Nueva Zelanda – El ultimo Paraiso

“Kiwi-Land” as I affectionately call New Zealand is one of THE very most beautiful places in the whole wide world!

I travelled 14.000kms in a camper van on my own, pretty much once around the South island and once around the North island.  E A C H  and  E V E R Y  night I fell into my campervan-bed suuuuuper stoked and simply so incredibly happy, above all, though, feeling oh-so-lucky to be privileged to experience this paradise.

It doesn’t come as a surprise that New Zealand is also known as “The Last Paradise” and I can only fully agree on that!

Initially my visit should only have lasted 5 weeks. I extended my ticket several times and stayed for 3 months in total. In fact the reason why I left in the end was ’cause I had to:  my Visa was about the expire and I couldn’t renew it from within the country… never mind, I made certainly the most of my time there and experienced soooo many different joy things:  amazing kitesurfing, bungy jumping, snowboarding, sick surfing, white water rafting, paragliding, jet boating and soooooooooooooooo much more!

Many articles have already been published in German, English, and Italian, check out my write-ups right here:
In Italian in “GirLand”-Magazine or in German, split into two parts:  Part 1 South Island and Part 2 North Island or last but certainly not least in English in Kitesurf UK Mag, same here, this article was split into 2 Parts: Part 1 South Island and Part 2 North Island.

Or for the Spanish version in Surf a Vela Magazine simply scroll down and choose:  you can either read the article right here online, or download it and print it out, as you wish 🙂 !

Have fun guys & please send me your feedback, I always  l o v e  2 hear from you,
