If there's one thing New Zealanders do well, it's shutting down and taking a break over Christmas and New Year's. Each of those dates has two public holidays associated with it, and those public holidays are 'Mondayised' (applied to the following workday if they happen to fall on a weekend) so almost everyone with an … Continue reading A week on holiday in Mangawhai
