YO BROS (and why not sistas), (practising me rugby kiwi slang, see what I did there) Today I shall tell you about the two following days (15th and 16th) which were basically me getting to know my knew home environment. I have travelled alone countless times, explored alone countless times, all good fun. But I’ve always […]
New Zealand
Kiwi talk, snorkelling and Marmite
Gudday me pumpkins! I shall now teach you how to speak Kiwi… Through a picture. Brilliant eh, and I thought most of those were CC’s own little peculiar ways of saying stuff, not nationwide… Anyways, the last entry I wrote concluded our little road trip, and since then CC has started work (working insane hours […]
Big trees, public loos and kiwi chocolate
13. December (Friday the 13th!!) Today we left Kaitaia and made our way down the west coast of Northland (the northernmost region in NZ). Points of interest: the teeny weeny village of Kohukohu (I love Maori place-names!!). Our motel had no wifi since wifi is considered a luxury in this country. I was hoping to find a […]
To the Eery North FEAT. SAND DUNES
12. December 2013 Today we left Russell, unfortunately leaving Hayzybobzykins who would be starting her job there the next day. To clarify things I just drew myself a map of where we went, though it does not really show well online… SOZ. Google map it. (Up the east coast, up to the very tip, […]
Day of Dolphins
11. December Today was the day me, CC and Hayzybobzykins went for the “Swimming with Dolphins”-excursion at the island-complex Bay of Islands, leaving from Russell. Max. 35 people on the boat, three hours. There was a 98% chance of us seeing dolphins, said Billy and Tommy on the boat, but we definitely don’t get […]
First day in NZ: Off to Russell!
10/12/2013 klo 22.27. I am officially very good at conquering jet lags. After flying to New Zealand, I went to bed at half nine/tennish and woke up at half eight in the morning. Amazing sleep. Granted I was quite tired this afternoon and evening, but still, lol to all the scary stories of “how it […]
Dubai 2 Auckland via Oz
9/12/2013 klo 7.17am(9.17pm previous evening English time? Maybe? So confused), BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA. Tbf, all airports look pretty similar. I honestly can’t believe it. 20mins-ish till boarding my final flight. Just over three hours to NZ. This has gone so quick. 9/12/2013 attempt 2, klo 19.26 (not 10.26 as my computer is claiming, still in […]
Off to the other side of the world…
Dear family, friends and fans, For about ten years there has been a country I’ve been obsessed about. Originally the main reason was because it was so far away, but then it evolved into a more general interest in the amazing scenery, the exciting possible adventures and the cool accent. But it was always […]
