If you ever visit the North Island of New Zealand, you must find a way to make it to Taupo. Yes Lake Taupo is beautiful and of course there are many types of extreme sports available, but do not miss the glorious Huka Falls!

Read MoreOur New Zealand adventures continue in the North Island. First stop, Auckland. Wish we had nicer things to say, but the city seemed more sleepy than the happening place I had imagined it to be. Was it the weather? The Season? The Location or the Time of Day we visited?

Read MoreToday, we had to say goodbye to Wendekreisen as our trip in the South Island comes to a conclusion. Traveling around in an RV has been an amazing experience.

An eye opening experience for sure. We will miss you Wendekreisen. South Island, you are gorgeous!
