Ha, just kidding! This koala doesn’t have a name, but it could very well have been Kenneth. 😉 When you tour the Great Ocean Road, chances are you’re going to stop at Kenneth River. It’s a road with heaps of trees on both sides and in those trees you can see many koalas in theirContinueContinue reading “Kenneth, the koala”

Surprise gem of a place
This wasn’t even a place on my list of areas to visit when I was in New Zealand. My travel partner and I had spent some time in Nelson and were heading out of town and on to other places to explore. The hostel owner recommended Nelson Lakes N.P. to us. She said how beautifulContinueContinue reading “Surprise gem of a place”
The road less travelled
Trekking from hut to hut through amazing nature, enjoying the most amazing scenery along the Routeburn Track was quite invigorating. Forget the aching, forget the sweating, this is when I felt alive…and I’d do it all over again.

Last time I was in that area, I did aContinueContinue reading “Great Ocean Road”
You live, you learn
The Fjällräven Classic, it’s been well over a year ago that I participated in this daunting trek. No, I didn’t finish the trekking, but I’ve finally made my peace with it. Had I known then what I know now, I would have done a lot of things differently. I suppose that is what life is all about:ContinueContinue reading “You live, you learn”
Hostelling series: five ‘must packs’
What to pack for a backpacking trip? Personally, I find it easier to pack for longer travels than a short holiday because on a long trip at least I know I’ll have to wash my clothes at some point and that refrains me from bringing too much. Everyone will know the basics of jacket, fleece, pants, vest,ContinueContinue reading “Hostelling series: five ‘must packs’”
