Blogger Prompt T3 Wk4

Questions:

Q1. Where were you born and how long have you lived in NZ?
I was born Christchurch and have lived here for almost 5 years; I lived in Christchurch for the first 2 years of my life, moved away then moved back almost 3 years ago.

Q2. What languages can you speak? or what language would you like to learn and why?
I only speak English and some Maori. I would like to learn fluent Maori because I believe Maori is a big part of New Zealand's history and future and not enough people know it; Maori or not.

Q3. What are the best and worst things about living in NZ?
The best part about living in New Zealand is that it's small enough to travel in a short period of time.
The worst part is how cold it can get, how small it is and how boring the scenery can be; I am from Central Otago and I have family down there and every time we go down the scenery gets more boring every time.

Q4. How many cultures/nationalities are there in your class or school? What are they?

Q5. What is something that you have learned about a different culture?

Q6. What would you put in a time capsule to celebrate NZ culture?
I think a pair of Jonah Lomu's rugby boots or his rugby jersey should be in a time capsule as he was an amazing rugby player and a New Zealand icon.

Q7. If you could make another NZ public holiday, what would it be and why? Eg Matariki, Diwali, Chinese New Years or something else.
I think a day after the 2 daylight savings in a year needs to be a public holiday so we can adjust to the time difference.

Q8. What does being a New Zealander or Kiwi mean to you? How does it make you feel?
I believe being a New Zealander/Kiwi means that we take pride in our country and are accepting to all races, genders and peoples sexuality.
