New Zealand is a country of rare seismic beauty: glacial mountains, fast-flowing rivers, deep, clear lakes, hissing geysers and boiling mud. There are also abundant native forests, long, deserted beaches and a variety of fauna, such as the kiwi, endemic to its shores. Any number of vigorous outdoor activities - tramping (hiking), skiing, rafting and, of course, that perennial favourite, bungy jumping - await the adventurous. You can swim with dolphins, gambol with newborn lambs, whale-watch or fish for fattened trout in pristine streams and rivers.

South East calling

Thu, 10 May 2012 | By henrika_traveller | Views [39]

3 lazy weeks have passed in Auckland. I haven't been lucky or tried hard enough to find a clean office job. Not even close since the agencies are not passing my Cvs to their clients. I applied for all sorts of contract/temp customer service/office administration.... Read more >

Still in a job hunt and getting organized

Mon, 30 Apr 2012 | By henrika_traveller | Views [52]

It has been a bit over week in New Zealand, Auckland and I am staying in the backpackers closer to the city. The hostel is pretty nice. It is full of Germans though but I think I can live with that, at least temporarily even if I'd prefer to listen ... Read more >

New Zealand- somewhere on the edge of Auckland

Wed, 25 Apr 2012 | By henrika_traveller | Views [62]

The first impression of New Zealand when I arrived last Friday 20th of April: the quietness, the chilly weather and the beautilful sunset. I had booked a hostel pretty far from the city, after 2 busy weeks in Australia, I didn't want to go straight to ... Read more >
