Role of Tour Guide

Fri, 9 Oct 2015 | By kiwiaoraki | Views [886]

Today I was a tour guide to, believe or not, my sister's best friend from kindergarten. Dannielle and Danielle (notice the spelling difference) were inseparable as little girls and we always knew the latter as "Danielle R." A few weeks ago I successfully ... Read more >

Closing Encounters of the Kiwi Kind

Thu, 12 Mar 2009 | By mogsie08-09 | Views [812]

I had to get up for a rediculously early ferry crossing back to the North Island because with my time quickly running out in New Zealand I knew I'd have a real whistlestop tour if I was to fit in everything I still wanted to see and do there. Needless ... Read more >

Trainpass

Sun, 22 Jul 2007 | By karen-and-erik | Views [721]

We bought a trainpass and took the train from Auckland to Wellington, ferry to Picton, train to Chirstchurch and the Tranzalpine to Greymouth and back to Christchurch. It's a good idea, but it lasts only 7 days, so we had to buy a new ticket when we ... Read more >

First Impressions

Sun, 4 Mar 2007 | By vik | Views [586]

I'm trying to fill in time before I go to the airport, and got to thinking about life in NZ... When I first got here life was great, I got picked up from the airport, and tried (and mostly failed) to stay awake and make intelligent conversation with ... Read more >

Christchurch / Banks Peninsula

Fri, 14 Jan 2011 | By mattandandy | Views [562]

First stop in New Zealand was Christchurch which we didn’t spend much time in.  By all accounts the city is pretty boring and still recovering from the earthquake of last year.   (A four pointer aftershock hit a few days after we left; Andy quite ... Read more >

MIlford Sound

Sun, 16 Sep 2012 | By henrika_traveller | Views [383]

I don't particularly like "Must see lists" while I am travelling but I got a feeling I still wanna see Milford Sound and yes I was strongly adviced to see it by my host family. WHile I was working in Tauranga in the North Island, I came across ... Read more >

DAY 53. Waihi Take Three

Sun, 18 Dec 2016 | By joyaroundtheworld | Views [266]

I showered and started to pack up all of my things. I've accumulated so much since the beginning of this trip that I've long ago ran out of room in my pack. I left the hostel and walked down to the waterfront and spent some time there. I meandered around, ... Read more >

9:45 in the evening, my bus pulls into Blenheim Station, I don't often take the easy road and this is no exception. I should have stopped in Christchurch, that was the original plan but I wanted to get a little further; my phone battery just ran out and ... Read more >

Wed, 9 Jan 2013 | By brielle | Photo Gallery | Scholarship Entry

I’m an artist who’s been told she is not worth teaching. Not for lack of wanting to learn. I know just enough about painting and photography to realise how much I need to learn. I kept applying to enrol in a Bachelor of Fine Arts at two different universities ... Read more >

Mon, 14 Jan 2013 | By rhiellis | Photo Gallery | Scholarship Entry

I studied Illustration, so colour palettes, composition and textures are in my mind all the time, but it's only in the past few years that I have started taking photography more seriously. I am self taught and have practiced and practiced, starting ... Read more >
