TRAVEL GALLERY

  • Sometimes the most unassuming, quiet stops by a bridge, a road, a river, can be the most grounding. 📍Gemmels Crossing @waitaki_nz
  • Plug & play wifi from @wirelessnation.nz 😊
  • @dunedinnz just a quick stop for a night or two. We stayed at the @nzmcainc park and wow… the rain really turned it on 🌧️ Still, we made the most of it, popping into the @tuhuraotagomuseum and @toituosm then finishing up at @lanyuandunedinchinesegarden which we absolutely adore. No matter how many times we visit Dunedin, Lan Yuan is always a must.
  • We collected the folks hire motorhome from @soel_outdoors Awesome experience! Very excited!!!
  • We can all enjoy the little things sometimes.
  • The weathers awesome! This parks awesome! It’s going to be an epic stay!! #tasmantravels #top10holidayparks #newzealand #christchurch #travel
  • Sorry, not sorry. We know, we know, we’ll stop when we build, I mean see, haha, a better looking van! 😆👌 #australis #caravaninterior #caravanlife
  • Who’d a thought it! Dump buddies are some of the best caravan accessories you can get!!! 👍 #caravanlife #caravanstorage #caravanning
  • 60km round trip. 🚲 Our longest ride so far on the @sinchbikes Camped up at Pinders Pond, we jumped straight onto the @cluthagoldtrail into Roxburgh Gorge and rode out to Shingle Creek.

  • New @meanderwild bedding day!!!!!!!!! Sea Glass and Gum! What do you think?
  • 📍 Westoby Farm @nzmcainc POP, Tai Tapu @selwyn.nz
  • You chose. We got. Gum by @meanderwild Canny wait! Great 💚 And yes I’m in a liquid laundromat.
  • When we had our @australiscaravansnz caravan built, one of the things we chose to include was @witi_nz 🔐 New Zealand is generally a very safe place to travel, but this caravan is our home, and we really value the extra peace of mind @witiaus gives us. Our setup is fully alarmed, with sensors and an anti-theft brake lock, so we know the van isn’t going anywhere without us. 👍 If you’re having your next @australiscaravans built, we’d definitely recommend getting it fitted from the start. That said, you can also buy @witi_nz separately and fit it to pretty much any setup. Peace of mind is priceless! #tasmantravels #witi #caravan #travel #security
  • Clever car storage hacks by @navigatorgearau We’re into everything this lot have got! Love, love, love it!!!

@dunedinnz just a quick stop for a night or two. We stayed at the @nzmcainc park and wow… the rain really turned it on 🌧️ Still, we made the most of it, popping into the @tuhuraotagomuseum and @toituosm then finishing up at @lanyuandunedinchinesegarden which we absolutely adore. No matter how many times we visit Dunedin, Lan Yuan is always a must.

60km round trip. 🚲 Our longest ride so far on the @sinchbikes Camped up at Pinders Pond, we jumped straight onto the @cluthagoldtrail into Roxburgh Gorge and rode out to Shingle Creek. It wasn’t perfect conditions, steady rain, trees down across the track, a bit of clambering, but honestly, that just added to it. Proper @centralotagonz riding!! A bit wild, a bit gritty, and an epic day on the bikes. Would 100% do it again.

When we had our @australiscaravansnz caravan built, one of the things we chose to include was @witi_nz 🔐 New Zealand is generally a very safe place to travel, but this caravan is our home, and we really value the extra peace of mind @witiaus gives us. Our setup is fully alarmed, with sensors and an anti-theft brake lock, so we know the van isn’t going anywhere without us. 👍 If you’re having your next @australiscaravans built, we’d definitely recommend getting it fitted from the start. That said, you can also buy @witi_nz separately and fit it to pretty much any setup. Peace of mind is priceless! #tasmantravels #witi #caravan #travel #security
