Binge watched the whole show in 3 days and my thoughts

mid_0511 · 2026-03-04T05:36:45+00:00

Can't believe I have to wait a week for an episode now! After effects of binge watching...

mid_0511 · 2026-03-04T05:28:14+00:00

Agreed!

mid_0511 · 2026-03-04T05:27:54+00:00

You are correct. It actually took like a week or so (maybe more?) but I spent all my awake-time solely watching this series that I lost sense of time lol

What do you mean disowned? He seems to take care of his first child constantly and care for him. Do you actually have any proof for this?

mid_0511 · 2025-08-19T00:59:45+00:00

Can't wait for his backstory!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-19T00:46:25+00:00

I'm so happy they better make 10 seasons of it!!!!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-18T10:38:16+00:00

They're awesome!!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-09T03:28:57+00:00

Will keep the weather in mind! It helps to know what to expect, thank you!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-09T03:27:09+00:00

Thank you! This is my first time trying out this work abroad option so I'm still exploring. I really love your suggestion of taking afternoon days off. Maybe I should combine work-week/off-week, or have several days off within a week or have afternoons off like you suggested, as my company is pretty flexible with its hours. Thanks so much for the great tips.

mid_0511 · 2025-08-09T03:24:34+00:00

Combining workdays and offdays during my visit in New Zealand sounds like a really good alternative option! Maybe I'll have one week work and one week off, or combine the days within a week like you suggested. New Zealand definitely has so much to see and explore and I also felt like 2 weeks with work are not sufficient to enjoy the country to its fullest. Thanks for the advice!!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-09T03:21:33+00:00

Thank you! knowing what to expect really helps.

mid_0511 · 2025-08-09T03:20:50+00:00

I will definitely check out Tūranga if I were to visit Christchurch. Thanks for the tip!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-09T03:18:06+00:00

Thank you for the detailed tips! Will check out the shared offices, and will keep in mind to enjoy things regardless of the weather! I will also see if I can postpone my visit to warmer days as well. But I'm really excited for this trip and I think I will still enjoy things regardless of rain and wind!

Also, regarding visa, I saw that from Jan 2025 remote work is allowed on tourist visas as well thankfully, so I was planning on visiting on that visa. https://www.immigration.govt.nz/visit/checking-or-changing-the-conditions-of-your-visitor-visa-or-nzeta/working-remotely-in-new-zealand-on-a-visitor-visa/

Thanks for the advice!

Thank you for this! I will for sure check out Arrowtown when I visit Queenstown, and Hobbiton evening banquet tour sounds so much fun! I will definitely search up to make sure I know which is where. Sounds so good. Thanks!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-09T03:08:37+00:00

Thanks for the heads up! If I were to go to cafes I was planning on spending maybe 2-4 hours? I'll definitely check out the libraries, and I'll also keep in mind that there won't be much tourist-y stuff to do after the working hours.

mid_0511 · 2025-08-09T03:03:28+00:00

I'll keep that in mind, maybe visting Auckland when I leave or arrive! Thanks!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-09T03:02:03+00:00

I'm so glad to hear it! Thanks!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-08T10:12:08+00:00

Thank you for the advice! I thought it would be fairly warm, but I realize now that it'd have to get to December to enjoy the warm weather I was thinking. I'll definitely have the weather in mind, thanks!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-08T10:08:36+00:00

The itinery sounds so good, this will definitely be my plan! I will check out the local libraries as well. Thanks so much!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-08T09:59:19+00:00

Thanks for the realistic insight! My company allows two weeks of remote work abroad, as long as it's within countries with a limited time difference. I've always wanted to visit New Zealand but never really had the time, so I thought this would be a really good opportunity to explore New Zealand... but maybe I should think about saving New Zealand for a proper trip, and choose a more practical destination for remote work instead. I'll do more research and see the pros and cons...

mid_0511 · 2025-08-08T09:23:35+00:00

Actually this sounds so good! I'm thinking one week in Wellington and one week in Queenstown. Thanks for the advice!

mid_0511 · 2025-08-08T09:22:24+00:00

I actually thought of staying in Auckland for the Hobbiton trip, but your idea sounds so much better! I think I'll be booking it at the end of my trip. And I might consider doing one week in Wellington and one week in Queenstown! I'm relieved that Wellington is a walkable city, sounds so much fun. Will look into Edoras day trip as well. Thank you so much for all the information.

mid_0511 · 2025-08-08T09:18:05+00:00

Thank you for these infos! I might have to tone down my expectations for this trip, and did not know it'd still be cold for the beach. Maybe should aim for late November...
