Hello everyone! I just got approved for a New Zealand working holiday visa and I plan to WWOOF for about 4-6 months. I have never done anything like this before and am looking for any insights from those who have. If you know the answer to some of these questions, please share what you know. Even if you don’t know, any unsolicited advice/best practices would be appreciated

1. Currency - Is the best plan of action to convert a fair sum of cash from USD to NZD before leaving and just have it on hand? I have both a Visa debit and credit card that I was planning on bringing as well, but understand that it is cheaper to pay in local currency.

2. Host outreach - is it better to contact hosts via site chat or email? I have sent two message from WWOOF NZ site and haven’t heard back. I was curious if these were one offs or maybe the site isn’t the best and I should follow up again with an email

3. Meeting other WWOOFERs/travelers - are there existing forums to connect with others or is my best bet is to continue exploring Reddit?

4. Transportation - Should I consider renting a car? I notice that some of the hosts mention being unable to reach the property by public transit, which aside from walking is how I planned to commute. Since I’m anticipating on staying for a few months at minimum, would it be worth looking into car rentals? Can I even do that as a non-resident??
