Souvenires from New Zealand

Arturo21 · 13-05-2005

My dad just left for New Zealand this morning, without me (

). Anyway, he's going to Auckland for a week for a conference, and he asked me what he could bring me back..I don't know..

So, my question to you is, what is something I can ask for that is something that is good to buy in New Zealand (Non fashion related, or fashion related, either way)

Thx

All I can think of is some book with photographs of New Zealand's nature, which is supposed to be stunning (well, we've all seen Lord of the Rings

).

Pau shell.

hmm ... like Faust and The Prince said, photos and paua shells are great souvenires maybe even a toy kiwi or mud masks from Rotorua ....let your Dad know Auckland city has a couple souvenire shops he could check out

Ask him to bottle a whif of the smell from the geisers in Rotorua

More seriously, I agree with what has been said above

and maybe a wooden knife thingy as an ornament.

ohh or maybe you could ask him to get a Maori bone carving necklace... the necklaces are very special and having lots of meaning to the Maori people. They are said to bring good luck

Great suggestions. I'm also thinking of leather/sheep wool

Paua shell is truly beautiful as well.

Thx
