Cathedral Cove – one of the nicest beaches At least 40 minutes bush walk to get there! But it does worth! Golden sand beach, turquoise clean water, few trees, rocks and nothing else! This is a small piece of haven! And the drive to get there – spectacular!
Driving around the Coromandel Peninsula, we stopped at an information point in Thames to ask about hiking tracks in the area – the Pinnacles which takes about 4-5 hours up to approximately 800 m. It was already late afternoon, so we wouldn’t have had time to come back. We decided to spend the night up […]
After 2 days in Auckland, we decided to start our journey towards the North with a 1997 Honda van that we rented from Syd. After 100 km the battery broke and we had to return to Auckland. But that was great! Syd had to replace our car and gave us an even older one, but […]
We landed in Auckland in the evening and went for the ultimate couchsurfing experience at Syd’s. He’s a Maori, probably my father’s age, has worked as a policeman, is currently selling old cars and is probably one of the biggest couchsurfing hosts in the whole world! He has a 5 room house with garage and […]
For those who are still wondering which is the coolest city in the world, we found it!!! Amazing vibe and energy on the streets, people playing the guitar, the violin or just singing; smile and happiness! Beaches, harbor, rocks, hills, skyscrapers & small buildings, parks, barbecue, luxury malls, Asian fast foods, cozy restaurants, rooftops, opera, […]
Yes, the Great Ocean Road is great! Wonderful landscapes, beautiful nature, but the pictures below can speak for themselves. First, I will share some Australian curiosities. In Australia you drive on the left!?!? Why would you do that??? I think Australians love to be surrounded by other people. But this is probably not something new […]
We haven’t spent much time in Melbourne and we mostly followed touristic walks: Eureka tower, Australian Open village, Victoria library, Queen Victoria Market, Australian Center for Contemporary Art, Flinders street and so on. The city has a nice mix of different architectures and cool ambiance. It is really colorish and artistic. We also met […]
Yeeeyyyyy!!! Check-in, drop-off luggage, 40 minutes delay in Dubai, but we finally got on the flight to Kuala Lumpur! Happiness, calm, movies, sleep, food, all good. Hey, we are almost there! But with this delay, we only had 90 minutes left to get off the plane, check-out, take luggage, go to the other terminal, check-in, […]
Here we are, we left home for one year on the 19th of January, having as first destination Dubai. I will not write too much about Dubai. All in all, it was more than expected. It has a nice mix of big skyscrapers with great architecture and traditional white Arabic houses. But with too much […]
