You Wanna Go From Cheesesteaks to Kiwi Land? Buckle Up, It's a Doozy!
Ever felt like cheesesteaks just aren't cutting it anymore and you need a taste of adventure? Considered ditching the Liberty Bell for the Waitomo Caves? Well, if you're dreaming of swapping the hustle and bustle of Philly for the laid-back charm of New Zealand, you might be wondering exactly how far you gotta trek.
Let me tell you, it's not exactly a hop, skip, and a jump.
We're talking about some serious mileage here, folks.
In the language of eagles: You're looking at a mighty 8,856 miles (or 14,253 kilometers) as the crow flies. That's farther than you could throw a boomerang (though, let's be honest, throwing a boomerang in Philly might raise some eyebrows).
In the language of road trips (cause who has a pet crow?): Buckle up, buttercup, because Google Maps isn't gonna be much help here. There are no roads (or bridges!) that can take you all that way across the Pacific Ocean.
So, how are you supposed to get there?
Tip: Be mindful — one idea at a time.
Fear not, intrepid explorer! Here's your chariot to Kiwi Land:
- The trusty airplane: This is your best bet. Flights can take around 22-23 hours, so get ready to catch up on some movies or write the next great American novel (just don't forget the snacks!).
But hey, maybe you're curious about a few other things...

How to speak Kiwi?
"Sweet as" doesn't mean your breath is minty fresh. It means "good" or "great." Just a heads up to avoid any awkward misunderstandings.
Tip: Review key points when done.
How to avoid jet lag?
There's no magic bullet, but try to adjust your sleep schedule gradually before your flight. And maybe avoid that cheesesteak coma right before boarding – you'll thank yourself later.
How to score the best fish and chips?
Tip: Look for small cues in wording.
Ask a local! Kiwis take their fish and chips seriously, so head to a small beach town and follow your nose (and the sound of happy munching).
How to decide between bungee jumping and skydiving?
Why choose? Do both! New Zealand is an adventure capital, so embrace the adrenaline rush!
