Like I said before, I had been cheated to Motueka…
Since I had to stay here for quite a long time…
Have to spent some time to discover the beauty of this town~
From the Museum:
Motueka had been a main city in New Zealand before…
Because there were huge agricultures work such as Kiwi, Apple, Mandarin, Grape~
And there was a port over this town…
Mean there were trading and developing in this town during old time~
But now It just a little small town if compared to other cities…
Though small, It have all the things to live on:
-
Super Market
There were Countdown and New World supermarket over here~
The Ware House, a really complete store!
A little Asian Shop provide hometown memories…
There was no worry for buying stuff in this town~ -
Second Hand Shop
For me, second hand shop was the best place for me to “reload”
And there were 4 second hand shop over this town!
-
Fast Food
Lazy to cook? There was a KFC and McDonald provide cheap fast food~
And there was Indian Food, Malaysian Food, Fish and Chips…
All of them were not too expensive…
-
Sunday Market
The price over south island was really higher…
But during Sunday, there was a Sunday Market selling super cheap, super large, super fresh vegetables and fruits~ -
Little Shop
If you can’t wait for Sunday, there were some little shop over the street…
The fruit/vegetable sold in these shops was cheap and fresh!
But the problem was they located far away from each other, and sometimes out of stock~
These were some shops I discovered…
-
Public Service
There was a Library which provide you free internet~
The i-site over here provide free transport and accommodation booking for 2 national park:
Abel Tasman and Kahurangi National Park…Bored? There was a Cinema with 3D too~
-
Some Parks
Since there was a port, there was a beach…
And they develop a really good walkway for the beach~
During free day, I can take a relax walk over the beach
Another Special for this town: Huge Tide Different!
So tide table is important for Abel Tasman Great Walk…
-
Work
The huge area of orchard provide works from Feb to Aug…
Beside there was a Talley’s Factory which provide work in mussel and fish department all over the year…
During Hoki Season (Winter), Talley’s also provide work for WHVer
So there were many WHVer in this little town…
Beside, Many cyclist around here because the road was kinda flat~
Since I don’t have a car, I bought my little bicycle do some “travel” with me~
Hope I can enjoy the time I stay here and discover more beauty of this town~
