Beautiful, isolated and expensive: US expats on life in New Zealand
Californian Larry Keim has learned a thing or two in his 20 years living in New Zealand: good dill pickles are hard to come by, understanding kiwi slang will get you far, and if you think you're going to get rich, forget it, 'that ain't gonna happen'. 'But [New Zealand] is rich in so many other things that, at the end of the day, matter more.' For Americans looking to escape political division in the US or simply wishing for a slower pace of life, New Zealand is often considered an enticing alternative. Political crises and administration changes in the US regularly ignite waves of American interest in New Zealand – visits to immigration websites skyrocket, property searches soar and online forums fill up with urgent questions about what life is like in the island nation. Billionaires have also looked to use New Zealand as a 'bolthole' far away from the threat of societal turmoil. Most recently, the relaxing of rules for New Zealand's so-called 'golden visas' to attract wealthy investors has seen a surge in applications from the US, including plenty – according to immigration consultants – driven by a desire to escape president Donald Trump's administration. So what advice would recent US migrants offer to their compatriots? Some themes emerged: relish the free healthcare, embrace the work culture and natural beauty but brace for high living costs and feelings of isolation. Sarah Parlow did not arrive on a 'golden visa' but deliberately moved to New Zealand a week before Trump's inauguration in January. 'When I saw the Republican party captured the House, the Senate and the presidency on election night, I just knew it would be disastrous for women's rights, LGBT rights, and the American people in general,' Parlow says. 'I just really wanted to be somewhere else for a while.' The Auckland-based nurse and life coach says it has been an easy landing. 'It's been a place where I feel I can recalibrate'. Stats NZ estimates 1,388 Americans migrated to New Zealand in the three months to the end of February, a jump of 1,127 on the same period a year earlier – 537 arrived in February alone, which is believed to be one of the highest monthly totals from the US on record. However, Amy Armstrong, who moved to New Zealand with her husband, Miles Nolte, and son Beck in 2022, has a warning. 'You should feel pulled to be here,' she said, 'not just pushed to get away from [the US].' 'I think it's really easy coming from a place of feeling desperate in the United States right now, to assume that if you can get to New Zealand, it's this golden parachute,' Nolte says, cautioning that not everything in New Zealand comes easy. The couple arrived in New Zealand after Armstrong was awarded an Edmund Hillary Fellowship and they have just gained residency. Their move was partly motivated by the US's political climate but mostly driven by a thirst for adventure and love of the outdoors. In this respect, the country has been generous – the wild spaces are beautiful and accessible and there is a real sense of 'community-mindedness', Armstrong says. But there have been shocks. The housing can be cold and getting a job is often about who you know, as much as what you know. 'The reality is, most people get jobs [here] based on knowing somebody,' says Nolte – an experienced writer, producer, hunter and fisher. 'I have been a little shocked at how cloistered the market … and the connections have been.' For Wellington-based video editor Sam, who wished to use only his first name, the workplace culture was a surprising discovery – one he relishes for the lengthy holiday periods and better work-life balance but which also required steep learning curves. 'In New Zealand, the relationships come first … if you're in a position of leadership, you have to develop that relationship or it won't work out,' says Sam. Sam and his wife moved to New Zealand in 2016 after falling in love with its natural beauty three years earlier. He is particularly struck by how access to free healthcare 'gives you more freedom and latitude to try new things'. 'That made me realise, as an American, how much of your life and the decisions you make are tied to your ability to get healthcare,' Sam said. Some Americans warned would-be migrants that the cost of living is high in New Zealand compared with the US, and said they had sometimes struggled to form friendships with locals. Meanwhile, the distance between New Zealand and the US can lead to loneliness. 'Sometimes it can feel very isolating [if] you're just here on your own and your family's 3,000 miles away,' says Monique, who wished to give only her first name, and who moved to New Zealand in 2006. Yet, not one regretted their choice to move, nor had any pressing desire to return to the US. 'I have a life here that I wouldn't be able to have in California – I can afford to keep myself healthy [and] don't have to pay for my prescriptions,' says Debbie, a retiree who has called New Zealand home since 2005. 'New Zealand is a beautiful country and I am proud to be part of it.'

