Odd questions people from overseas ask about NZ
Hi everyone,
With overseas tourists set to return to NZ shortly, we're looking at doing a light-hearted piece on the odd questions Kiwis have been asked about NZ. You may have seen the post doing the rounds on social media at the moment asking whether English is spoken here and suggesting NZ is a state of Australia (see below). Have you ever been asked anything surprising about NZ? Feel free to message me or comment below. Please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you do not want it or your name included in the article. Thanks very much for your help and happy travels.

Recommendation for a Gardener
Kia Ora,
Looking for someone to clean my small back yard from weeds. Someone that is reliable, trustworthy, honest and hardworking. Also, someone that works alone (no couples or several people please) and charges according to an hourly rate, a reasonable one please.
Many Thanks!
