Hitchhiking Through New Zealand

February 25, 2017 by John R6 Comments

I had just spent two weeks riding around the North and South Islands of New Zealand with close friends. We rented a car, bought a teepee, and spent our days checking out the gorgeous scenery and nights spent under the stars. We had a blast, but now my friends were gone. I was all alone. The time had come to finally start hitchhiking. New Zealand is notorious for hitchhiking. The country is filled with friendly people who are used to picking … [Read more...]

A 3-Day Itinerary on Kangaroo Island, South Australia

August 16, 2016 by Patricia Pagenel2 Comments

We started our 3-week stay in Australia with 3 days on Kangaroo Island. The appeal of Australia was without surprise its rich and unique wildlife. Kangaroo Island seems to encompass many of what we looked for. Why Kangaroo Island? The third largest island in Australia with 155 km long and 55 km wide (96 miles by 34 miles), Kangaroo Island is not on the tourist trail and has stayed untouched from the big tourism. Indeed, a third of the island … [Read more...]

Weather you venture to Te-Ika-a-Maui, or Te Wai Pounamu (that’s North and South island for all of you not versed in Māori) you will feel like you stepped into a dream. This country of fantasy, has not only … [Read more...]

Cultural Differences and Odd Superstitions

June 8, 2016 by John BLeave a Comment

It is a truth universally acknowledged that tourists on holiday are likely to make fools of themselves. From telling an Italian to “rock on” with the seemingly-innocent hand gesture (which locally implies that his wife is being unfaithful) to giving a local Thai guide the thumbs-up (the native equivalent of the middle finger), it’s perfectly easy for the travelling man to offend his hosts, be ejected from a taxi and eternally shame himself, all … [Read more...]

Where to Travel First?

March 27, 2016 by Dave TomlinsonLeave a Comment

A Whole World to Travel – Where to go First? The answer to this question will often be dictated by your budget and where in the world you live. It also depends largely on your confidence. My first genuine travel experience was to the US which was an ideal introduction to becoming a backpacker. My destination was a summer camp where I would spend three months adjusting to the American culture and lifestyle. It was the perfect springboard for … [Read more...]
