I met Jorden in the hostel in my first week.

We got along really well right away and went on small day trips together. A week later, two Canadians and three Germans arrived at the hostel. We quickly decided that we would start a trip together. We drove to Akaroa in the southwest for 2 days. We spent 2 nights at a campsite there.


At this campsite, we decided to spend Christmas together. After two nights, we continued driving south and our destination was the student city of Dunedin in the southwest of the South Island. We traveled there with two stops.

When we arrived in Dunedin, we looked for a hostel and checked in. Then we went to Tunnel Beach. Once again, an impressive landscape.

After this cool experience, we went shopping for our upcoming Christmas dinner and then returned to the hostel. The Canadian and I slept in the car in the hostel parking lot to have some peace at night.

Tomorrow, we will bring some Germany to New Zealand with our Christmas dinner. We will have schnitzel with red cabbage. Unfortunately, without the good Iglo red cabbage. But before we support another brand, we decided to prepare it ourselves. Let's see how it turns out.

I wish everyone a Merry Christmas time with family and friends and I will spend my first Christmas at the beach.

Best regards,

Your Max
