Moving to Christchurch from Dublin M24

Hey there, I'm planning to move to NZ in the Spring of next year and I've been eyeing up Christchurch. I'm a little nervous about moving to the otherside of the globe but I thought I'd intoduce myself a bit and if you can provide any advice or recommendations based on my interests I'd really appreciate it!

I'd be on the working holiday visa. I've just graduated with a Masters in Environmental Science and an Undergrad in Geoscience. (Although I'm not entirely sure I want to pursue something in those fields when in in NZ as finding employment for such a short contract may be a struggle)

I love to surf, hike and camp. I ride my bike everywhere in Dublin so that'd ideally be my main mode of transport. I have my drivers license but would prefer to rent one if/when I need it.

I've also recently just got my Crossfit L1 trainer certficate and would like to do some coaching while I'm out there.

If anybody has recommendations for neighbourhoods/tips for finding affordable housing I'd really appreciate that too.
