Today was a good day. After a few days of waiting for the weather to break, we decided to climb up to Pouaki Hut this morning. When we left Mount Taranaki was still hidden behind its cloak of cloud and we weren't sure if we'd get a view of it. After an aw

I've seen pictures of this famous tree for a few years and had the desire to see it in person ever since. It's now a tourist attraction in itself, but this didn't detract too much. It was cool to sit and people watch after our Roy's Peak climb. The shape

While camping in New Zealand we've managed to find some quiet spots all to ourselves, which often turn out to be our favourites. This lake was a particularly memorable one, being able to lean out the van and see @allycorke enjoying the view was awesome. W

The walk along Hooker Valley was so incredible that I had to do it twice. I left super early in darkness the second time and headed out towards Mount Cook. There was no one around and it was quite eerie crossing the swing bridges alone, especially with th
Edd Cope:
The waterfalls in New Zealand have been crazy so far. This one has been my favourite so far, Devils Punchbowl near Arthur's Pass. The scramble up the rocks to get to this position so super fun too, thanks @allycorke for pressing the all important shutter
Edd Cope:
We've driven some crazy roads so far over in New Zealand but this one takes the crown as the most insane! The road to Milford Sound is like nothing I have ever experienced, huge menacing peaks line the road and piercing white waterfalls cascade down the c
Edd Cope:
Hiking through this sort of landscape with @allycorke has been one of the best parts of our New Zealand trip so far. This was taken on our morning hike down from the mountains after staying overnight in a backcountry hut, Ally looks tiny in the vastness a

We woke to a still morning at a nearby campsite and decided to check out Lake Matheson. Apparently it can be quite rare to see a good reflection here. After a 30 minute stroll round the lake we couldn't believe the view that was in front of us, it was bre

The autumn colours in Wanaka last week were incredible! I spent an amazing afternoon taking way too many photos, including of the famous tree (will post those soon). The town itself has such a relaxed vibe, even though it was busy, we really enjoyed our t

This was one of the most remote places I've ever slept in. It was a four hour hike from where we parked the campervan at the road end - and was so worth it. The hut itself was nestled amongst towering mountains and we didn't see another person the whole n
Edd Cope:
Wow what a day! I've been excited to climb Roy's Peak since we started travelling back in January, to finally stand here felt amazing and the view was pretty spectacular! We started in darkness and made it up before the crowds, it was super special to hav

This is the best and loudest shower I've ever had. Jumping in here was like a metaphor for my time in Australia; I've taken a leap of faith, faced my fears and come out feeling completely refreshed! Thank you to everyone who was so generous with their hos
Edd Cope:
It's our first day in the Grampians and it's already blown my mind. Such an incredible place and a real contrast to the mostly flat surrounding land. This lookout certainly got the adrenaline going, thanks to @allycorke for the click. More photos from our

This awesome sunset marks the furthest north point of our journey up the East Coast of Australia, and what a trip it's been! We couldn't of asked for a better end to the day in Port Douglas and it was amazing to see so many others out enjoying these glori

It was amazing to spend an afternoon at the awesome looking 'Fairy Pools' in Noosa recently. We sat and watched at the edge and after a few minutes the pool was alive with multicoloured fish and crabs 🐠 🐟 - Ally was mesmerised, I'm no

We found paradise in Northern Queensland! After a long walk down Mission Beach in the mid morning humidity we decided to chill for the rest of the day under these awesome looking palm trees. We hardly saw anyone the rest of the day, it felt as if we were

It's been a few days since we visited Whitehaven beach and I'm still struggling to come to terms with it. The sight from the top is unbelievable and has to be one of the best views I've ever witnessed 👌 All I want to do is go back and experience i

The impossibly coloured Lake McKenzie on Fraser Island. I had longed to see this lake in the sun, but arguably it looks just as amazing on a cloudy day. It certainly blew me away. We had such a good trip to the island with an incredible group of people :t
