Looking back at the last 12 months

I actually can’t believe it’s been a whole year since I landed in Australia! It’s been an incredible experience from start to finish, and the includes my short time in…

The highs and lows of travelling

Getting back to Melbourne was definitely the right choice. After the failed attempt at farm work, and with nothing else for me in Cairns – other than things that cost…

Cairns and the Great Australian Job hunt

So, it’s been a little while and not much really happened, if I’m honest. When I first arrived in Australia, I wasn’t sure if I was going to do the…

I’m in Cairns! At last! Five weeks this trip has taken me. I’ve seen some amazing things, met some fantastic people and had a few setbacks but that’s normal, right?…

Less complaining, more enjoying. Now that the Greyhound disaster is done, I can get back to enjoying this trip of mine, right? Well, mostly. I’m still suffering from it. The…

After a couple of #stormy days, the #sun returned and I managed to get out for a walk to see #HaruruFalls again. More #water this time for a more dramatic effect #Aotearoa #NewZealand #NorthIsland #Paihia #Waitangi #backpacker #backpackerlife #travel #travelgram #waterfall
I finally made it to #CapeReinga, the most northern point of the country, where the #TasmanSea meets the #PacificOcean. We stopped at #TapotupotuBeach for lunch before driving down the #90MileBeach - but not before some #sandboarding, where I totally didn't wipe out 🙄 #Aotearoa #NewZealand #NorthIsland #tour #DuneRider #beach #coast #backpacker #backpackerlife #travel #travelgram
One of the must visit places while in #Paihia is the #WaitangiTreatyGrounds, which is just a short walk away. There's so much history here, on the site where the treaty was drafted and first signed. Combine a #guidedtour with a #traditional cultural performance for an amazing #experience. I finished the day with a walk to the #HaruruFalls, as who doesn't like a #waterfall? #Aotearoa #NewZealand #NorthIsland #BayofIslands #WaitangiTreaty #Maoriwelcome #Maoriceremony #history #backpacker #backpackerlife #travel #travelgram
Today was awesome. I went on a tour of a part of the #BayofIslands to see the #HoleintheRock, as well as stopping off at #OteheiBay. Then I explored #Russel, making it up to #FlagstaffHill and finally #TapekaPoint for more stunning #views! #Aotearoa #NewZealand #NorthIsland #backpacker #backpackerlife #travel #travelgram
Took a walk up to #MtEden for #sunset and got this stunning view of #Auckland. Well worth the trek and a great way to cap off the end of my first stint here. I'll be back soon! #Aotearoa #NewZealand #NorthIsland #Aucklandcity #backpacker #backpackerlife #travel #travelgram
Today I took a #ferry to #RangitotoIsland and climbed to #rangitotosummit, stopping at the #RangitotoLavaCaves for a spooky little #diversion. Those #views are amazing and you can see #Aucklandcity in the distance and close up on the trip back! #Aotearoa #NewZealand #NorthIsland #Auckland #Rangitoto #island #lavacaves #backpacker #backpackerlife #travel #travelgram
