This was my trip to New Zealand. A lot of people say that the South Island is the better island, but my time on the North Island was pretty damn good. I wonder if the South Island is just downright incredible then. I guess there is only one way to tell. I’ll be back, I would be crazy not to. This country is so full of adventure and wonder and I have barely scratched the surface. I can’t wait to see more.
