Emotional chaos

Hello everyone. I have been a bit lazy with photography the last few days. Thanks to Beate, I finally had some good bread in New Zealand and a proper breakfast. It seems one...

Upon arriving in Wellington, it was time to park the car (next time I best not park incorrectly -100$) and pack the backpack for the hostel. I spent the first 3 nights at the...

I took the cable car to the highest point in Wellington and had a beautiful view of the harbour and the city. The old cable car, see photo, is in the museum and used to take...

The moral commotion on the harbor tour: a shitty traffic light man woman!

First a picture-perfect sunrise, then a fresh breeze around your nose - from Napier to Welliongton.

In the morning we drive to Picton and sit in the harbor with a coffee. We're trying to plan our remaining weeks on the North Island. We don't succeed so well and we decide to...

We arrive in Wellington late in the evening and spend the night in a terrible parking lot. It's right on the main street, it's full to capacity and a guy next to us is talking...

Tomorrow we're going on the ferry, today New Zealand's capital

The capital of New Zealand is Wellington and not Auckland. Just like Canberra is the capital of Australia and not Sydney. (and also like back then in Germany, Bonn and not...

“Must have one” is written on the number plate. And when you look at the car you can easily see that it must be a car enthusiast. Apparently you can freely configure the license...

After 4 very hiking-heavy days with beautiful weather in Tongariro NP, rain was forecasted here - time to load up the car and head west (the east would not have been a good idea...

24.02.2020 I had to leave the beautiful hotel this morning. Then I went to pick up the car that I will be using for the next 21 days. The goal was to go to Picton, where I have...

Wellington, the capital of New Zealand. The parking spaces are hard to come by and quite expensive in comparison. We have to wait here for our camper, as the refrigerator is...
