Kiwiness
The quality or fact of being from New Zealand. Also: characteristics regarded as typical of New Zealand or New Zealanders. (Oxford English Dictionary)
Ah, Kiwiness – the enchanting essence that oozes from every nook, crevasse and cranny of New Zealand.
Picture this: you’re hiking through the lush forests, breathing in the crisp air, when suddenly you stumble upon a picturesque waterfall cascading down the rocks. And there it is, that unmistakable Kiwiness, urging you to take a leap into the icy pool below like a fearless adventurer. But only an absolute moron jumps into a pool without knowing how deep it is. Even if you are trying to dodge the sandflies targeting your face, arms, legs and crotch. Maybe the shorty shorts you picked for hiking were not the best choice.