Cameras reveal more kiwi than possum on Taranaki range
Kiwi on trail cam at Kaitake. Photo: Supplied / Department of Conservation Dozens of cameras installed on the Kaitake Range in Taranaki are revealing the success stemming from five years of intensive predator control. The western-most of three mountain ranges in Te Papa-Kura-o-Taranaki, Kaitake is the focus for a joint predator control programme involving the Department of Conservation, Taranaki Maunga Project, iwi, and other community collaborators. DOC biodiversity ranger Brandon Kingi said a comparison of images captured by the trail cameras dotted across the Kaitake showed a dramatic decrease in predators such as possums, stoats and feral cats - and a notable increase in protected native species like kiwi, which had been successfully reintroduced to the area. "We've seen a big fall in the number of feral cats caught on our cameras, which shows the 1080 operation has effectively controlled them," said Kingi. "Immediately after the operation in November last year, the number of cats detected dropped almost overnight - from about 95 percent of the cameras showing feral cats, to about 1 percent. "There was a similar result for stoats - they were seen on our cameras before the operation, then they had almost vanished when we checked the cameras afterwards." The predator control methods used at Kaitake also included bait stations and leg-hold possum traps. Kingi said keeping predator numbers down required hard physical labour, carried out by staff from DOC and Taranaki Maunga Project, as well as volunteers and paid staff from iwi and community groups. "The community collaborators contributing to Kaitake working to protect biodiversity on the maunga have also helped control rats and mustelids." Kingi said the measured reduction of predators at Kaitake demonstrated how a trapping network extended the benefits from aerial operations by reducing predator reinvasion. There were also anecdotal observations of more birdlife across the range and a healthier forest. Taranaki Maunga Project pou whakahaere taurua/co-project director, Sean Zieltjes, said the camera data was another tangible measure that the hard work by kaimahi and volunteers removing predators and reintroducing kiwi was paying off. "We're really stoked, mate there. Our latest round of camera data from Kaitake is showing more images of kiwi than possums up there at the moment. We're really psyched with this and some ways we can't believe it. But it certainly gives us a shot in the arm and a steer that we're on the on the right track up there, that's for sure." Zieltjes said it showed the power of community involvement to really make a difference in driving biodiversity improvements. Kaitake didn't have a particular focus for Taranaki Mounga Project when it started nearly a decade ago, but community support for it changed that. "Relationships fostered with Ngā Mahanga a Tāiri, the Kaitake Conservation Ranges Trust, schools, landowners, and other groups and agencies, have snowballed into achieving much more than we could ever have done working separately." Zieltjes said invasive species were putting immense pressure on New Zealand's ecosystems and at 4000 Aotearoa had one of the highest rates of threatened species in the world. "Once our unique native species are gone, they are gone for good. The results at Kaitake demonstrate a small but important success in protecting native species." Organisations contributing to predator control and species protection at Kaitake include Ngā Mahanga a Tāiri hapū, Kaitake Conservation Ranges Trust, environmental educators Te Ara Taio, and numerous schools. Taranaki Kiwi Trust, Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari, Ngāti Koroki Kahukura, and Save the Kiwi had all contributed to the return of kiwi to the maunga.

