North Island:

South Island:

  • Nov 1-8: After taking the ferry over from the North Island, W+L will be traveling through the Tasman and Marlborough areas, and doing a kayak trip in Abel Tasman National Park. 
  • Nov 9-19: Dear friends Andrew "Schmema" Jesien, Alyssa Zirk, and Kevin Meehan will be joining us for the most scenic portions of the trip: the western coast of the south island, Mt. Cook National Park, and parts of Otago and Fiordland. 
  • Nov 20-Dec 8: W+L will be WWOOFing through other parts of Otago and Fiordland and attempting to save some money as they explore this beautiful part of the country.
  • Dec 9-Dec 15: W+L will be traveling up the eastern coast of the south island, and making some decisions about where they would like to settle down for the next six months or so!
