Homebound via Rotorua | Okere Falls | Rotorua Canopy Tours | Kerosene Creek | Rangipo Desert | NZ
In October 2016, I spent a few days in the Central North Island region of New Zealand.
On day 6, I made the journey home from Taupo to Wellington. However, I didn't take a direct route, instead opting to come back via Rotorua for some adventure and exploring. My first stop was the Rotorua Canopy Tours for zip lining and feeding a bird a worm on my hand. The next stop was lunch by Lake Rotorua. After that, I continued north to Okere Falls where there was beautiful jade water and the ruins of an old powerhouse. Finally I headed southward, bound for Wellington with a stop at Kerosene Creek to soak my feet in the hot springs and a stop on the Rangipo Desert to watch the sunset behind Mount Ruapehu. It was magic!

As an avid travel fan I've done many trips overseas trips to explore the world, learn about history & culture, experience adventure and try exotic food. However recently, I've decided to put more effort into exploring my own beautiful country - New Zealand. People come from all over the world to see NZ and rave about how amazing it is. It is time for me to see the beauty that sits right on my doorstep.
