I went to University in Wellington for the last few years and honestly it's crazy seeing you guys cruising round the streets I got so used to calling a second home I love Wellington and it's awesome culture Also great to see you heading around the North island as a lot of people write it off a bit and just go to the South island which is great for adventure and nature travel but culture is definitely more prominent throughout the North island It's also crazy to think that those lush green hills you guys describe are like normal to me, and definitely makes me feel lucky to call this place home How are you finding driving on the left?

Consider flying to Nelson if you don't have great sea-legs, or buy a flexible ferry ticket so you can cherry-pick your crossing. FYI - the Cook Strait is one of the most dangerous stretches of water in the world (due to its tidal anomalies) - in 1968 the interisland Ferry Wahine sunk close to the entrance of Wellington Harbour, with a loss of over 50 lives. Of course things have improved since then - crossings are cancelled if required.

Hope you loved Wellington, spoilt for all kinds of culture choice. Thanks for getting a cabin on the ferry, been on the ferry a few times, but not seen the cabin. I'm so getting a family one next time to chill out in peace. Though the views of the sounds are always incredible, too beautiful to miss.

Love that you're enjoying the fab kiwi tucker. A heads-up if you have more time in Wellington is to head up to the spectacular Taraura Forest Park (approx. 90 km north of Wellington. Smart move staying in Picton - the crossing can be rough and a car journey afterwards unwelcome. Beware milkshakes, lol

Not sure if anyone else is seeing this but in this particular video (esp at Cockles) you both look so incredibly relaxed and happy. It's just something in your eyes but it's clear you're both in a good place there and I absolutely love it Put me in a great mood too. Safe travels

I prefer the Brother chemistry I have found every woman I have traveled with, I ended up regretting it. Oddly enough my brother and I were always the best choice or solo. [nothing against the Gal, she seems like a sweetheart

OMG. You guys are awesome. My wife and I travel a lot. We definitely have New Zeeland on our bucket list. Thank you for giving me more of an insight and on getting around on the Ferry boats. :)

Loved seeing my hometown Wellington in your videos. Classic Welly weather. I absolutely love the ferry trip, especially once you get into the Sounds. But driving onto the ferry is always a bit scary

Cant wait to see more Visited Australia about 15years ago but didnt have the time to go to New Zealand. Ive heard it compared to Canada sometimes except for the abundance of sheep

Thanks again vagabrothers for bringing us in one of the countries where I almost lived in. I wish I could go there but thanks for giving me a glimpse of how is it to travel there.
