Rest assured not many New Zealanders can make that claim. Many centuries ago Maori came by canoe to the island to harvest shellfish and mutton birds, traditions still carried out today by local Iwi. They named the island Rakiura - "Land of the Glowing Skies" as it's renowned for its lingering summer sunsets and Aurora Australis or Southern Lights.
