Kiwi Slang – How We Talk in New Zealand

When I meet foreigners abroad I often get asked about the languages of New Zealand. Aside from the painfully cringeworthy “what language do you speak in New Zealand?” and compliments on how well I speak English (!), people often want to know if the way we talk in New Zealand…

    • I'd like to say a big thanks to @davidchan04 for showing me around Cheung Chau and helping me take some awesome pictures! 谢谢你~⠀ I hope you guys enjoyed my brief series on Cheung Chau Island of Hong Kong. If you'd like some more info about how to get here and what to do here, check the link in my bio 😀 ⠀
📍 Cheung Chau, Hong Kong 🇭🇰
    • Sometimes stopping and reflecting is so important. Thinking about where we have been, where we are today, and where we want to be in the future. Personally I have a long journey ahead to get to where I want to be, but bit by bit I'm getting there (that's not to say I haven't been to some amazing places along the way, though!). Either way, stopping to think, reflect and plan is a really important skill. ⠀
Best of luck with your own journey everyone ❤️⠀
📍 Cheung Chau, Hong Kong 🇭🇰
    • Yaaay holiday season is upon us! How are you guys celebrating the festive season this year? 🌲 ⠀
📍 Cheung Chau, Hong Kong 🇭🇰
    • Cheung Chau is a great place for walking. These little cobblestone paths take you to all corners of the island. The cute man-made paths with the breathlessness of the scenery here shows what an awesome mix of culture and nature there is here. 😊⠀
Have you been to Hong Kong? Did you know about Cheung Chau?⠀
📍 Cheung Chau, Hong Kong 🇭🇰
    • It might look like a paradise, but it was actually freezing cold when I visited Cheung Chau in February. I never knew Hong Kong could be so cold, so you can imagine I got a big shock when I arrived there and the temperature was below 10 degrees most days! Moral of the story: go to HK in one of the 10 months it's not cold, or if you're gonna go at this time, bring some warm clothing! 😂 ⠀
📍 Cheung Chau, Hong Kong 🇭🇰
    • I can't believe it's been nearly a year since I was here, and I'm only getting around to showing you guys now! My bad 🙊 ⠀
On the bright side, looking through old pictures and remembering the amazing places I've been does put me in a good mood. 😊 ⠀
📍 Cheung Chau, Hong Kong 🇭🇰
    • Who else loves colourful places? 🙋🏻⠀
It kind of looks like it's from an animated movie, but the colours really are this vibrant in real life! What a special little place 😍⠀
📍 Cheung Chau, Hong Kong 🇭🇰
    • A different side of Hong Kong!...⠀ Over the next few pictures I'm going to be showcasing a side of Hong Kong that a lot of you may not know about...the little island of Cheung Chau! This place was by far my favourite (and the most photogenic) place I went to in Hong Kong, and it was just so different from the rest of the busy island nation.⠀ I've got a whole article up in my bio about all the things to see and do there, but here is just one highlight of the cute town centre: Lock of Love. This picture sums up the feel-good island vibes that Cheung Chau brings!⠀
📍 Cheung Chau, Hong Kong 🇭🇰
    • We have arrived at my last photo of Malaysia! I have to say again that it was a beautiful experience, better than I imagined. If you have the chance to visit yourself, do it. If you need any tips don't forget to check out my blog, I've got everything you need to know! ⠀
 Stay tuned for my next series coming soon on.. Hong Kong!
