  • Day 224-30 – Auckland

    Over the next few days, we realised that we were getting too lazy so we started to plan our next destination. Over the following days we packed our bags, planned routes and said good bye to friends and family. Six days later we said goodbye to our family and boarded the world’s longest commercial flight.

  • Day 223 – Auckland

We ended up having to cross the Waitakere Stream. After crossing the stream, we entered a field with a […]

Unfortunately, we didn’t have a chance to look around Christchurch as we wanted to last night. We boarded our Jetstar flight […]

  • Day 195-200 Auckland, NEW ZEALAND

    Friends and Family Time We landed in Auckland around 1am and we were surprisingly awake. The flight with Air New Zealand was refreshing due to little things like blankets and entertainment systems. At the airport, we had to show our hiking shoes to customs, but they let us through without any issues, as I had […]
