Ikaw ba ay mahilig manlait ng kapwa?
Wala ka na bang ibang makita kundi kapintasan sa ibang tao?
Mahilig din bang manlait ang mga magulang mo? Ang mga kamag-anak mo?
Laitero - Tawag sa taong mahilig manlait ng ibang tao.
Lait – To mock, ridicule, make fun of, but wait there’s more!

Don’t even try to question my authority because I don’t have any. LOL. I’m just trying to help. Continue reading if you are one or many or all of these things:
- You are new in New Zealand.
- You don’t own a car yet.
- You still need to learn how to drive.
- Your friends and family who drive and have cars are too busy to drive you around or you just don’t want to bother anybody.
- You need to go to a specific place or you just want to go out and explore.
If you are one or many or all of these things then you got no choice but to learn how to ride a bus.
Nervous? For sure, but don’t worry. The things that I’ll teach you might somehow help you gain confidence in riding your first NZ bus. (Hopefully)
