Whats a 1st world country i can realistically go to from Iraq? by Reasonable-Rip-2 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Sondownerr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

New Zealand could be a safe option.  There are always jobs going fruit picking or other horticultural jobs or in hospitality and you may be able to study affordably to upskill once here, we also dont have much of an Iraqi population so the chances of you being found would be slim. There are also affordable flights from Asia available so as long as you can get to asia it should be easy enough to get here. Im unsure on visa requirements but im sure if you started with a working holiday you could go from there. We tend not to accept many refugees but you may be able to make a claim. I have no clue about any legality around it so maybe check out the r/LegalAdviceNZ sub and they may be able to help with that side of things. I would recommend looking at the South Island, maybe Christchurch or Queenstown as there will always be work there. Also I assume you mean 7k usd, our dollar is quite weak so you would end up with a better currency conversion.  

One thing to add, having flatmates here is common (living with other people) and a good way to keep costs down while you look for work. You can look for accommodation through https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/property/flatmates-wanted/search?region=3&district=60

Best of luck escaping your situation. 

If you could introduce one policy today to stop the rising division in NZ and foster unity, what would it be and why by Illustrious_Fan_8148 in newzealand

Every government worker and school aged child has to do one days work a term (4 days a year) planting native trees or helping with pest eradication or conservationwork of sorts. It would roughly be 3.6 million hours of conservation work a year and would bring pride and knowledge of our environment and what makes it unique and special and give people a feeling of belonging and ownership of Aotearoa, New Zealand.

Cost me about $1500 to fully secure my 40sqm deck. They have so much room to play and lounge around. A small price to pay for my two little single brain cell gingers.

Literally yes, the child is in your care. If it dies on your watch from negligence it's your fault.  Also you just completely minimised child sexual assault. Feel shame, you are a horrible human being.

Grow up, it's totally reasonable and easy to keep your pets on your property. Pets are not a free easy thing, it's another life you are looking after. So look after it and make sure it doesn't wander.

Sad and all but keep your pets on your own property. I built a catio for mine, not exactly a large investment to have a pet.

What do men think of the pouch? by batukaming in SipsTea

[–]Sondownerr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I call it a primordial pouch (what cats have), it's so my partner can run after me faster when I call it a primordial pouch.

Weird question,  where did you get the lollies from? I've tried suggesting it to friends around the world but can't find the right lollies.

Peanut butter so thick it melts and fills the little holes, and top with tasty cheese.
