I was a bit lucky that my company was sending me to New Zealand to meet up the top executives of the banks i managed in the Cebu Center. Since it was a business trip, there's no sweat at all in getting a visa. Of course every thing was handled by our travel agency. I obtained a single entry visa for business purposes (which cost around Php3,000).
Just like every time when i travel overseas, i did my homework. I researched a lot about Auckland and Wellington. Since May is Autumn in New Zealand where the outside temperature could drop to below 10 degrees celcius, i had to bring a couple of warm (woolen) clothes for my week stay there.
