My daughter has a 12-month visa to live in France.  She is a New Zealand citizen.  What is the best rail pass I can buy her as a birthday gift to explore more of France?  When I try to buy an Inter-rail pass for France, her country of residence (France) is not listed. 

The Interrail web site seems to  be designed for travellers intending to travel to the country from another European country but NOT if you live there.  I cant find the answer anywhere.   Am I missing something?

Your daughter should use her New Zealand passport and get Eurail passes (global or country-specific).
