Sunny autumn morning at @hapukulodge in Kaikōura

Sunny autumn morning at @hapukulodge in Kaikōura ☀️ I’ve stayed on and off here ever since I moved to New Zealand over a decade ago, and their treehouses never cease to amaze me. Curled up with a book, a giant bed, a toasty fire and views for days, it is certainly hard to check out of here.

In about 2 weeks I’ll set sail for my biggest season yet working in the Arctic at sea with @adventure.canada 🐻‍❄️ and I’m really excited! Starting in Scotland, we’ll be heading off to the Faroes, Iceland, Greenland and all around Canada from the remote Northwest Passage finishing in Newfoundland. I love being at sea and guiding, being part of a team that feels like family 😊 feel free to DM if you’re keen to join me on one of these adventures!

After nearly 100 years, kiwi pukupuku (the little spotted kiwi 🥝🐦) are making a comeback in Nelson/Whakatū! Around 40 of these cuties are moving into @brooksanctuary from their Kāpiti Island digs—making history as the first of their kind to return to the South Island mainland. This moment? 20 years in the making. Fueled by thousands of hours from legends (aka volunteers + staff) who dreamed of kiwi footsteps in the forest once again 💚 I feel so honored to be part of their return!

Autumn in Central Otago 🍂🍁 there’s nothing

Autumn in Central Otago 🍂🍁 there’s nothing better. I took this shot from a scenic helicopter flight around Cromwell years ago. My recent Cromwell helicopter flight couldn’t have been more different. It’s been almost two weeks since I was emergency medivaced to Dunedin hospital at 1am from Cromwell - no photos from that trip lol. I was recovering from a third nose surgery when I hemorrhaged badly a week afterwards at home, nearly 4 hours from the closest hospital (downside of living in rural paradise eh?) An experience that will haunt me for a while, I’m so grateful for my friends and the people who looked after me, especially @otagosouthlandrescuehelicopter and @stjohnnz. This care was free. These organizations are only partly funded by the government and rely on generous donations to care for us, especially folks like me who live rurally and far from hospitals. Thank you to all the rescue teams, EMTs, nurses and doctors who put in the hard yards. I will remember and I know where my next donations will be going. Tēnā koutou ❤️

Who is Young Adventuress?

Hi, I'm Liz, and I got my first taste for traveling when I was 16 years old. On my own, 12 years and 50 something countries later, my wanderlust has only grown and the list of countries I want to visit longer. After living in Spain for the past few years and returning home for a stint, I then quit my job and moved to New Zealand and I've been here ever since. Follow my misadventures as I wander, eat, and photograph my way around the world
