I'm all packed up and ready for my three week adventure through New Zealand! This trip was graciously funded by a Garrett Grant at Calvert. During my time in NZ I'll visit schools in Auckland and Motueka, join a week long outdoor school group and participate in many adventures including: ropes courses, Auckland Bridge climb, cave tubing and glacier climbing.
I'll be renting a car and stopping in the following places: Auckland, Bucklands Beach, Hamliton, Tauranga, Rotorua, Taupo, Turangi,Wellington, Nelson, Motueka, Greymouth, and Christchurch.
Another part of the adventure is the fact that I'll be travelling solo. Anyone that knows me knows that if I'm left alone for over an hour I get bored and lonely so this should be interesting!
Stay tuned for pictures and stories. After 30 hours of travel beginning tomorrow at 7am, I'll be arriving in Auckland on Friday morning to start my adventures!
Good luck Stacy. I'll be following you on here for the duration of your trip!

ReplyDeleteThat's Maori for "safe travels above water." My grandfather is part Maori (native New Zealand aboriginal) and taught me the language. Try to speak some when you get there!
