Southern Alps

It had been a long time since I last went on a proper adventure, so I made up for it in the weekend. Owen convinced me to go along on a drive into the Southern Alps, even though there was a lot of other things I probably should have been doing. Sometimes I think it might have been better if I didn’t tell everyone the secret way to persuade me into doing any activity…


One of my favourite things about New Zealand is that within a couple of hours you can drive from the coast to the mountains. The scenery was beautiful, although at one point our car did get stuck in the snow and some nice strangers had to help push it out. But of course that just made everything more of an adventure!
