pan just looked so tasty and hearty. I thought it was a typical cowboy meal? lol From Auckland, New Zealand.
Big time, life wouldn’t be the same without baked beans on toast w/cheese!
Trinity, lol A role model for most bean loving Kiwis in Midlife generations.. The Americans must of forgot.
@@michaelhohaia1651 Ae Bro.
So true beans on toast is like top tier breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It’s great for any meal. Even just warmed up beans I eat them out of a can sometimes😂
With promite
Hey bro, great video btw just want to add a few things
1. Walking barefoot - most New Zealanders do this regardless, especially by beach towns or in the country
2. Eftpos - this is when $$$ comes directly from your bank account or Credit Card company at point of sale
3. Baked Beans on Toast - Yes it’s a great breakfast meal
4. Fruit Stands etc yep this is based on Honesty - pay if you can, we also have stands in the community whereas anyone can put food in it for those less fortunate - all food is donated and is for free, it’s literally a pantry on the side of the road
5. NZ is a small country with a population of 5 million so we are wide open spaces
Most NZders dont like making others feel smaller.
40 years old, travelled the world, never seen another human, white or black. Light skinned, dark skinned, who the hell cares. Your colour is in your heart!
Everything Tara says is accurate bro
The bean thing is typically with a full breakfast tho. which is like bacon,sausage, hash browns, grilled tomato and mushrooms and beans on toast
@@weewee1able only in restaurants bro, at home you don't make the full English breakfast.
An italian man was blown out of this world because he didnt see the shoes on our feet and he felt he was being disrespectful to ask "where are your shoes" but i just laughed it off and said i didnt need them, so he took his shoes and socks off and he said he felt so much better 😂😂😂
As for jobs, no one wants to talk about work when they are off the clock for real 😂
Yeah hard out in NZ it is normal for people to not have shoes on but if you were born out in the bush no one would want to wear nice looking shoes just to get them dirty soo they put gunboats on it’s just common sence
Hot dogs are not the same as bbq sausages. Here in Australia there is the frankfurters (hot dog) then from the meat department or butchers is the bbq sausages that are a ground up fine beef, lamb, pork or chicken with seasoning and spices then placed in an edible casing and cooked in a pan, or on a grill (bbq)
@@Write.a.holicc no actually the video he was watching show bbq sausages as in sausage sizzle style and he called them hot dogs which they are not
I lived in California for a year, it made me appreciate just how good we have it here. We have our problems, but nothing compared to the US.
It's a law here in NZ u have to slow down and stop if u can for pedestrian crossing only though
It’s definitely the cars that stop for pedestrians, it’s not the pedestrians just walking and expecting the cars to stop, mannerisms all over. Side note: the money transfers are just immaculate definitely something that is very useful.
That fish and chips on the beach thing though... come on man just properly! 😂 who's getting sand all in their food WTF I been eating all sorts of food at the beach in NZ my whole life and never had an issue with sand in my food. But man there's so many things we take for granted in NZ until someone points it as being kind of unusual. Like the whole friends occupation thing, not true for everyone but still very true some of my very close friends. I have an idea about what they do but not very in depth. The fruit stand thing isn't everywhere either but does exist in places. The bank transfer thing is still a bit confusing, if I need to pay a friend for sonething I just send them money to their account my app saves their details. Can even make automatic payments to a landlord for rent for example. It's surprising that it's not normal elsewhere.
The nice US lady lives in windy Wellington - the beach invades the fish and chips before the seagulls arrive
beans slap bro don’t disrespect them they bang u can eat them anytime of day
I live in Darwin Australia and people do walk around with no shoes.
😂😂love it! These things are totally normal to us kiwi's and it's crack up seeing foreigners reactions to them!
Sausage sizzles are the best
Fun fact: Pedestrians at a zebra crossing technically have right of way... Its actually in our road code.
This list is mostly true. Beans on toast is very normal here with eggs etc. It's common in England to. I would also add that many schools are multicultural and celebrate culture with festivals. New Zealand has a large Pacific Islands population . Indigenous Maori culture is incorporated education. It is not perfect but I appreciate it.
Eftpos is just what the company is called. Yes we do enter supermarkets bare foot, most don't some do. There is very little difference between normal bread and buns, I don't see a problem.
