At one point, driving across country with my lovely wife, I pointed out a particularly nice vista. She said "Sorry, can't look. I just can't take it any more."

In a way the best part was how mountainous the country is - driving along the coastal "highways" was constantly wondering what interesting vista would show up beyond the next coastal hills I passed. Also I lost all fear of driving on extremely narrow roads with no guard rails and 30-50 metre dropoffs after 3000 km there.

It helped that NZ drivers were collectively by far the most polite I've encountered. Portuguese drivers are very *attentive*, and I have no fear of being run down in one of the many uncontrolled crosswalks - but they also love to lay on the horn and yell at each other.
