Update – congrats to Kendra for winning the trip to New Zealand with me in October 2017 – we still have spots available on my next trip in March 2018
Hello all!
In March this year I hosted for my very first group trip around New Zealand with Haka Tours. It was fun and epic and I decided I wanted to do some more.
Last week I announced two more adventure tours with me around New Zealand. The first trip is 12 days and goes around the South Island. This was the same trip I did with Haka Tours way back when in 2013 and it’s pretty much what made me move to Wanaka. You’ve been warned.
From sleeping under the stars in the Abel Tasman National Park to walking beneath glacier to swimming in turquoise lakes to throwing yourself off very high places to drinking wine under the sun in pretty much the most epically beautiful country in the world, I promise it’s going to be amazing.
The second trip is in March 2018 next year and it’s a bit fancier, it’s for 14 days and goes around both islands.
But this week when I was catching up with Haka Tours, I realized I haven’t done a giveaway on here in quite a while.
Can you forgive me?
Well, you better because we’ve decided I’m going to give one of you guys a spot on my October trip around New Zealand with Haka Tours. Wahoo! Come join me for 12 amazing days as I show you all my favorite spots around the South Island.
Here is your chance for a free trip to New Zealand (minus flights, sorry!)
The giveaway will run for the next week and end at noon Wednesday September 6, 2017 NZ time (8pm EST Tuesday Sept 5th). You can enter below on Rafflecopter. Be sure to leave me a comment below and tell me why you want to visit New Zealand! Good luck!
Here’s a little visual inspiration to get you excited!

Hi Liz
Have been following you on FB and Instagram…It has been a wish for me to visit New Zealand with family…With it’s breathtaking scenery…Wanted to visit ever since I came to know that LOTR was shot there..Bit now it’s more than that..
yay!
I found your blog years ago, and not only has it definitely led me to some of my favorite adventures (The Book Mill in western MA!), but reading about your travels helped me get up the guts to do more solo traveling of my own. : )
Honestly, between Lord of the Rings, Elizabeth Knox, and Eleanor Catton, pretty much all my reasons for wanting to go to New Zealand are literary, but I’d also really love to explore all the food!
OMG yes! that place is magical!
Hi! I’m from the DC, USA area and ready for a change of pace! I’ve had the wanderlust bug ever since I graduated last year and now that I’ve done some cross county road trips, New Zealand is at the top of my bucket list. I’m ready to take a break from my crazy stressful life to meet some great people, make memorable stories and of course travel to Middle Earth! ?
yes come over, you’re from from where I’m from!
