Cultures
Generally, different zones offer distinctly different aspects for interested groups to experience.

Experiences with new cultures widens our understandings of different life styles and teaches us respect for communities different from our own.

Adding the mix of modern Western cultures we can make close contact with the fascinating and vastly distinctive unique Maori culture developed for over a thousand years since arriving from the Pacific Islands. Tribal wars, isolation, different environment and Stone Age technology have shaped this.  

The "Western" New Zealanders have the strongest influence from their war torn ancestors from England, Ireland and Scotland.  Over the last 150 years, these people are displaying their new developing culture within their communities architecture, town planning, religion and education. 

Studies
We see for ourselves the factors (history, environment, technology) that change human cultures. By living with and respecting other cultures we begin to discover the sound reasons for the development of differences. With this knowledge and experience our fear of others simply fades away.

Observing the issues New Zealand is experiencing with blending the Stone Age and modern Computer Age Western cultures leads us to appreciate the difficulties struggles and wars that other world cultures are encountering every day.