4 Health Benefits of Kiwi
Kiwis are a powerhouse of vitamins that can help keep your heart and digestive system healthy. Eating kiwis can also increase the amount of protective plant compounds you consume. Kiwis are small fruits that pack a lot of flavor, as well as vitamins, minerals, and powerful plant compounds. They're sweet, easy to eat, and highly nutritious. Plus, these small fruits offer a few impressive health benefits. This article covers 4 health benefits of kiwi and gives you tips on how to incorporate them into your diet. What is kiwi? Kiwis, also known as kiwifruit, are a type of fruit native to the mountains and hillsides of Southwest China. Kiwis are now grown in many other areas of the world, including New Zealand, which is a top producer of this popular fruit. Kiwis were first brought to New Zealand in 1904 by a schoolteacher named Isabel Fraser, who had traveled through China and brought kiwi seeds back home with her. Once known as Chinese gooseberry, kiwis were given the name 'kiwi' by New Zealand fruit exporters after the flightless kiwi birds, which are endemic to New Zealand. Botanically, kiwis are classified as berries. Actinidia deliciosa and A. chinensis are the two most commonly consumed kiwi species. The most popular type of A. deliciosa kiwi is the Hayward kiwi, a green kiwi named after a man named Hayward Wright, who popularized kiwis in New Zealand in the 1920s. Hayward kiwis are oval in shape and about the size of a large hen's egg. They have fuzzy brown skin, green flesh, and tiny black seeds. Kiwis also come in yellow-fleshed or golden varieties (A. chinensis). The difference between green-fleshed and yellow-fleshed kiwis is that green kiwis contain a green pigment called chlorophyll, while yellow kiwis do not. It should be noted that kiwis are not the same species as kiwi berries. Even though they belong to the same plant family, Actinidia, kiwi berries are small and have edible, grape-like skin. Kiwis are larger and have thicker, fuzzy skin. The skin of most varieties of kiwi should be peeled off before you eat them. However, some people like to eat the skin of golden or yellow kiwi varieties because the skin is softer than the skin of green kiwis. Kiwi nutrition Kiwis have an impressive nutrient profile. Here is the nutrition breakdown for a 3.5 ounce (100-gram) serving of the flesh of a raw, green kiwi: Calories: 64 Carbs: 14 grams Fiber: 3 grams Fat: 0.44 grams Protein: 1 gram Vitamin C: 83% of the Daily Value (DV) Vitamin E: 9% of the DV Vitamin K: 34% of the DV Folate: 7% of the DV Copper: 15% of the DV Potassium: 4% of the DV Magnesium: 4% of the DV Kiwis are exceptionally high in vitamin C, with a 3.5-ounce (100-gram) kiwi providing over 80% of the average daily vitamin C needs. Vitamin C functions as a powerful antioxidant in the body, protecting cells against oxidative damage. It's also involved in immune function, and your body needs it to make collagen and neurotransmitters. Additionally, kiwis contain potassium, copper, vitamin K, folate, and vitamin E, a fat-soluble nutrient with antioxidant effects that plays an important role in immune health. Kiwis are low in calories, protein, and fat, and they're a good source of fiber. Kiwi benefits According to research findings, kiwis may benefit health in the following ways. 1. Excellent source of beneficial plant compounds In addition to containing the antioxidant nutrients vitamin C and vitamin E, kiwis are an excellent source of plant compounds that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in the body. For example, kiwis contain carotenoids, which have health-promoting properties. These compounds include: lutein zeaxanthin beta carotene Studies show that diets high in carotenoids may help protect against certain health conditions, including heart disease. A review of 69 studies found that higher dietary intake and higher blood concentrations of carotenoids, vitamin C, and vitamin E were associated with a lower risk of heart disease, total cancer, and death from all causes. Kiwis are rich in all these nutrients. Plus, a study that included data on over 17,000 adults found that those whose diets were rich in total carotenoids had a lower risk of depressive symptoms. Kiwis also contain polyphenol compounds, like caffeic acid and chlorogenic acid, which exert anti-inflammatory effects in the gut and throughout the body. Some research suggests that the total antioxidant capacity of kiwis is higher than many popular fruits, including apples, grapefruits, and pears. 2. May benefit heart health Consuming a diet rich in vegetables and fruits like kiwis is a smart way to support heart health. Studies show that eating kiwis, specifically, could help reduce heart disease risk factors, including high blood pressure. A 2022 randomized control trial of 43 healthy participants showed their systolic blood pressure to be significantly lower after they ate 2 kiwifruits a day for 7 weeks. A 2012 study in 102 men who smoked had participants eat three kiwis per day for 8 weeks. Compared with a control group, those who did this had reductions in blood pressure and platelet aggregation, or the clumping together of platelets in the blood. Platelet hyperactivity could increase the risk of heart disease because platelets can stick to blood vessel walls, forming plaques. When this happens, it's a condition known as atherosclerosis. People who smoke are at higher risk of plaque buildup, so eating kiwis may help prevent platelet accumulation and reduce the risk of atherosclerosis in this population. What's more, some studies have shown that eating kiwis may help reduce total cholesterol and triglycerides and boost heart-protective HDL (good) cholesterol. More studies are needed to confirm these benefits. However, a 2019 review of studies found that kiwis may not affect metabolic health in participants with cardiovascular risk factors, including hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, T2DM, and smokers. Additional studies are needed. It's worth noting that adding any fresh or frozen fruit to your diet, not just kiwis, is likely to benefit your heart health. Nonetheless, eating kiwis is a delicious way to care for your heart. 