New Zealanders' living habits, what should we pay attention to when going there?

New Zealand is an important immigrant country in Oceania, where there are many nationalities and religions, so New Zealand's cultural customs are diverse.

The earliest inhabitants of New Zealand came from Polynesia, and they brought their own culture and language to this land. After a long period of independent development, they formed their own Maori language and culture. /kloc-In the 9th century, British colonists spread their culture here, which had a great influence on local residents, thus making New Zealand residents start to use English and adapt to British culture. However, the local traditional Maori culture has not been abandoned. Whenever we see the New Zealand team in sports events (especially basketball, football and other team competitions), we will find that New Zealand athletes dance before the game, which is the embodiment of New Zealand's local culture.

Today's New Zealanders attach great importance to their high privacy, especially their family life. New Zealand has a beautiful environment, not only because of its unique geographical advantages, but more importantly, the local residents have a high awareness of environmental protection. For example, New Zealanders attach great importance to garbage disposal. Every block has a designated garbage collection day. Every household will wrap the garbage separately according to the date, or put it in a standard trash can, such as paper, glassware, wood, etc., and put it outside the door for collection by a garbage collection company.

New Zealand is a multi-religious country, and every New Zealander is free to choose his own religious belief. However, there is no doubt that New Zealand is a country that mainly believes in God, as can be seen from the name and content of the national anthem.

Most of the local residents in New Zealand are of British descent, so the main cultural customs here are close to those in Britain, and many European living habits are also applicable to New Zealand. The pace of life in New Zealanders is slower, and people's lives are more leisurely. In addition, New Zealand has strict restrictions on alcohol, and restaurants that are allowed to sell alcohol can only sell wine. In a restaurant that sells hard liquor, guests must buy a dinner before they are allowed to drink.
