New Zealand: Exploring Catlins

In the Catlins there was so much diversity! that we continued our exploration :)

First stop after a healthy breakfast! the beach,

Sea Lions :)

Living the vida loca :)

Next an impressive jungle walk to the Mclean Falls,

This is what amazed us the most in New Zealand the diversity of landscapes. You could be next to the sea with sea lions next you are in a tropical jungle! 

This is what we call lunch with a view :)

Our next walk was from Jungle to Beach,

Next stop the Nuggets at Nugget Point,

This was our last stop in Catlins. We wanted to continue going around the coast but is not possible because of Fiordland. We decided to head to Queenstown for the night and after cross to the opposite coast to see the Franz Josef Glacier

It seems like a lot of driving but the view long the way was amazing,

As good Lord of the Rings Geeks we went to check out of on the filming locations close by Queenstown, these locations were used to represent Isengard and Lothlorien

Next stop Franz Josef Glacier ! 

New Zealand: Queenstown and Te Anau

Our next stop was the famous capital of adrenaline Queenstown!

We had to try this burger everyone talked about! the freg burger .... it was a massiveeeeee burger btw! 

We had ordered two burgers... but we ended up eating just one... that is how massive they are! 

Ahhh what a beautiful view :) 

Something very normal in New Zealand... walking bare foot! 

We had to upgrade a little bit our clothes in New Zealand as it was so cold!! hats, gloves and thermal shirts! instead of getting extremely heavy clothes we choose to use the layering strategy :) 

From Queenstown we drove to Te Anau. We stayed one night in this really cozy hostel! We had our own mountain cabin,

Time to cook dinner! In all the hostels we stayed in NZ there was always a shared kitchen and dinning space. The dinning space in this hostel was really cozyyyyyy! 

Dinner & Planning! 


After dinner! A pool game :) 

 Our next stop an overnight cruise at the Doubtful Sound!
