‘I left the cinema, walked home and announced I was moving’: films that made people emigrate | 'Middle-earth does exist'
I was binge-watching the DVDs with my wife, Sarah, when it hit me: Middle-earth does exist, and I don’t need a portal. I can fly there in 23 hours. I turned to Sarah and said, “Shall we move to New Zealand?” One of the many things I love about my wife is that she listens to my madder ideas with a careful seriousness. Six months later we were in Auckland.
This has strong Bilbo Baggins vibes lol.
After all, why shouldn't I? Why shouldn't I move to Middle Earth!?
Interesting, I heard New Zealand is nigh impossible to immigrate to...
I remember the two boys from the Youtube channel BoyBoy(?) speaking on Trash Taste about going to North Korea. They said it was pretty easy and apparently the simplest process they'd had. Maybe Australia is strict with that sort of thing? The only issues they had thereafter was going to the US apparently. US border people were apparently mad that they'd visited Korea for some reason.
I still need to watch their actual video of the trip: We Went To North Korea To Get A Haircut
Yes, please. Everyone currently considering the PacNW should definitely and immediately change said plans to target New Zealand instead as their new home. Please.