I'm a New Zealander and LOTS of us walk barefoot ... it's a freedom we embrace. Most of the clips on TH-cam and tik tok are taken by tourist ... in urban centre and at amusements. Where sometimes barefoot isn't acceptable, but everywhere else barefoot for the win. At least 10% of NZ'ers are always in bare feet. I only wear shoes when I HAVE to so for work of evening events, dinner etc. From being a kid I wear shoes ONLY when I have to otherwise why would I wrap my feet in sock and shoes on a hot day .... that's madness.
They're called Pedestrian Crossings in New Zealand and if some one is approaching one ALL cars have to stop and give right of way. If you don't use a crossing then you have to wait for cars but if you're at a Ped Cross the cars HAVE to give way.
Sausages in bread is for convenience, a sausage in NZ almost always comes with a sauce. Give a kid a sausage covered in tomato sauce and what happens ... mess everywhere. Wrap it in bread and it's got an edible wrap that keeps the sauce and meat juices in one place ..... easy peasy. BBQ's are big in New Zealand along with kids .... it's a simple fix. We are a pragmatic people. Also don't knock it until you've tried it.
This whole talking about what you do first up is about social standing and judging people. I don't give a shit about wether you are a rocket scientist or a rubbish collecter ...... what matter is ... Are you a nice person. Work is NOT a part of that assessment, people who talk about work first are 'Penis measuring' so they can feel worse or better about themselves, maybe it's connected to the anxiety you'll feel all the time.
EFTPOS was introduced years ago and it stands for Electronic Funds Transfer at Point Of Sale. So kiwis call them EFTPOS, we're more likely to call a Credit Card a debit card because you're using someone else's money. EFTPOS is for specifically paying directly from your bank account to the shop so it comes out from your account immediately. Super convenient and safe.
Hearing people talk about NZ makes us incredibly proud and thankful that we live in such an amazing place and very happy that I don't live in America.
Come visit, the beers cold and waiting.
Peace.
I'm having a couple of buns rights now with meatloaf from a can 😆 🤣
Baked Beans on toast is all about the melted butter, the crunch of the toast and subtle sweetness of the tomato sauce the beans is in.
I used to walk everywhere in bare feet when I was a kid lol. My feet were hard af too. Could run over rocks and everything. Not anymore they soft af now lol
20. Cooked baked beans, lather that toast up with butter and fit to gooooooo
19. Fruit stalls and honesty boxes etc you’ll mostly find in the rural communities and honestly.. amazing. Why pay for fruits/vegetables at major food stores when you can buy organic and support ya local
18. Unless you get paid overtime - you go when you supposed to
17. Walking barefoot - yeah people do.. it’s not all the time but you do see it
16. And yeah like… it’s like that’s your business what you do ya know? Lol
15. Fish and Chips.. that’s why they have picnic tables or you take your own mat like.
14. Pedestrian? Dw, we look before we cross but if you’re in your car and can see us walking, yo ass finna be stepping on that brake 😂
13. Sausage sizzle nom nommm fried onion and tomato sauce during summer = tasty snack. Just a cheaper version of a hotdog, don’t hate it til you try it :)
12. Wait… America don’t use EFTPOS?? wow just swipe your card or you can use paywave lol
11. Hmmm we can give our account numbers but we still cautious. Usually money takes 1-3 days to go into the other persons account depending on which bank they’re with
That can of baked beans cooked with cream is actually my favourite breakfast on toast 😂
In America, while your money takes '3-4 days to move through the system', what they don't tell you is they have access to immediately and lend it out on those 3-4 days on the spot market.
What great people they are.
bake beans on toast are nice asf trust me !
What type of beans do you use
@@Twano2am Watties
@@Twano2am or heinz
Any brand of bake beans in a can put them in a pot on the stove they take like 3 mins to cook (heat through) then put them on buttered toast a sprinkle of grated cheese salt and pepper, we on👌🏽
🤮 pass... Whatever floats ya boat Holic 2AM 😉😄
You can't defeat what isn't mean to be defeated...so live with it
In New Zealand you legally have to stop for people on a pedestrian crossing. So you naturally slow down on approach to check for pedestrians
I am from NZ we have a stand outside our house. Everything on it is free. People just put things on it to give away. We have no snakes or real poisonous spiders here so barefoot safe for that reason also. Chur bro!
when we were kids we used to just stroll out onto the pedestrian like it was a force field 😂
Waddup Uce
Debit is the Universal term but NZ has always been considered quite advanced in money purchases/transfer/uses (eg. we finally discontinued the use of cheques because it became obsolete). CREDIT however would be the Mastercard and Visa noise, but EFTPOS makes it simple it surprises me how many people from the US have never heard of this system. The Bank Transfer thing is the most safe process, cos the Banks are "Secured" cos if you think about it, Cash App, PayPal, Wise are all Third Party apps. Middle Man Profits. Transferring funds the Uso can happen instant depending on the bank, or couple hours, not on weekends lol.
