I have been featured in ‘Poms Away! A British Immigrant’s View of New Zealand’ this week, with a guest blog post. Read on to find out what it is about living in New Zealand that has left a lasting impression with us. It won’t be the things you’d expect!

While both Kathryn and I had recovered from our illness by the time we left our rest-break in Bay View campsite near Napier, we were still drained by the ordeal. We looked forward to visiting Taupo and especially Rotorua which is known as the health centre of New Zealand thanks to its active geothermal nature. […]
Wellington was our first destination on the North Island of New Zealand after a beautiful crossing of the Cook Strait, during which we saw a seal and also a whale. We were sad to be leaving the South Island behind but it is safe to say Wellington made quite the impression on us. At first […]
We completed and celebrated our fiftieth shark conservation event this week by speaking at Charles Fleming Ryman’s retirement village in Waikenae, New Zealand. We had high hopes for this event and it was certainly memorable….but perhaps not for the reasons we expected it to be!

After reaching Nelson and catching up on our office work, we managed to squeeze in a brief trip to Abel Tasman and Kahurangi National Parks. We had been planning on a weekend of hiking these national parks, famed for their coastal views and clear blue waters, but it didn’t quite go to plan…
We spent our […]
I knew the West coast of New Zealand would be beautiful but I had no idea it would be so consistently gorgeous as the miles ticked by.
When we left Southland after our Forest & Bird event, I was sad to be saying goodbye to the southern hospitality and, more unusually, the pink silage bales surrounding […]
