Hallo Freunde, jetzt bin ich zur Zeit in Qatar. Der Flug im A380 war sehr schön! Dieser " sanfte Riese" fliegt Dich mit ~930 km/h an jedes Ziel und der Komfort hat auf jeden Fall gestimmt. Es ist während des Fluges Nacht geworden und ich ... Read more >

A New Zealand North Island visit with the Sorkins

Our first order of business upon arrival at Auckland was meeting our new German friend from the China trip, Stef. We got drinks by the water, followed by ramen, the fanciest ice cream and lots of booze. It was great to catch up and hear how her time ... Read more >

Wed, 30 Aug 2017 | By kiwiaoraki | Views [856]

For the past few weeks I've been in Queenstown again...a place I absolutely love with the Remarkables, abundant snow, and gorgeous lakefront. After visiting my family and feeling rejuvinated in Pennsylvania by staying at the home of good ol' mum, I was ... Read more >