3. Benefits digestive health Kiwis contain both insoluble and soluble fiber. Studies show that kiwis contain about one-third soluble and two-thirds insoluble fiber. The soluble fiber found in kiwis may benefit blood sugar regulation and heart health and help support healthy gut bacteria. In contrast, the insoluble fiber found in the fruit can help keep bowel movements regular. The fiber found in Kiwis can retain water and swell more than other types of fiber, like apple fiber and wheat bran, which means it's a good choice for improving stool consistency and decreasing the time it takes for food to pass through your digestive system. Because of these qualities, kiwis may be a good choice for people who have constipation. In fact, a study in 75 people with chronic constipation found that eating two kiwis per day for 4 weeks helped improve stool consistency and frequency and helped decrease straining during bowel movements. Also, more participants were satisfied with the kiwi treatment compared with consuming psyllium husk or prunes. The kiwi treatment was also associated with the lowest rate of adverse side effects out of the three treatments. 4. Excellent source of vitamin C Kiwis are exceptionally high in vitamin C, a nutrient that helps protect your cells from oxidative damage and plays many other vital roles in the body. Studies show that eating kiwi can help you reach optimal blood levels of vitamin C. A 2012 study in 15 males with low vitamin C levels demonstrated that eating one kiwi per day for 6 weeks was enough to reach 'healthy' vitamin C levels, while eating two kiwis per day resulted in vitamin C saturation or the highest vitamin C levels can reach. Other studies have also found that daily kiwi intake effectively increases vitamin C levels in the body. What's more, a 2022 review suggests that the bioavailability of the vitamin C found in kiwis easily surpasses that in other fruits and effectively increases vitamin C levels in the body, making kiwis an excellent alternative to supplement pills. Maintaining optimal vitamin C levels is critical for immune function. In fact, a 2015 study showed that eating two kiwis per day for 4 weeks increased vitamin C levels and also improved the function of immune cells called neutrophils in young men with low vitamin C levels. Neutrophils are white blood cells that help protect against pathogens and infection. These cells accumulate high concentrations of vitamin C, which is thought to protect these cells and support their functioning. A small 2024 study of 20 adults with severe respiratory infections showed that 2 kiwis a day for 6 weeks replenished vitamin C levels to adequate or saturating in around 80% of the participants. There were also decreases in inflammatory biomarkers and C-reactive protein. Potential risks Eating kiwis regularly is beneficial for health and does not pose any risks for most people. The main exception is for those who have a kiwi allergy. Kiwis contain many potential allergens, including actinidin, which is kiwi's major allergen. Kiwis can cause minor to severe allergic reactions in some people, particularly children. Signs of a kiwi allergy include: itchy throat swollen tongue trouble swallowing wheezing low blood pressure cough or cold vomiting passing out hives How to eat kiwi Many people enjoy eating kiwis raw. You can also incorporate them into a number of recipes, both sweet and savory. Most species of kiwi should be peeled before you eat them. However, some particular varieties, including Zespri SunGold kiwis, can be eaten whole, including the outer peel. You can enjoy kiwis on their own or add them to dishes like fruit salads. Here are a few ways to use them: Mix sliced kiwi with berries and bananas to create a nutrient-dense fruit salad. Use diced kiwi in your favorite salsa recipe. Top smoothie bowls and Greek yogurt with sliced kiwi. Add fresh kiwi to smoothies and protein shakes. Top salads with diced kiwi for a sweet, tart twist. Blend kiwi into homemade salad dressings. Make marinades for meat and fish with blended kiwi, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, garlic, and olive oil. There are many other ways to use kiwi in the kitchen. Try experimenting with kiwi in your favorite sweet and savory recipes. The bottom line Kiwis are a small fruit with a satisfyingly sweet taste and an impressive nutrient profile. Not only are they packed with nutrients, like vitamins C and E, but studies show they may also benefit the health of your heart and digestive system and help you boost your intake of protective plant compounds. Kiwis are also easy to use in the kitchen and you can enjoy them in both sweet and savory recipes.

