Homeward Bound



After 395 days of travelling to 27 countries, 34,869kms on the clock, meeting up with family, old friends, making new friends, uncountable bottles of wine and beer it's time to return home, get haircuts and real jobs. We have had so much fun on our adventure and have enjoyed your following along with us on our journey. We hope we have inspired some to do the same. That's all for now folks and see you soon ✈️🇳🇿

Boat Trip

A few shots of our three island boat trip. The day started off a bit dodgy with us not being picked up and we had a 40 min van ride to catch up to the boat. From then on the day just better & better! A fantastic day out with an authentic Croatian lunch in the courtyard of a family home, an open bar on board, sunshine and beautiful swimming beaches. All for about NZ$100.

Montenegro

Today we took ourselves off on a day trip to Montenegro. The Adriatic is a crystal clear blue sea and the scenery along the way was spectacular! This is a very beautiful part of our world.
