20 Photos That Will Make You Book Your Flights to New Zealand

New Zealand; the home to absolutely mind-blowing mother freaking nature. 

It's no secret that I have fallen head over heels for this country and have been lucky enough to explore a good chunk of it. Each trip I make, I am delighted by the stunning beauty that I am treated to. 

If you don't have a trip to New Zealand on your bucket list, you're about to.

I want to share some of my favourite photos that I have taken in the last 12 months and if they don't convince you to book a flight to New Zealand then you've lost your goddamn mind. 

1. Lake Matheson; South Island

You can find this beautiful lake close to Fox Glacier on the wild West Coast. Try to visit in the morning to maximise chances of a perfectly still lake.

A Guide to Travelling the North Island of New Zealand with Stray

Disclosure; this is quite possibly the longest blog post in the history of blog posts. So settle in, grab yourself a glass bottle of wine, some chip n dip and get ready to add New Zealand's North Island to your travel plans & book yourself a Stray Pass. 

A roadtrip around New Zealand is probably hot on everyone's bucket lists; whether you hire a car, camper or travel round by coach. 

Because I am behind with the times and haven't caught onto this whole driving trend, I rely on tours or buses or group trips to get about. No fear though; Stray New Zealand are here to save the day. 

Stray are a hop-on-hop-off bus company within New Zealand, or "freestyle" travel as the kids are calling it now. There are SO MANY passes you can choose from; if you want to see just the North, just the South, a bit of both, OR THE WHOLE SHABANG! Stray's got you covered.
