The Breathtaking Views of NZ

Without a doubt one of my travel highlights was my sadly brief but incredible trip to the South Island of New Zealand.

Before ending my trip and returning to the UK, I decided to book a tour on the Wild Kiwi bus to just see what all the fuss was about. I mean just take a look below to see what the fuss is really all about. It was the most stunning and indescribably beautiful place I've ever visited and just looking at these photos again makes me dribble with longing to get my feet on Kiwi soil again! 

Wonderful State of Victoria

Victoria is arguably one of the best states in Australia (I think they’re all fantastic) - though the weather isn’t as predictable and I was only there 2 weeks, it’s pretty incredible.  

Melbourne

Coogee to Bondi

Or Bondi to Coogee - whichever way you prefer to look at it! 

Luckily, after speaking to some locals, we heard that the best way to plan the walk is from Coogee Beach to Bondi Beach, because let's face it you want to end up on Bondi Beach and by doing the walk in this direction you walk round a corner and get the most spectacular view of this marvellous beach!

My Sydney Highlights

You're lying if you don't find this view simply breath-taking! 

For me - controversially - Sydney was my favourite city in Australia when I went travelling! Very, very closely surpassing the amazingness that is Melbourne, the friendliness, the beauty, the sites and the atmosphere, I'm not sure just how to explain it but the minute we touched down it felt like another home.

Why I Chose to Come Home from Travelling Early?

So when I was travelling I originally set out to be in Australia for 6 months - instead I came home after 3. And yes that meant that I had purchased the 'one in a lifetime' working holiday visa which I did not use.
