One Stop At A Time

Here is the story of how we relocated from Auckland to Christchurch amidst a COVID-19 lockdown. This was quite a long drive which we did over 2 days and the journey also included the "Interislander" ferry ride across the Cook Strait. We also talk about what we had to do in order to be able to travel in and out of Auckland which was under lockdown 😊

Cape Reinga is often mistakenly thought of as being the Northernmost point of New Zealand. However, it is the Northwesternmost point of the country.

Oftentimes, we realise that most people seem to think South Island is all that New Zealand has to offer. We learnt this was not the case on an epic road trip which spanned across almost 2 weeks exploring the North and the Far North regions of New Zealand.

This is just a preview of what's yet to come in a series of 10+ episodes. Stay tuned!
