Anyone living/lived/"wouldn't live if you paid me" in Queenstown?
I'm in Auckland, quite bored, single, and a bit disenchanted with the big city I've spent most of my life in.
I've been offered a role in Queenstown. Steady. IT field. The trouble is I'm staring at an annual income dip of half a healthy house deposit (even in Auckland) for the privilege of living in a place I must say, is bloody stunning with plenty to see and do. Not least since my favorite thing in the world is snowboarding.
Finances alone will be a big adjustment. But not insurmountable. But I'm curious if anyone who has made the shift or close to the area has found all the attractions of the place too expensive to enjoy as a local.
Cheers
A
