And I'm sure it's even more pronounced outside of major metropolitan areas. I spent a week in Tasmania when I first got here and couldn't believe how friendly everyone was.<br /><br />Amanda - I hope to visit NZ as well, so I'm glad to know my new favorite motto applies there, too! :-) I think I'll probably be safe on taking it too far, since most of my classes now are a maximum of three people. Definitely no skipping out on those, "no worries" or not!Jessalyn Pinneohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00188095327138128369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287384554620779198.post-55618021080697622322011-03-08T08:42:35.163+11:002011-03-08T08:42:35.163+11:00The "no worries" attitude pervades the S...The "no worries" attitude pervades the South Pacific. It's the same way in New Zealand - everyone is so laid-back and friendly that it's impossible to avoid having it rub off on you.<br /><br />Just beware that the "no worries" attitude will probably follow you home! When I returned from studying abroad in NZ, I found myself skipping more classes in that last quarter than I did in all the rest of college... haha. But, no worries, right??Amandahttp://www.dangerous-business.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287384554620779198.post-66055128712778310702011-03-07T08:08:36.797+11:002011-03-07T08:08:36.797+11:00Yup, Aussies are a great bunch - glad to hear you ...Yup, Aussies are a great bunch - glad to hear you are enjoying yourself! I'm a citizen now (originally from US), but I remember when I first arrived a workmate said, "You're here, you're one of us." It felt very welcoming. As an expat I have felt the divide before, but travellers are always welcome wherever they go in Oz. I recommend getting out into some of the regional areas and country towns if you want to meet some even friendlier people.Andreahttp://inspiringtravellers.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287384554620779198.post-20469008496247801412011-03-05T12:04:14.127+11:002011-03-05T12:04:14.127+11:00Thanks Dave!
