Travel Guide to New Zealand
One of the things that motivated me to restart the blog was the large number of requests from people we have wanting to come and visit New Zealand and needed some advice. We have put together some a series of posts ranging from how to get here, how long should you stay, what you need, what to expect and some very specific ideas of what to do. We hope it helps you plan your amazing trip here.
About Us
I grew up in the Pacific Northwest spending an inordinate amount of time wandering around in the outdoors hiking, fishing, playing sports, and riding my bike. My Dad instilled a great joy of nature and what it has to offer. I have never lost that appreciation.
Susanne grew up in Caracas, Venezuela with an American dad and mom from Spain. She learned Spanish and English at the same time. She came to the US in 1980 to attend college. When you ask her where she is from, she will tell you that she is a citizen of the world.
We have been together since 1985 where we met in college at UC Santa Barbara; Susanne was studying molecular biology and I was studying geology. We got married in 1989 and have never looked back. We have been partners in life for over 35 years.
We appreciate the simple things like solitude and a beautiful sunset, but also love the uniqueness of cultures from around the world. We love to travel because it has a way of opening up your mind, forcing you to rethink your priorities, and instilling gratitude for the wonderful things life can bring you.
