Hey, We are on the final leg of our New Zealand trip now on our way back up to Christchurch. We had a brilliant few days in Queenstown which is absolutely beautiful and we are now in Dunedin. Dunedin is the second biggest city in the South Island which isn't really saying much but after the places we have been to it seems like an absolute metropolis! I feel like a bit of a traitor today because despite living in Birmingham for 4 years I never visit...

Today Nik, Caroline and Loz did a sky dive in Wanaka, I chickened out but majorly regretted it afterwards when they were raving about it.

We were really lucky and it was an absolutely gorgeous morning and as we...

Hey, We have left the North Island of NZ now and are in the south. We are also finished with our bus tour. The last few days on the tour were amazing despite the fact that quite alot of the things we were supposed to do were rained off! We were supposed to do something called the Tongariro crossing which is supposed to be a stunning walk across a volcano but it wasnt possible! But our time was still spent well! We went to see something called Craters of...
