We'd be really keen to hear your thoughts on this based on your own travels around New Zealand. Do you think Canterbury is NZ's most welcoming region? And are these our most welcoming towns?
Where in NZ have you been made to feel particularly welcome on your travels?
As usual, please put 'NFP' in your comment if you don't want it to be included in an article. Cheers.

Council possum trapping, Zealandia and people planting flax and kowhai are factors that helped their recovery.
Wellington Bird Rehabilitation Trust spokesperson Craig Shepherd said tūī and kererū numbers had skyrocketed in recent years.
The Johnsonville based trust is getting so many tūī it is struggling to cope. The trust wants to build two new aviaries for recovering tūī and it has set up a Givealittle page.
Wellington arts icon Bill Sheat has given his name and money to a trust to support New Zealand dancers.

… View moreWellington arts icon Bill Sheat has given his name and money to a trust to support New Zealand dancers.
Sheat died in January after a short illness, aged 90. Long-time friend and former Royal New Zealand Ballet dancer Sandra Norman approached him with the idea of a scholarship when he became ill.
In later years he became increasingly outspoken over what he regarded as the “Americanisation” of performing arts in New Zealand.
A proud New Zealander, he favoured Kiwis being in key positions, so they could tell stories that New Zealanders could relate to.
Sheat was well known in Lower Hutt as a partner in a law firm.
Diana Ward-Pickering from Lyall Bay is proud of her nine month old Burmese kittens Minnie and Lilac.
