10 DAYS IN // North Island, New Zealand

May 19, 2017

Most of the New Zealand’s population is in the North Island, with about a third of New Zealand’s total population living in Auckland. The North Island has an altogether different feel to it than the South Island. Auckland felt different from the rest of the North Island. Our itinerary was as follows: Wellington, Napier, Taupo, … More 10 DAYS IN // North Island, New Zealand

2 DAYS IN // Wellington, New Zealand

May 12, 2017

Wellington was described to us as ‘a city that thinks it is a village’ by a vendor at the Underground Market. This is apt. Wellington is easily walked, has a nice friendly feeling and a few streets of vibrant nightlife. We went in April and the temperature was around 17 degrees Celsius and cloudy. We … More 2 DAYS IN // Wellington, New Zealand

14 DAYS IN // South Island, New Zealand

2 DAYS IN // Christchurch, New Zealand

May 2, 2017

Like a phoenix that is not quite ready to fly, Christchurch is, currently, not a “must do” on the tourist trail. We spent two nights and one full day there at the end of March 2017 and that seemed plenty. It has been six years since the last large earthquake and there is regeneration happening … More 2 DAYS IN // Christchurch, New Zealand

4 DAYS IN // Queenstown, New Zealand

April 20, 2017

Queenstown is New Zealand’s buzzing adventure capital. This alpine resort town on the South Island is an absolute gem. Queenstown is not only a young town, it attracts a huge number of young backpackers who have a wide choice of activities to choose from to get an adrenalin buzz. Set on the Wakatipu Lake, with … More 4 DAYS IN // Queenstown, New Zealand

4 DAYS IN // Ljubljana, Slovenia

February 21, 2017

I consider Ljubljana to be a well-kept secret. Slovenia is a warm and welcoming country in the centre of Europe, bordered by Austria, Hungary, Croatia and Italy. It is a former winner of the European Green Capital and easy to get around and explore. Not only is there beautiful architecture, Ljubljana hosts many festivals throughout … More 4 DAYS IN // Ljubljana, Slovenia
