🎉 Q&A: in my next video I’m doing a Q&A so drop any questions about NZ/travelling etc down below! ❤
Most food for sale at NZ supermarkets is made in NZ or Australia. No excuses about our distance from other countries. Supermarkets,banks and fuel companies always have healthy profits
The same everywhere, profiteering is especially bad in the uk at the moment.
Shipping from Australia to NZ is not cheap
Loved this video sm, thank you for being so transparent. I’m in the process of adjusting my budget atm and it was SO NICE to hear your genuine takes/feelings/comparisons to UK etc. Thank u !!
Great video. Thank you Kat! Wish you all the best.
It wasn’t this expensive in NZ, I used to be able to buy a huge bag of fruit and veg for $20 for 2 people and it lasted all week. Those days are gone, supermarkets are now robbing us.
I searched a lot on TH-cam for this topic and your video is precise to the point and most honest one. This will certainly help many people who want to come to new zealand. Thanks for sharing this video and lots of best wishes for your TH-cam career.
What a lovely comment 💕 thank you so much for your kind words, I’m glad my video was helpful to you! X
Quite useful video indeed. This is gonna helping me a lot on making plans to go to nz.
New subscriber from South Africa and just came across your channel.I just say that I thoroughly enjoy your insights around the living expenses in NZ 🙌🙌🙌👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Ahh thanks so much! Welcome to the crew 🥳❤️
In the UK you can get food out of season very cheap ,in NZ you need to buy by the season ,in NZ WE HAVE JUST HAD THE WORST WETTEST WINTER ,so fresh food is very expensive as a lot of produce was ruined by the rain ,floods and the wind ,also as the people that normaly do the harvesting are only now being allowed in to N Z , post COVID, , plus you have the two supermarket chains making record profits . You live in Auckland a very expensive place to buy fresh produce . A very good post by you.
I am planning to come there for studies I am yet to decide whether I should go for university of Auckland or Auckland University... In either case what will be a good place to look accommodation for as in don't need at the heart of city it will cost a fortune... But distance enough that there regular buses are there...
Or should go like take a distant place but then but a car which one would you say n what place to look for a accommodation
Love this video, and so proud of you!
❤️❤️❤️🥳 love YOU!
Really nice presentation and so open and truthful!
Thank you kindly!

A must…shopping for fruit and vegetables should be done in season.You will be paying more out of season.If you tend to stay….grow your own produce as well
I was planning to apply for new zealand work and holiday project.That video gave me lots of information about costs.Thanks a lot for the video :)
You definitely should! Good luck & thanks for watching 🙌
Thank you so much Kat, congrats on your Monetisation and happy travels
Thank YOU so much 😊
Thank you very much for this video! It is very useful. 🙏
Thanks for watching!
Super useful video! Thanks Kat
You’re so welcome, glad it was helpful 💕
Thanks for sharing!😊
If your total internet bill is $80 per month, that's actually about what it should be for a consistently cheap plan. While it might seem like there are cheaper options, they're usually a result of some kind of bundle (such as with electricity) that just shifts the cost elsewhere, or it might be like $70 for the first six months and then some fine print that says it's $90 per month after that on a minimum 1 year contract.
Thank for sharing love your energy
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your interesting video 😊
Thank,very helpful.
This is the best video now I know a lot About New Zealand!
Thanks so much for the feedback!
Great video. So informative and well done on your budgeting skills. I am very impressed. Whats the plan after NZ? ❤
Thanks Jane! Haha I am a top budgeter 😅 you’ll have to watch my next video to find out… 😉😅🥰
Nice video love the sarcasm and funny humor 😂
Haha thanks, much appreciated!
Hi Kat, you made a very nice video with detailed expenditure on a monthly basis. Would you make a video on the earnings of an international part time student employee in NZ too. Your perception and view of the expense is quite good and easy to manage.
Hi, new subscriber here. I have a running application there in new zealand, i want to experience to work and live there, your video is very helpful to me. Now i have an idea about the cost f living there. Waiting for more videos. Thank you😊
Im moving to NZ in about 4 weeks on a holiday working visa and this information really helped! Thanks Kat!
I’m so glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for watching 😊
Hello ,please how did you get your holiday working visa
Are you there man.. How much is it costing you?
@@CreativeReaper90s it depends really. I’ve spend a week traveling through the north island on a hop on hop off bus (Kiwi experience, highly recommand) and I’ve spend around ~1100 euro all together.
