New Zealand

New Zealand is such an easy destination to visit and one that I have travelled to so many times (I've lost count!).   My travels have included the North and South islands.  Head north of Auckland to visit the Bay of Islands, or head south to visit Hobbiton (Lord of the Rings) Rotorua, Lake Taupo, and Mount Ruapehu if you are into skiing.   South Island is where I've visited Queenstown and Wanaka for skiing, the Fiordlands, and Central Otago region for wines. Self driving is really the best way to travel this beautiful country.
