Travel News

How far did I travel this week?:

We drove a total of 1350 miles in seven days. My friends and I stayed in a different place every single night. Every morning, we would pack up our things and drive to another part of New Zealand.

How far have I traveled on this journey so far?:

I've traveled about 3000 miles since starting my study abroad semester in Australia. My road trip in New Zealand is the most that I have traveled in a week.

How did I get around this week?:

We drove a car, which was difficult at first, because Australia and New Zealand drive on the opposite side of the road from what I am used to. They drive on the left, but in the United States, we drive on the right.

What was the most interesting place I visited this week?:

I loved visiting Milford Sound, which is a body of water in between the mountains. There was a large waterfall that we got to go kayaking near.

Other Travel News from this week:

During our trip, we met so many people who were also traveling in New Zealand. We met people from Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, the U.S. and Australia.
