Hey all
We depart these English shores on Monday to make the big move to NZ and we arrive into Christchurch on March 11th (as visiting friends in the States on the way!)....
What I wondered was if anyone knew of somewhere we could stay just for a couple of nights so that we can but a car before we travel onwards to Kaikoura where we will be based for a few weeks with friends while house hunting?...
A couple of people have mentioned hostels as we don't really want to have to pay out on a hotel but a bit dubious as we will have 4 suitcases with all our stuff that hasn't been shipped so not sure on security at a hostel??... Am I over worrying or does anyone know of any places that do specials for new immigrants?!
Any help much appreciated!
Thank you...