UFC flyweight Kai Kara-France 'starving' for championship ahead of Pantoja fight
Kai Kara France after defeating Raulian Paiva at UFC 234 at Rod Laver Arena Melbourne in 2019. Photo: Brendon Ratnayake / Kai Kara-France has been sharpening his tools for almost two decades, and now says it is finally time to carve his name into history. The kiwi will fight Brazilian champion Alexandre Pantoja for flyweight gold at UFC 317 on June 29. "It's time to eat and I'm hungry. I'm starving. 15 years I've prepared me for this and it's a different mode I'm feeding off. I've got to attack this and go and take it from the guy." With 13 knockouts in a division that rarely sees them, Kara-France is hunting number 14 - and the belt that comes with it. "I've been a professional 15 years now fighting, 15 years to prepare for this," Kara-France said. The 32-year-old said the name standing across from him was irrelevant. "Every time I step in there, it's me against myself. I don't really look at my opponent in much detail. My coaches and my team do that. I just focus on what I can control, bringing my best mentally, physically, and spiritually. I've figured that out in the fight game. It's usually who can do that is who gets their hand raised." He said he knew he possessed a weapon which could end the fight in an instant. "Something I've got in my back pocket is 13 knockouts in the flyweight division where there's not many knockouts. Pantoja's never been finished in the UFC, never been knocked out. I want to be the first one to do it. I know he's going to bring it to me, but I've got that in my back pocket waiting for him, ready to land that shot." It's been a rough road to a second title shot for Kara-France, who has recently battled the effects of multiple concussions throughout his career, sidelining him for 14 months. "All these things you have to go through to gain experience and knowledge, but it was being honest with yourself, knowing where you truly are at and not thinking you're invincible." He said his journey has simply hardened his resolve. Kai Kara-France at UFC 234 media call at City Kickboxing. Photo: ALAN_LEE "I haven't had an undefeated record, I've built my way up. I've had to fight for it. When you've tasted it, all the wins, the losses, the speed bumps, when you get in there, you're unshakeable because you've tasted it all." Kara-France (25-11-1), is 1-2 in his last three trips to the octagon, however his most recent appearance was an emphatic TKO of Australian contender Steve Erceg in August of last year. His first shot at gold ended abruptly when Brandon Moreno connected with a picture perfect liver kick at UFC 277 in July 2022. "Before that it was probably my best round. I cut him. His face was all bloodied and bruised, but he's a tough guy. He's a fighter and he did well to capitalise on that moment, getting underneath my elbow and took my breath away. But it just showed that I'm right there with the best guys and how close this division is. Anyone could be anyone." The flyweight title fight will co-main event the card, with the lightweight also on the line between Charles Oliveira and Ilia Topuria. "Don't count me out. I've had injuries and had setbacks, I'm still one of the best guys. And the UFC rewarded me with a co-main event on the biggest card of the year." Pantoja (29-5) will be looking for a fourth consecutive defence, having taken the title from Moreno before seeing off challenges from Brandon Royval, Erceg and Kai Asakura. This won't be the first clash between Kara-France and Pantoja, the pair meeting in a two round exhibition bout on The Ultimate Fighter in 2016, the Kiwi on the end of a unanimous decision loss. France winning fight via knock out on the UFC series "The Ultimate Fighter". Photo: Facebook - Kai Kara France "A lot's happened since nine years. He's obviously become a world champion. I've progressed in my career, I've found my feet where I'm knocking guys out and living up to my nickname." Nine years later, the rematch takes place on one of the biggest cards of 2025. "It's a cool storyline. I get to run this back. We have shared the octagon and I felt his power, felt his world-class jujitsu and I did well in that fight to scramble and get back to my feet. Standup was quite equal, but it's all different now. I think I've refined my skillset to know that I can take out most guys." Kara-France said he had nothing but respect for Pantoja. "We have shared cards before and it's nothing personal. He is a family man and I respect that he's been a great champion, but this fight's bigger than me." However, while he may respect him, 'Don't Blink' intends to be ruthless once the cage door closes. "I'm going out there to attack this and just I'm ready for a fight. I know Pantoja is going to be tough and come forward, but I feel like that's what's going to make him vulnerable and it's going to leave openings where I can find that shot. So 13 knockouts on my record, about to be 14." Sign up for Ngā Pitopito Kōrero , a daily newsletter curated by our editors and delivered straight to your inbox every weekday.