Oh the Beans on Toast, I'd rather spaghetti with cheese, or flying saucers / toasties.. BOMB G..
Also the white bread thing… sandwich everything bro. We would go to a restaurant and take a loaf of buttered bread and sandwich our food. Leftovers get put into bread. A pie, into bread. Pasta, into bread. Sandwich absolutely everything
We DEFINITELY walk barefoot everywhere...even going hunting for pigs in the bush...no bs
i guess you don't get many pigs -.-
It makes me as a Kiwi appreciate our lives here. Seeing people reacting about our country is very cool, i certainly take the little things for granted but id miss them if they weren't there. Mean reaction brother NZ would definitely welcome you hard.
People for sure go barefoot here in NZ.
Another thing we have in NZ is Tap & Go, which is when you pay for things with your bank card you can tap your bank card on the EFTPOS machine and money comes out of your account.
Honestly don't hate on the sausage sizzle until you've tried one, (which is sausage on white bread with cooked onions and tomato sauce) it's Delicious.
but i also understand that it may sound weird to you if you're use to the bun.
With the bank transfer if your with the same bank you see the money straight away if you're not with the same bank you have to wait overnight.
simpler compared to other countries.
the freedom we have here in NZ i am grateful for, you definitely need to come to NZ and experience our laid back, easy going lifestyle and our amazing culture that NZ has.
I need part two please!!!!!
I'm Maori and in the small towns it is normal to walk around bare foot.
Yea the tea/coffee/milo is to welcome you and make you feel at home, sometimes we cook for guests...baked bean on toast is sometimes a breakfast, there's cereals too and eggs on toast and weetbix etc etc...and yea we sometimes go barefooted if it's short distances or if we just getting out the car or if our heels hurt when walking downtown, it's ok we have stockings, or on the beach walking to the shops to get food, or in the country, up to u lol...we have hot dog buns here too so if u don't like the white bread then feel free to have the bun lol which is white on the inside too (meaning the bun is white bread too just more of it) j/s...we say efpos and debit card depends on the person you pay...the giving of the bank account, to transfer money, doesn't mean they can hack ur account because it requires a username and a password to get into ur account. and as for the coffee you can make it strong or lighter...and yes compared to other countries there's a lot of things we're grateful for but we still have a long way to go.
Australia is very similar to NZ, walk barefoot, sausage sandwiches,trust system with roadside stands,etc. 90% of both peoples are kind and decent.
It's very European down here and not all maori speak the same as there's many different dialects coz many tribes over the roughly 1000 yrs
I walk barefoot everywhere I can. Most children (foster mum), rip their shoes off at my door and spend the rest of their stay barefoot (inside and out) 😂😂😂
As a just turned 30 year old kiwi here is my opinion/thoughts:
1) Yeah beans on toast pretty common. Bit strange if she bought breakfast and that's all it was. Beans should only be included in something like a full English breakfast as part of it. Not it's own full paid for meal.
2) Never personally bought anything from the fruit/vege stands but they are common in rural areas/small towns. Honour/trust system surprisingly works well. Most people that would steal from them live in the big cities so probably don't come across them much.
3) My last job I would finish at the time it said I would. My current job I often work well longer than my contracted 40 hours. It's just down to the job you have.
4) Definitely don't see as much barefoot as used to. This is more rural communities rather than big cities but you do get the odd person in the Supermarket or something going barefoot. I don't know why it's such a big deal. Like what's it got to do with you if someone is barefoot? Just move on.
5) Yeah I couldn't care much what other people do for work. I only know immediate family/closest friends jobs and really it's only roughly what they do.
6) F&C on the beach. Unless it's a windy day I don't know why shes on about getting sand in your food. I don't think many people actually eat it ON the beach. Usually at a bench/table alongside the beach.