Don't move this country is full grap... only good if u ur 60s and wanna relax.. other than u just become tax slave...sun is extremely harmful for skin..its really boring place on earth
What you said is so astonished me as a resident who live un countryside of nz
I'm planning to move to NZ in next year with my partner who's Kiwi in Christchurch, Thank you so much for information :)
You are so totally welcome! Thanks for watching 😊
so grateful for how transparent you were in this! one thing I’m wondering, did you find it easy to take short trips to South Island from Auckland?
Ahh thanks for the feedback! And yes, it was super easy to do short trips to the South Island - it’s just not that cheap x
Hi loved your video
Awesome video. Kiwi dad here. We spend $8000 per month. lol.
you are presented good video 🙂👍
Hi! I'm a new subscriber, Kat Turner... watching from Jubail, K. Saudi Arabia

🎉 thanks 😊
$30/month isn't bad for 2k subs on youtube! good job
Thanks for this video. My name is Osezua, I am watching this from Lagos Nigeria.
Wow, thanks for watching!!
So interesting to know. Thanks for sharing. Surely there are differences in NZ and US living.
Thanks for watching 🙌 yes, lots of differences for sure!
love the vids from an expat from yorkshire x stephen
Ahh thanks for commenting Stephen, it’s so lovely to know people enjoy my videos or find them helpful! 🎉
Hi, enjoyed the vid, very helpful! Can I ask - was your flat furnished? Thanks :)
Thanks! Yes, it was furnished x
You’re officially a TH-camr! 🎉
Yes I am!
I'm from 🇲🇦thank you for sharing your videos i hope one day i can move to 🇳🇿 to experience peaceful life
I hope so too!
Hi, thank you so much for that much information. My question is: do you guys live together in one apartment?
This was literally so informative and helpful - thank you!! Can I ask what travel/medical insurance you went for? I'm going to be moving to NZ on a WHV for 2/3 years and feel like travel insurance is usually aimed at short-trips or backpacker style and isn't really appropriate. Any advice on what you did would be super helpful :)
Hi Becky, unfortunately I can’t help as I had tru traveller backpacking insurance that we extended when we got to NZ. Thanks for watching and hope you have a fab time in NZ!
Don't move nz it's bullshit Australia is 80% better
Nice video. Can you do a companion with living expenses in NZ and Australia??
I definitely will do once I’ve spent some time in Aus!
Nice video
Great induction about the living cost in New Zealand. Beautiful and thanks
Glad you enjoyed it x
Hey Kat! I loved your video! Could you please provide an insight into how safe is New Zealand for non-Britishers ?
I'm Kiwi not good anymore,unless ya White even the brown people who have been here 100s of year's aren't liked,guess ,its a global thing, All First nations people are shat apon,
Lol pretty safe place
@@richlee509 thanks !
$33 an hour is high for receptionist, normally it’d be minimum wage plus a few dollars
Hi cat,
Can you please make one video on PhD in New Zealand as a international student and PhD dependent work permit...?
Is it adviceable to come to new Zealand as a student considering the high rate of cost of living
Incoming Canadian perspective from someone who lived there a year in 2015-2016. Your experience will definitely vary depending on which country you are coming from!
I can only speak for Canadians and to a degree maybe Americans as well but I found NZ very expensive. Some stuff was more some stuff was less but overall quite a bit more pricey. I don't even earn the top rate for my profession in Canada and when I worked in NZ in the same profession I earned $50,000NZD less than what I would have earned in Canada that year. A HUGE drop in pay plus stuff being more expensive brought my overall quality of life way down.
NZ's beauty and weather too me are unmatched and the people are amazing but make sure you do your research! To me its a wicked place to do your Working Holliday Visa or even Retire but to do your whole adult working life there (coming from Canada) I think it would he a struggle big time. If you're coming with a bunch of money, coming from a lesser quality country or have a very high education job than its definitely a spot to consider.
If I won a ton of money I'd honestly probably move back there in a heartbeat but in my current position its just too expensive.
What part of Canada are you from? I find these prices very comparable to BC (minus the groceries , but everything else is cheaper so I find it evens out)
@@sav479 I'm from and currently live in Nova Scotia but lived for quite a few years in Alberta as well. I was in New Zealand pre-covid inflation but I'm sure they got hit just as hard in recent years.
Honestly some stuff was less some stuff was more but overall it was still way more expensive. Without factoring in that my wage got cut near in half it was still more expensive. Car insurance on a beater was cheaper and phone bills were better in New Zealand.
