Sunny day in Auckland
Auckland has really been putting on some beautiful weather recently!It’s been a real pleasure to get out and reunite with this city, one I’ve always had fond feelings for and loved living in 6 years ago.
Auckland city views
Absolutely loving living in this stunner of a city. It’s a controversial choice as so many people I know from other parts of NZ all ask “Buy why Auckland??” and “You couldn’t pay me to live there!!”But actually.. I love this city. It’s so diverse, the weather is great, there’s always things happening, so many …
Wai-O-Tapu Geothermic Lakes
So beautiful, it’s been a humbling experience to be a tourist in my own country. I’ve seen so many new and wondrous things – like the magnificent lakes and walkways shown here at Wai-O-Tapu, near Rotorua.
National Park, NZ
Such an Iconic Kiwi photo, this one! Snapped it a couple of months back enroute from Christchurch to Auckland on a road trip across New Zealand. Mount doom looming out in the back, Mt Ruapehu just out of shot to the right. It was a beautiful day, too.
Moody Kaikoura views
Snapped this on the Kaikoura coastline of New Zealand’s South Island. A spot famed for seals, sea life and backpackers – it’s a cute wee town a few hours north from where I grew up in ChristchurchAs we passed through this day the weather was showing off Kaikoura’s wilder side.

But despite the radio silence things have …
Life has been chaotic
Not chaotic in a bad way, just in a back-at-work, finding a place to live, last week of semester at school kinda way and I haven’t been posting as daily as I’d like to have been. I have been keeping note of my daily gratitude though, so for days 29 through 35, here’s 7 things …
The Marlborough sounds are so magical
I could pass so much time here. Beautiful morning in Picton and surrounds today as we make our way North towards Wellington on the Interislander Ferry.
Beautiful morning in Picton
Beautiful morning in Picton, exploring the waterfront area & enjoying brunch in the sun before catching the Interislander up to Wellington.
Last view from our lovely Lyttelton house
Today I’m grateful for the last six months that we’ve been able to enjoy this beautiful home and these wonderful views from our front yard. Today we packed up and cleaned up, loaded up our car and said goodbye. A few hiccups along the way, but super thankful to the help of my mum who …
