NZ Visitors Want to Stay Forever
Sunday, 12 September 2010
In a survey by guidebook publishers Lonely Planet, New Zealand was voted the place most voters would "happily live forever".
(via Tourism New Zealand) Tourism New Zealand Chief Executive Kevin Bowler said the win proved that New Zealand would always remain a popular choice.
"People come here for the scenery, but they leave talking about the warmth and hospitality of our people. I think that combination has helped us win this award from our visitors," he said.
New Zealand's win meant that readers and travellers most wanted to put down roots and settle down forever in the country.
More than 3,500 people voted in the Lonely Planet Awards 2010, which were created in conjunction with UK adventure specialist Explore.
