Welcome! This blog is for all of you, so you can share our incredibly exciting journey in New Zealand with us; all of the stories, the amazing views and hopefully also feel a bit closer and not 11,000 miles away. We head out on the 17th of February on a Working Holiday which will start in Auckland. After that, we will adhere to the old and wise saying from an old and wise wizard, which seems fitting here; "if in doubt, always follow your nose" Enjoy and comment! :)
