Raglan is a gorgeous surf town just a couple of hours from New Zealand’s biggest city – but the pace of life could not be more different. When you visit you’ll feel that surfy, relaxed vibe straight away, whether you’re here to cruise the waves, check out tasty food, or just breathe in some of that salty fresh air.

August was a pretty classic month of winter hibernation for me, although I did take an amazing girls’ trip away to the Coromandel too. It was one of the rainiest months on record, which was excellent for my blog writing at least. And we had plenty of time to start plotting summer adventures! Here’s what I did manage to get up to…
I’ve visited Sydney a few times as an adult, and this trip was all about catching up with Joe’s family, and seeing Sydney through their locals’ eyes. Which meant great cafes and beaches, just what I like!
One of my main goals when I moved back to New Zealand was to spend as much time exploring this beautiful country of mine as I had previously spent exploring Europe. Our first big adventure was to spend four days cycling the South Island’s stunning Otago Rail Trail.
