What is it to be a New Zealander?

It's awesome in all way to be a New Zealander or Kiwi, that's how they call themselves.

Like a daily routine, for kids/teens is pretty much the same as Chile, wake up, go to school and back home, but the real difference in this routine is that school starts at 8:30 and finish at 15:30 and that make the day longer, in a way.

One of the important thing in their life is sports in general, but the most important one is Rugby, of course, all the family join to watch it, If there's a match they watch it, even the ones they have watch, we went to the stadium to watch a Rugby match and the next week they watch the match again, but on TV, of course.

Another thing is that, at least in my home, there is only one TV so it's like a familiar time to watch TV, after dinner they start watching it.

There is one thing that, at least, I find weird, they eat for lunch a little sandwich, some cookies and something to eat, is a very light lunch compared.

I think, with the time that school and jobs finish, especially in school is more like a “live life don't be minimally exceptional” sort of thing, we are not like all day in the school for like a “study or you'll not get a good life”, for example the difference between poor and rich people is very low.