7) By law, drivers are required to stop for a pedestrian wanting to use a Zebra crossing. Only idiots just walk out in front of the traffic without looking though. The law is if a car is too close to safely stop for the pedestrian then they don't have to. Otherwise they do. Never just walk on out without looking. Regardless of the law, there is always someone breaking it.
8) White bread is great. Don't confuse sausages with Hot dogs(or Frankfurters as they are properly known). Sausages are far better on bread as the ratio of sausage to bread is superior as they don't have all the other fillings you do on hot dogs. Too much bread on hot dog rolls.
9) EFTPOS is basically the same as debit. It was invented well before debit and is run through a specific network. I believe EFTPOS was actually invented in USA. Instant transfer of funds from your chequing account to the businesses account.
10) Bank transfers are super good. It's an easy free way to pay someone for something. It's what a lot of people use for TradeMe (NZ's own version of eBay). You just give your account number and they send it to you. It's completely secure. No one can hack your account or do anything bad with your account number. They're not used to log in or contact the bank with. It's purely a number associated with that specific account (formatted as 12-1234-1234567-123. Bank-Branch-Account-Suffix).
Electronic Fund Transfer at Point Of Sale predates the Debit card system. New Zealand was one of the first places it was used because Small market, let them work out the kinks in the system before introducing it somewhere where people will sue if the transfer doesn't go perfectly smoothly.
In the days before internet banking We used to just tell people our bank number, and they would go to the bank and deposit cash into your bank account.
So i walk every where with no shoes and most of my family does aswell 🤣🤣. Also our sausages dont even fit in the bread. Its not a hotdog sausages. Lol
As a Maori girl from up north I walk barefooted at times and alot of us in the community do, bcoz in our culture its about reconnecting with papatuanuku(mother earth) and it keeps you grounded to your whenua(land) i lie on the ground sometimes to get extra healing ❤ you should checkout the benefits of being barefooted on TH-cam
I'm from New Zealand nd she ain't lying about the barefeet bruh 🤣😂 she 100% facts on that one hahaha I do it myself it's like actually refreshing re connecting with our land
She’s definitely not lying and I love bake beans on toast lol
Yes cars are normally kind enough to stop at a crossing like it ls a stop sign, even when they see someone still walking to the crossing they will stop and let you go
Whittbread is used because it’s cheaper, sausage sizzles are norofund raisers, costs a cuppybucjs.
Loads of us walk barefoot in public. I walked barefoot through a supermarket just yesterday. Its pretty common place.
Barefoot is acceptable if someone's just being informal, going down to the corner shop or the children are in the park. There's a diamond painted on the road before a crossing, if a pedestrian is at a crossing before the car gets to the diamond the car has to give way. EFTPOS is the system introduced into shops before debit, I haven't had cash on me in months. When this woman started her channel I thought she needed to relax a bit. There's a lot of things here I'm grateful for but it basically boils down to having a happy, balanced life is the goal.
You can tell who's who and you'd know if someone else has bad intentions as actions speak louder than words
As an American in New Zealand. People most definitely go barefoot, grocery stores, malls, restaurants, etc.
This place has amazing food and many have mastery on eating from the forests and even deadly nightshade is eaten here
eftpos: is different to debit. Eftpos is a funds trasfer system from your account to the retailer - it's literally "electronic funds transfer point of sale". The card has no value loaded on it and it cannot be used to purchase items online. It's basically cash in card form.
Bare feet: yes and no. Depends on where you are. parks, the beach, board walks etc, totally barefoot. Shopping centres, not so much. Restaurants and pubs, never.
Fish and chips on the beach: don't know where she's eating but I never get sand on my fish and chips
Baked beans: had baked beans on toast last weekend end lol
White bread and sausages: the sausage is a bit different to what you'd have in a hot dog - it much fatter, more like a bbq sausage. We call it a sausage sizzle.
Hot buttered toast with hot beans is yum! Try it! The roadside stands are because we support local small businesses and farms and orchards.
Min wage in your country I believe is $3 our min wage is $21 that why tipping is not compulsory. We don’t believe the customer should have to pay part of the staffs wages! Boss should be paying not pocketing the money! $3 is disgusting!
I'm a new zealander and I walk all over the place barefoot
Eftpos is definitely a common thing and I'm not sure why we don't just say debit, it could be because its the name of the machines that take the payments but not sure. Bare feet at the shops is definitely a thing and more common in the summer. This is especially true if you're just quickly grabbing one or two things, if its a long day shopping you will more likely put your shoes on. Our streets are fairly clean so it's fine.