At the time I went to NZ eating out was more expensive, having a drink at a bar was more, gas was more, bottled drinks from a corner store were more, gym memberships were more, clothing was more, electronics were more, hotels were crazy. At the time the house you could buy in New Zealand for Say 500k would be half the size with half the property you would have in Canada.
Our Canadian currency is also worth 20% more so its easier to take a bunch of your savings there with you than vice versa.
Dont get me wrong NZ is amazing and I'd live their in a heartbeat if I could afford it but for your average person it wouldn't be easy.
@@jared2232 thanks for the info! Been considering getting a working visa in NZ ; so I appreciate it
Yes, standard blog jobs only pay minimum wage, that is why only highly educated people are welcome. We definitely have enough people already in NZ to fill minimum wage jobs.
Your 'share' of this one person flat is 1,040 New Zealand Dollars, that makes roughly 450-500 euro's, and that is only you? So together you pay around a 1,000 euro's, or 1,050 dollars for a small flat? When going to New Zealand you would think more of something in or near nature.
Do you think that I, as someone who will graduate soon, have a chance to live there?
How much NZ$ in total would someone need to make the move to NZ and cover all their bases? (Best guess is fine.)
Hey! V useful video, thank you!! I'm moving to NZ this year and I was just wondering about renting a flat in Auckland - did you find most are 12 month contracts and do you need to have a job before renting? As in the UK they are normally q strict about having a job first. Thanks! x
Hi Zoe - we found that quite a few places were open to a 6 month lease (that’s what we did) and we didn’t need jobs before but only because we were lucky enough to have some savings that we could pay upfront and we had to also give records of our bank accounts. A better option if you can’t do that is flat sharing for sure 👌
I always thought renting in NZ would be insanely pricy but $1000/month is CHEAP compared to Canada right now oml.
Does NZ have farmers markets? I thought NZ has many farms. Maybe it should be cheaper to buy fresh produce from market stalls and direct from farm shops. Also organic is healthier.
Nz has farmers markets Everywhere ✅
Thats the trouble with our little country. Lack of competition to kkeep ANYTHING affordable. Nice country to live in though.
❤❤❤❤❤
That rent is crazy expensive! Wow!
Hi with how many people do you share your flat to only pay 1040$?
It is not always to do a 50/50 split
It should be based on equity not equality if you both vary in income
Thank you for this video! Would you say 110k nzd in annual salary is enough to make a living as a single? I plan to live a modest living, but I worry!
I couldn’t be sure but I would say that sounds about right 😊
She is beautiful i can listen for hours to her ❤
In india 3month 5g internet 180 gb data unlimtid calls domictic or international only 15 nz dollars
1 bhk flat is good for 2 person and it's cost please tell us mam
i've lived here for ten years, i have no idea how your food bill is 480 a month
ps: watch in the camera...and not on the screen....
safe travels
Health insurance?
Ya boy friend getting good deal haha
How dare the cost of living in Auckland be more than Melbourne, Tokyo???
Pls how can i get a caregiver job as a nurse midwife.i we love to work in new Zealand.Also i have a family of 3 kids and husband.
Aue, didn't know you had to pay for water??
Quite frankly, prices sound pretty close to what we're currently paying in South Africa for most things...and at least in NZ you actually get to use the services you're paying for 😅
Wifi I pay 96 a month. For unlimited. The bests way to beat this is .pay 25 a week .witch is a 100 a month. Put you 4 dollars in Gredit every month. I get money taken out every week it's easier
Damm that is actually much cheaper than London
So, it's $2080 NZD a month for a one bedroom in Auckland...ouch.
Hi
hi
Salt is good for you.
Income is NZ dollars or US dollars??!?
NZ dollars
1000 Rent is too high weekly
Gratz on your first TH-cam fee.
Thanks!
The car insurance dosnt sound right sounds like your getting ripped off
Hi kat making good money 6k a month
We are being ripped off in this country
I’m going to school there abroad next year. I’m African American, so I hope the racism aspect is not as heavy or more than America.
There is racism,but you'll find that more on the Sth Island, if you make an effort to meet people, you will be fine,we don't care where you're from,or what skin colour you have,your character will take you further.
Hello Kate, I am from India looking for job opportunity in New Zealand i have experience in Accounts payable domain, could you please refer me and i have applied jobs multiple companys but no response. Please do the needful and Thank you!
Take the hint .We don't need you stay where you are
The joys of living in Auckland!, Please don't judge the rest of the country by auckland prices, you could halve your expenses by getting out of the country's shithole
So boring
So she lives in the most expensive part of Auckland City the most expensive city in New Zealand and she's surprised it's....... expensive????? Um.....ok😂
