The NZ Chronicles
 16month since we left the world of 9 to 5, 15 months since we left the UK, 13 months since we arrived in NZ and what have we done?
We've bought and converted a Green 1985 Nissan Caravan into the marvelous Yoda repleat with 2 sofa's, a table, cupboards, curtains, lighting, a bookshelf, wood flooring, treadplates and much much more. We've spent lots of time living in him as we've explored the North Island's Far North, Bay of Plenty, Central Plateau, Auckland, Coromandel Peninsular and West Coast. We've done 3 months paid work and some work in exchange for food and lodgings. We've embarked on the next phase of the adventure now well and truly on South Island. We're workinbg our way around farms WWOOFing (or getting paid wohoo) for some fab people and learning oodles.
Thanks to everyone at home and who we've met around the world for being so supportive & interested and for all the little msgs we get. Hope you're all having fun too where and when possible. |