Hey our famous kiwi director Peter Jackson (who made the LOTR movies) went to the red carpet in Hollywood barefoot. I'm Kiwi and also love being barefoot no matter what the weather - it feels so much better than shoes!! :)
I live in NZ, I promise you it happens, Where I am from it is 'more' in the smaller towns but if you live beach side then it happens all the time.
I am with you on the Bun for the sausage, we are 'make do' kinda people but I would prefer a bun.
NZ were the first to have Eftpos, it's independent of major credit companies which is debt card, the eftpos machine will do both without skipping a beat.
Do we care that it is easier? Mostly we don't think about it but now that you raised the point, since we do something right we can always improve on something else.
Cars have to stop at pedestrian crossings here in NZ, if you literally get caught going through it from a police officer while someone wants to cross, you can get a huge fine. It’s in the road code, you NEED to stop
Baked beans on toast is too good man😂 especially with cheese and then cooked in the oven MMMH😍
18:16 Yes there is water in the toilet bowl it fills up from the tank, every time you flush
You're talking about a hotdog, she's talking about a sausage sizzle. Sausage sizzle is on bread usually white with tomato sauce and mustard.
On a pedestrian crossing in new zealand there is a diamond painted on the road about 50meters away if I'm crossing before the car passes the diamond I have the right of way.
we literally do. i got in trouble in LA walking into taco bell barefoot, but i didnt know its a no no in USA becuse its common here
we ABSOLUTELY walk around barefoot haha.
Hahahaha! NZ & Australia have the same banking systems, debit/credit here is called Eftpos. We are a small country & the people are very trusting to a point. Most farmers/Gardeners put out fruit/veggie stands with excess food on a honesty box payment system. We love beans ok haha! We are a place where you can sleep with your windows open, car keys left in your car usually no problems. We are a laid back country where being polite and caring about others is high on the list.
not just bare feet but pyjama pants at the store. EFTPOS is not just debit or credit, it also withdraws from cheque accounts, and what you would consider food stamp cards also.
People don't say "Debit" because it is debit in accounting is an asset. But if you use a credit card your owe it to the bank and you add to your liability which is a credit. Eftpos means Electronic Funds Transfer at Point Of Sale". It hits you bank account instantly and goes to the shops account instantly. If there is insufficient funds the transaction is immediately "declined". No checks (cheques in NZ) any more, they are too slow and inconvenient.
Kiwi drivers know to slow down at pedestrian crossings.
It's not always windy at the beach, fish and chips, family, kids. Bliss!
White bread is normally moist and easy to fold
I haven't seen a cheque for years, bank transfer so easy!
Twano come and have a Mango in NZ
Keen to see part 2 always rockin with yo content
As a new Zealander barefoot is a thing you will actually see in it more common in the smaller towns
When driving in new Zealand it is always important to check for pedestrians at crossings because they have the right of way, Pretty much you have to stop and let them cross
Bro it's good if your looking for a laid back life style, Cost of living is crazy down here utilities too, if you've got your $$$ right you'll be sweet, Also Australia's pretty close 3 hour flight from N.Z direct if you need a little more pace in your step the ozzies are allgood.
Baked beans on toast is a stable breakfast and ppl do walk around here with no shoes on. I done it for over 20 yrs unless it's a work thing but when not working it's no shoes.
walking barefoot is common here in new zealand. i’ve done it before only because i forgot my flip flops and didn’t give a fck 😂
Food is aplenty you just gotta get it yourselves, but only take what you can eat so everyone can eat too
At the crossings there are big neon orange poles on both sides of the road and you are ment to stop or slow down because they are there for the kids walking home
EFTPOS is the name of the machine. It takes debit and credit cards. It’s not just an NZ thing it’s also the case in Australia and New Zealand.
What’s messed up is that the USA can’t transfer funds without a secondary app 😂
Alright so we eat hotdogs in hot dog buns, hot dogs are not the same as sausages.. sausages, white bread, tomato sauce and onions is like a staple food that they sell everywhere to raise money. It is the law to stop at pedestrian crossings if you see someone... if you dont you will get a fine if a police officer sees you and yes i am always always barefoot... going for a walk? barefoot, running into the supermarket or dairy? barefoot. It is just so much easier
In nz walking barefoot is kind of common to us either it’s just quickly to the shop in and out or either it’s just people who have no shame 😂
