Dunedin aka: Ōtepoti

Been here just once to see a friend. Not much different from other towns in NZ, houses, small streets etc. The city was quite hilly except the main street George St. And there was one other street (I don’t recall the name, sorry) which was claimed to be the steepest street in the world, unfortunately I didn’t get there.

Maybe I was missing something again, but I found Dunedin a bit of a let-down after the glories of Franz Jozef, Wanaka, and Glenorchy.

A pretty unremarkable town.

I need to go back home to Dunedin by November 2007 for at least a month to catch up with family and friends i havent seen in over a year.

I have been living in Dunedin for 6 months during my school exchange trip in 2003. And I really loved, or still love, the city! Even though it might be a little off the way for most of the people visiting New Zealand and the South Island, this place is really worth a visit! My best memory is watching the sun set from Signall Hill, a viewpoint above the city with a perfect view over the whole city towards the beach and the harbour. Totally recommended =)

I was born in this city in a place that used to be called queen mary.
I suggest that if you visit to goto larnich castle as it is real cool.
